Tanner Foust struggled for two days this weekend to podium for the VW-Andretti Rallycross team. HIs efforts were good as he did take enough championship points to sit in second place,

It took only five months of work to set VW's ID. R. electric race car and top-of-the-automaker's ID. family but when the engineers were finished they knew they had a winner.

For the second time in two years, Volkswagen's three-row crossover/SUV, the Atlas, received the magazine's "Best" award. Said Derrick Hatami, executive vp of sales, marketing and after sales, the automaker is "delighted that Parents magazine has now honored the Atlas for a second year.”

Like the retro-futuro I.D. Buzz, Volkswagen has again gone to the past for inspiration for a modern, yet retro, two-place dune buggy. The new I.D. Buggy will join the I.D. electric family.

For the second year in a row, the Volkswagen Atlas received the coveted MotorWeek Drivers' Choice Award. The popular cable show said the SUV was the top in its category out of the many vehicles that its editors review. The winner was named at the Chicago Auto Show.
