Volkswagen Passat


VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT

Exterior Good looks, curve light a nice thing to have, strong body.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) An average music system, better comfort in the front seats, Auto hold funtion a wonderful tool to have in stop & go traffic, wood finish Front panels.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Brilliant gera box/shifts, Great to drive in 'S' mode and engine noise sounds great on S mode.

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent grip on the road, touched 200 Kmph on Salem -Kovai NH road, good response.

Final Words As the name says 'volkswagen' a real car for common man with the comfort of the luxury brands, Value for money (under 25-30 Lacs), Good milege even for the city drives( 12 kmpl).

Areas of improvement The Air conditioning system certainly requires improvement. Needs frequent cleaning up of A/c filters, rear window sun bilnd are flimsy(better design in a Merc E class), Grond clearence a problem in a city like B'lore where there are monstrous speedbreakers.
