That's why Volkswagen's engine is east of aluminum and magnesium alloys (even lighter than aluminum). | Volkswagen reduces dead weight in still other ways. The engine is air-cooled--no Bulky radiator. (No water to freeze in winter, or boil over in summer.) An oil-cooler, usually found only on high-priced sports cars, is standard on the Volkswagen. And placing the engine in the back gets rid of the conventional heavy driveshaft while giving direct drive to the wheels. In mud, sand ahd snow, where other cars skid, youn go. You get up to 40 miles per gallon. Volkswagen's engine ean take top-speed driving all day long without strain. Definitely . , . the toughest 198 lbs. going!

Volkswagen's ingenious engineering gives you other benefits, tos Torsion bar suspension, independent on all four wheels, provides riding comfort even big cars can't match, Spin German craftsmanship goes into every detail of the Volkswagen. In fact, a gold watch is given for every Volkswagen driven 60,000 miles without a major repair . , . and more than 150,000 have been awarded?
