Photos: Volkswagen Passat CC

By Staff writers on 14 January 2008

The current Passat four-door sedan isn't exactly the most exciting car around, so VW have introduced a new faster looking variant.

In addition there's also a host of electronics usually reserved for luxury cars. Most of our excitement for this new model is due to the all-new navigation and entertainment system, which looks to be a big improvement on Volkswagen's current offering.

Engine choices
For Europe, the Passat CC will be offered with diesel and petrol engines, and we can reasonably expect the same here albeit, probably, with less choice. Engines available overseas are a 2-litre turbocharged four cylinder putting out 147bhp or a 3.6-litre V6 making 205kW. There's also a 118kW 1.8-litre engine which can be paired with a seven speed version of Volkswagen's DSG.

    Well VW needs more improvement, such as most of VW doesn't come with Navigation system,Bluetooth,PM3 Aux input and key pad to open the door without unlock,should be able to start the car with remote. I have been VW families for pass 10 yrs, because I lease from VW every 2 years, I'm going to change to Audi,because Audi build car with more futures to attracte the customer than VW. I'm driving 2008 Passat Komfort, I'm going to trade it for Audi V6.I can be rich at kar8511@yahoo.com
