FOLLOWING field tests in Germany, Austria and Belgium, the electric-powered Golf Blue-e-Motion is about to be tested in France.

Volkswagen is providing public authorities, major customers and private individuals in Paris and surrounding areas with a total of 15 vehicles, which can be conveniently charged via the charging boxes supplied.

The capital region is a particularly interesting choice for the elaborate tests as drivers here have to cope with long commutes and very heavy traffic.
