    Every picture I look at I see a "Hybrid" emblem on the front grill, for some reason my 2012 doesn't have one. Am I missing one or the 2012's didn't get them?

    "That's not smog. That's smug."

    If you don't know the reference then I guess you don't know what I'm trying to say here.

    Goes along with VW's "low ego emissions" for not rubbing your "eco-friendly" stance in everyone's face. Unless that is of course you're "just doing my part."

    No, the TDI just has a blue I to let you know it is a clean diesel.

    It's supposed to have it that's weird

    im sure it just clips in

    go to the dealer and ask for them to order it

    every brochure has one

    and every one for sale has one

    they also have badging on the rear doors trunk and on the wood by the shifter in case you forgot

    Exactly what I did. I also called VWoA and they agreed to pay for it via gift certificate. The only problem is the bracket is not available anywhere and needed to be ordered from Germany, 3-4 weeks wait time.

    Out of curiosity what did it cost? And what was their excuse for not putting it on the 60k$ car?

    Bracket and lettering with 20% discount was around $70.00. I bought this car from a dealer 250 miles away and did not notice that the emblem was missing until next day. Must've been ripped off by some vandals while on the lot. The selling dealer did offer to pay for it but VWoA beat them to it, lol.

    Do you own a hybrid?

    I'll trade my Hybrid for your age any day, lol. Beetle turbo is not a bad start either!
