Volkswagen Passat Review: Pros and Cons

By Vikrant Singh01 Aug 2019

Yes, the Volkswagen Passat costs Rs 40 lakhs on the road. And no, it doesn’t command the same snob value as an Audi or a BMW or a Mercedes. Maybe not even as much as a Volvo or a Jaguar.

Living with the Volkswagen Passat

By Omkar Thakur10 Dec 2018

It would be justified to call it a limousine owing to its length and cabin space and we got to live with it for a brief period of time and we have to tell you how was it living with the Passat.

2017 Volkswagen Passat Road Test

By Santosh Nair28 Feb 2018

Admirers and users fondly remember the earlier generations of the Volkswagen Passat. Especially to some of us testers who had the privilege of using it as a long-term in the fleet. We agree it didn’t set the sales charts on fire (thanks to the booming SUV segment), but as a package, there was little to find fault with this sedan. And now, VW is back in the segment by re-introducing the company’s flagship sedan, and what you’re eyeing is the eighth-generation Passat that drove into the Indian market in October 2017. So what’s new? In a nutshell, it has evolved into a more complete product that’s now underpinned by the MQB platform, and is now loaded with more technology and features.
