VW CHANGES MODEL NAMES TO MATCH AUTOCORRECT SPELLINGS

Volkswagen is finally giving in.  After years of having the names of its cars modified by autocorrect software, the automaker has decided to permanently change the names of many of its vehicles.  

"We give our cars unique names. But owners tell us they're tired of the automatic spelling corrections every time they type the name of their car. So, we're changing the model names to be consistent with autocorrect," said Uwe Uwe Ichmussjetztgehen, Volkswagen's Geschäftsführer of Automotive Etymology.   

Not all VW models will change. For example, autocorrect considers Beetle to be spelled correctly, so that car will keep its name.  Here is a list of the old model names followed by the new ones: 




GTI..........................FYI

e-Golf......................e-ggnog

Jetta........................Jetsam

Passat.....................Passable

CC...........................CCTV

Tiguan.....................Tijuana

Toureg.....................Tourniquet

Eos..........................Ed's
