When the gates open at the IAA, six new BlueMotion models will also make their debut - from 2008 onward Volkswagen will offer nine vehicles under the BlueMotion label.

Volkswagen has also taken notice of this year’s official motto of the IAA – "see what's driving tomorrow." In response to this message, Volkswagen will also display a prototype. The heart of this sensationally flexible City Expert will beat where the flat-four "Boxer" engine once did in the Beetle.

Volkswagen will welcome visitors to the IAA in an exposition area of 9,000 square metres. The centre piece of that space will be the Tiguan. It is the world's first production model exclusively equipped with supercharged engines and offers two advantages in particular: lower fuel consumption whilst still being fun to drive. Also new is the remarkably quiet four-cylinder diesel engine with common-rail injection. The two new TDIs produce 103 kW and 125 kW. Both engines already conform to the Euro 5 exhaust standards that will be introduced in 2009. On the Volkswagen stand you will be able to "see what's driving tomorrow" here and now.
