Okay, so the new, seventh-generation VW Passat has maintained the same platform as the 2006 car, but Volkswagen, that each panel is new.
But it is possible to look almost exactly the same as the Passat replace! Maybe that’s a little unfair. The top cars certainly look forward premium, very nice indeed, although I bet will be a 1.4 on tires not quite as appealing. What exactly is new?

A lot of technology, that’s what. Some of this is material that we previously in other VWs (self-parking, XDS differential, adaptive dampers, start-stop) and others, have not we, as a drowsiness monitor’ve seen that recognizes when your entries are always ragged, a solid sign that you are about to fall off. to get all three diesel options (both 1.6 and 2.0s) and the basic 1.4 petrol engine with fuel-saving start-stop technology.

The old VW Passat was actually pretty good ride. How does stack the facelift in 2011 Passat?

Very good. We drove the top 168bhp diesel together, a double-clutch transmission “box and it was just perfect: smooth and gutsy, though the DSG tranny hobbles the fuel consumption of 8mpg As the step of Mk5 Mk6 Golf, it is not radically different. but considerably more refined.

The optional adaptive dampers mean from the Golf and Scirocco out that you slide on the highway without it all falling apart on the twisty bits. It’s not like the Mondeo focused, but it handles neatly with precise steering and good body control and the difference is very subtle XDS keeps the diesel’s £ 260 m in check.
Where the 2011 Passat is extra configuration from?

There are more Scottish sound insulation, thicker side glass window (with the option of double glazing) and the windshield has a thin layer of plastic between two sheets of glass to keep out unwanted noise. But there is also a jump in refinement in terms of perceived quality cabin that is now miles better than Insignia, although cabin is completely outweighed by the Mondeo.

And what about the sexy Passat CC, the coupe is really just a beautiful limousine?

This will be reviewed late in 2011 with the same technical improvements, but do not expect such a clear visual change such as this.
VW Passat review 2011: the verdict

If you value fun over everything, you would still choose Mondeo, although the Passat is closer now than it was. If you are concerned about cabin and cargo space, would be to buy the Ford. So, where’s the trade? There are many more reasons to buy it: the cabin is so inviting, winner of the powertrain and refinement, and because the trade continues, the VW as a cut above his Ford-Vauxhall opposition, residuals are strong. Certainly not as boring as you think. Today’s Carzpage Review: VW Passat 2.0 TDI 170 Sport 2010.
