The nicest improvement in the 2010 Passat is the addition of the DSG transmission, which assists the 2.0TSI four-cylinder engine. The Wagon version doesn’t get it since it is powered by a V6 engine and all-wheel drive system. And for a year now, a third model enhances the series: the four-door CC coupe. The three come standard with rear airbags, the suspension is sportier for the Highline variant, and more communications tools are included in the Comfortline variant.

2018 Volkswagen Passat: Straight Arrow

Could there be a more cutthroat segment in the industry than the midsize sedan one?

If the product isn’t stellar, it stands no …February 9, 2018

Although the Wolfsburg-based manufacturer had a great deal of success in North America in the fifties and sixties, its popularity declined continually thereafter.
