Nice plug for 2010 Volkswagen Golf models in WSJ article: "Volkswagen offers the only diesel in this economy-car category. For $22,155 it can go 30 miles per gallon in the city and 42 on the highway. I think this is the most desirable of the compact cars. Its fuel economy approaches the Prius level, yet it has a lot of power and feels especially zippy around town. It is also the cheapest diesel on the market (most cost more than $40,000)."
