As an owner of a VW TDI vehicle I will say the mileage is unbelievable. On the other hand the maintience and the repair cost for anything that goes wrong with them is a death sentence. The cost of repairs and upkeep has killed the offset for the increase in mileage. I get around 43mpg out of a 13 gallon tank which is great, but all the repairs and the maintience alone is freaking high. This car has been a major pain in my ass and because of all its problems Id never own another VW again. For that fact this will be my first and last foriegn car ever in this house. Once my wife is out of nursing school in about 1.5 years her Toyota is gone( even tho no problems out of her car) so she can get the new Equinox. So two less foreign cars on the road, and back to GM for me.
