Auburn Volkswagen: Proud to be Vadis ‘Employer of the Year.’

Posted on by

Auburn Volkswagen has just been named Vadis “Employer of The Year”. It’s a great honor- but what we’re most proud of is Vadis and the wonderful people they provide us who have become part of the Auburn Volkswagen family.

If you’re not familiar with Vadis, please allow us a minute to tell you about them and their wonderful services.

The mission of Vadis is to provide people with disabilities opportunities and experiences to fulfill their economic and human potential. They began providing services to people with disabilities in 1979 and from a small agency serving 25 people in the early years, they’ve developed programs and added staff to now serve approximately 350 people per year. What hasn’t changed is their commitment to the people they serve. Vadis believes people with disabilities should have the opportunity to define what is meaningful, to choose their own life path, to be supported and accepted in doing so, and to belong. And so do we.

It’s a joy to work with this fantastic organization and the people they provide.

Vadis can help your business too. They’re dedicated to helping you recruit and retain employees with disabilities. For more information regarding our services, please contact them at http://www.vadis.org/

Volkswagen Passat Wins 2012 Motor Trend Car Of The Year!

Posted on by

The 2012 Volkswagen Passat was named the 2012 Motor Trend Car of the Year this week. This latest generation of the Passat has only been on sale in the United States for a few months. “The 2012 Passat came out on top because it fulfills six specific criteria: advancement in design, engineering excellence, efficiency, safety, value and performance of intended function,” writes Autoblog. “Motor Trend specifically cited the vehicle’s roomy interior and wide range of powertrain options as reasons that it won the top nod.”

The redesigned Passat, which is built in Chattanooga, Tenn., offers two gasoline engines and the segment’s only diesel engine, which is capable of achieving up to an EPA-estimated 31/43 mpg city/highway with a manual transmission, and 30/40 mpg with an automatic. The 2012 Volkswagen Passat starts at $19,995, while the diesel-powered TDI starts at $25,995.
