Knowing many negative rumors surround diesel fuel, Volkswagen USA has launched a series of commercial featuring old ladies who debunk old wives tales. We've already shown you a couple of them in which Tanner Foust is involved, but the latest features an internet celebrity of a totally different kind.
Of course, everybody with an internet affinity knows about Phteven. That's the nickname given to Tuna, a chihuahua-dachsund mix with a prominent overbite and lower jaw problem.
He became famous after his owner launched an Instagram feed in November 2011 and now has his own line of merchandise, including shirts, mugs and phone covers. The dog belongs to Courtney Dasher, who donates part of her proceeds to the ASPCA, as well as the rescuer who originally found Tuna.
Anyway, there's something undeniably funny about this weird pooch, so he's idea for a car commercial with a bunch of old ladies who freely talk about "marinated camel crap". Do dogs really smell like diesel fumes?
The 2015 Volkswagen Jetta TDI Clean Diesel is one of the more expensive models in the range, starting at $21,640 without including the destination charge. The compact sedan may look as boring as a cardboard box, but the 2-liter TDI is a brand new EA288 unit and produces 150 horsepower and noticeably more torque than its petrol equivalents.
While it's down 20 hp on the Jetta 1.8T, fuel economy is far better. On the highway, it's supposed to get up 46 mpg, compared to just 37 for the 1.8. It's almost as efficient as the Jetta Hybrid, but costs $6,000 less. Think of all the dog clothes you could buy with that money.
