Tiguan and e-Golf are the two lone bright aspects.. Then again I think those are the only two cars in their US lineup that don't have the diesel option. Oh, I guess the GTI also, as they list it separate for some reason.

 

I'm so curious as to what their fix will be for the diesels and when they will make another proposal.
