Volkswagen has announced that it will begin a pilot scheme to test 20 prototype E-Golf Battery Electric Vehicles over a nine-month period in select locations in the U.S. Twelve of these vehicles will be allocated to selected Volkswagen employees during the time period. By studying E-Golf use across multiple geographical regions, Volkswagen will monitor the effect of climate conditions, driving patterns, and energy performance; the data and insights gained during the scheme will be used in the final development of future EV technology applications.

Volkswagen is working hard at being green while keeping mobile with their innovative electric bicycle, called the Bik.e.  It is just a concept vehicle for now, but with such handy features as folding small enough to fit in your car trunk and recharging while it's there, we hope that it makes it to production someday soon!

In addition to all the green initiatives that our dealerships and management company already employ, we are now partnering with Ray's Trash Service in developing a company-wide recycling program. We will begin to place various recycling bins throughout the dealerships to collect paper, cans and plastics. It is our goal to begin a process where we can accumulate all mixed recyclables and reduce the number of trash pickups per week.
