2020 VW Passat

Jul 20, 2019

Eight years after the last redesign debuted, the 2020 Volkswagen Passat has been announced and it is one of the most looked-forward-to cars of the year, mostly due to brand new features:

Comfort for your whole crew.

Designed with all passengers in mind, not just the driver. You’ll notice multipurpose details all over the place. Once you’re done sinking in and admiring the view, of course.

V-Tex leatherette seating surfaces

It looks like leather, but it’s really V-Tex leatherette. This available seating surface is comfortable, stylish, and easy to maintain.

Climatronic® dual-zone climate control

Some like it cool. Others like it hot. With available dual-zone climate control, you can make everyone happy.

Rear legroom

Providing more than three feet of rear legroom, friends of all sizes can stretch out and enjoy. Pretty soon, every turn will be your turn to drive.

Two rear USB charging ports

Because your friends want their devices too. The Passat is equipped with two available rear USB ports so everyone can get a charge out of the ride.

Rear air vents

Allow friends in the backseat to redirect their own airflow. Extra touches that make for an extra-memorable (and comfortable) ride.

Heated front seats

Now you can stay warm on chilly evenings, with available heated front seats for you and your plus-one.

R-Line design

The available Passat R-Line steps up the bold and sporty attitude for even the most sophisticated drivers. With a sporty front end and rear bumper, 19″ wheels, and performance design cues, you may notice an increase in double takes.

LED projector headlights with LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL)

LED projector headlights with LED Daytime Running Lights help illuminate your drive as well as highlight your sense of style.

LED taillights

Sure, they look great, but that’s only part of the story. They’re also efficient and long-lasting.

Rain-sensing wipers

Are you sensing inclement weather? So can your Passat. When rain hits the windshield, available rain-sensing wipers even know whether to swish faster or slower.

Auto-dimming rearview mirror

Help lessen the glaring lights from those traveling behind you. The available self-dimming rearview mirror can handle that garish light by dimming when things get too bright.

19″ alloy wheels

Standard on your Passat R-line, these broad 19″ wheels come in an eye-catching two-tone of machined alloy with a unique split-spoke design.

Sunroof

Nothing like an available power sunroof that tilts and slides to shine a little natural light on your drive.

Take your apps for a ride.

To start App-Connect simply plug in your compatible smartphone and watch as your select apps appear on the touchscreen display of your Volkswagen.

The perfect partner for your hi-tech life.

From touchscreen to push-button, it’s all about sitting, setting up select apps, and seeing where the day takes you. The Passat is full of the very technology you need for your very full life.

6.3″ touchscreen sound system

This feature lets you experience your music through more than one of the senses. With voice control and an intuitive proximity sensor behind a clear glass display, you’ll see, feel, and hear the difference.

Keyless access with push-button start

Available keyless access lets you lock, unlock, start, and drive your car without ever having to take your keys out of your pocket. Press the brake and push the start button, and your engine’s running and ready for action.

Premium color Multifunction Display (MFD)

Its graphic and colorful interface shows your media, compatible phone, and vehicle info and settings in plain sight.

Blind Spot Monitor

When driving, if you attempt to change lanes, the Blind Spot Monitor can help alert you to cars that may be in your blind spot. The Active Blind Spot Monitor (available when the vehicle is equipped with Lane Assist) on select models can also counter-steer within the limits of Lane Assist to help keep you in your lane if you attempt to change lanes when a vehicle is in your blind spot.

Remote start

On cold days, warm up the Passat while you stay inside sipping your coffee. Or, on hot ones, cool it down before you get in. Just use the available remote start feature.

SiriusXM® All Access

Get your fingers warmed up. SiriusXM All Access offers music, plus major sporting events and some of the biggest names in entertainment, news, and comedy are available with a 3-month trial subscription.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

Available Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) helps the vehicle maintain a preset speed and distance from the car in front of you. When activated, if the car in front of you speeds up or slows down, the sensors can detect the change and your car follows suit.

Turbocharged engine

As part of the turbo technology in the new Passat, cooled air is forced directly into the TSI® engine, helping to give you impressive performance, horsepower, and torque.

Leather-wrapped, multi-function steering wheel with paddle shifters

Get a grip. With comfort and technology right at your fingertips, you won’t want to let go. Available track-inspired paddle shifters also give you quick-shifting capability at your fingertips, so you don’t have to.

6-speed automatic transmission with Sport Mode

The automatic 6-speed transmission cruises you from 0 to 60 and back down so smoothly you’ll feel like a pro. And if that isn’t sporty enough for you, switch into Sport mode for a more active feel advancing through the gears.

Safety Cage

Front and rear crumple zones help absorb crash energy, while a rigid safety cage helps deflect it away from the driver and passengers.

Intelligent Crash Response System (ICRS)

In the event of a collision that deploys the airbags, the ICRS can turn off the fuel pump, unlock the doors, and activate the hazard lights. It helps react if you might not be able to.

Rear View Camera System

Benefit from the view of a wide lens when you want it. It can help you see obstacles when backing up, a feature so helpful you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it.

Automatic Post-Collision Braking System

Not every collision brings a car to stop. That’s why our vehicles include the Automatic Post-Collision Braking System. It can also help slow the vehicle down after a collision, helping reduce the chance of any additional impacts.

Top Reasons to Buy a Volkswagen

Jun 17, 2019

With over 30 automotive brands that exist in the world today, it’s kind of hard to choose the best one. However, due to the quality, design, reliability, and safety of its vehicles, it is evident that Volkswagen is one of the top brands in the automotive industry today. Here are the top reasons you should buy a Volkswagen vehicle today:

High Quality

When it comes to good and high-quality vehicles, Volkswagen is the manufacturer everyone thinks about. Starting with the classic Beetle all the way through the Golf and Passat, Volkswagen has sold millions of high-quality cars worldwide, which has no doubt aided it in becoming one of the top car manufacturers in the entire world.

Durability

Generally, when buying a new car, we expect it to last a few years. This simply isn’t true when it comes to Volkswagen. With the proper care and regular check-ups, Volkswagen vehicles can last a lifetime.

Efficiency

While the average mpg for the majority of cars in the US is 24.7, Volkswagen vehicles average out at 26-30 in the city and it can go up to 40 on the highway. The Jetta, one of Volkswagen’s most popular models, averages 33 MPG combined city and highway. The Golf Alltrack averages 26 MPG combined, the Golf’s mean MPG is 29 combined, and the Beetle checks in with a 29 MPG combined rating.
