There are several 4-Motion vehicles available with TDI engines around the world.

The Passat gets the new 2.0 TDI with 140HP(though not with 4_Motion just yet) while the Touareg and Phaeton get the 5.0L V-10 TDI engine.

It's not really clear what VW will do with the 5th Gen Golf/Jetta platform. Surely the 2.0TDI will be available in those models, but whether or not 4-Motion will be available combined with a TDI or even at all on the Golf/Jettas(except in special models like the R32) remains to be seen.
