We’re just a few weeks away from the 2017 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas! This event is one of the world’s largest consumer electronics trade shows, and people from all over the world come to check out the latest and greatest in consumer electronics. As a part of their vision of future mobility, Volkswagen will be presenting at CES, showcasing their plan to connect people, vehicles, and their environment. To illustrate this vision will be the popular I.D. electric vehicle, debuting for the first time in the United States!
“Thanks to App Connect, our customers can already connect just about any smartphone with their vehicle – but with the Volkswagen User-ID we’re taking things a major step further”, says Dr Volkmar Tanneberger, Head of Electrical and Electronic Development at Volkswagen. “The seamless integration of Partner Services combined with our own online services will create an entirely new user experience”.
The 2017 CES will be taking place from January 5th through the 8th. Stay tuned to the Fiore Volkswagen blog – we’ll keep you updated on the show!

Volkswagen’s Electrify America
If you’re interested in learning more about Volkswagen’s mission to improve electric mobility, we invite you to take a look at their brand new website called “Electrify America.” Over the next decade, Volkswagen plans to invest two billion dollars to support and raise awareness for zero emission vehicle technology. They plan to build a network of convenient and reliable chargers to make traveling to work, around town, and across the country easier. Volkswagen hopes this investment will allow Americans all over the country to enjoy and understand the benefits of driving electric.
Here’s how they plan to do it.
- Starting in 2017, Volkswagen will install over 300 chargers locally in 15 metro areas. They will also install over 200 stations across the country. These chargers could be in apartment complexes, office parks, shopping malls, parking lots, and along high trafficked highways.
- Volkswagen wants to increase awareness and educate Americans about electric vehicles and the benefits of them on society. They plan to do this through educational programs, ride and drives, and social media.
- Volkswagen is choosing a city in California, which has yet to be disclosed, to act as a guinea pig for their sustainable mobility future. They will pilot ideas such as ZEV transit, ZEV-based shuttle service, and an EV-based car-sharing program (which we discussed in the last blog).

The Top Safety Pick Ratings have been released by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety for the year 2017 and Volkswagen has emerged as a clear leader in vehicle safety. Six of Volkswagen’s models earned a Top Safety Pick or Top Safety Pick+ from the IIHS.
To earn the Top Safety Pick award, a vehicle must earn a “good” rating in five categories including frontal impact small overlap, frontal impact moderate overlap, roof strength, side impact, and head restraints. In addition, it must offer an autonomous emergency braking system that receives an “advanced” rating for front crash prevention. To earn the distinction of a Top Safety Pick+, a vehicle must meet all of these aforementioned criteria, plus have headlights that earn an “acceptable” rating for visibility and lack of glare.
The 2017 Volkswagen Golf Four-Door, 2017 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack, 2017 Volkswagen Golf GTI Four-Door, 2017 Volkswagen Golf Sportwagen, and 2017 Volkswagen Passat were all recognized with the Top Safety Pick, while the 2017 Volkswagen Jetta was given the 2017 Top Safety Pick+ award.
“At Volkswagen, we strongly believe that the latest advanced driver assist technologies can be delivered without being in the premium segment,” said Hendrik Muth, Senior Vice President, Product Marketing and Strategy. ”The IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK and TOP SAFETY PICK+ ratings awarded to a variety of Volkswagen models compliments our ongoing commitment to offering these features .”
Stop by Fiore Volkswagen or schedule a test drive in any of these models to learn more about these safety features!

Volkswagen Launches Moia
This year at the Paris Motor Show, Volkswagen revealed plans for a brand that would be fully dedicated to mobility services. They have now released more details on the company, to be called Moia. The start-up ride-hailing company will begin in Berlin, but VW hopes to rapidly expand by the end of 2017.
Their first order of business is to develop a ride-hailing service, offering rides on demand at prices we can afford (think Uber and Lyft). Next, they’ll focus on what they call “connected commuting,” which will be a carpool service. “In the future, not everyone will have their own car, so we want to help with Moia,” said Matthias Müller, Volkswagen Group CEO, in a statement.
Volkswagen has mentioned that they intend to expand to the United States market, but no word as to when that will happen. Stay tuned right here on the Fiore Volkswagen blog for more details as they develop!
