Volkswagen has introduced the long-awaited all-new Passat worldwide, which will be launched in Variant version in the first quarter of 2024. And although it is new, it still has the Passat stamp. Or what is the same: the design is clearly Passat, clearly Volkswagen, but new from all points of view. The customer-oriented range of three new plug-in hybrid and mild hybrid powertrains and five variants of turbocharged petrol and diesel engines is characterized by its efficiency. The quiet and spacious Passat Estate offers a high level of travel comfort and will be optionally available with the new adaptive chassis control (DCC Pro) and the new ergoActive seats (with pressure point massage function). The intuitive functions of the digitized dashboard are an absolute novelty. Optionally, the new Passat can also park autonomously and drive long distances in assisted driving mode.

Specifically, the two plug-in hybrid drives Completely newly developed (eHybrid) with a system output of 204 and 272 hp are a perfect example of this. In combination with a new 19.7 kWh (net energy content) battery, they make all-electric ranges of around 100 km possible. This distance makes the new Passat Variant an electric vehicle for everyday use.

In addition, charging times are short, as the battery can now be charged at AC charging points with 11 kW instead of the previous 3.6 kW. The Passat Variant eHybrid can even be charged with up to 50 kW at DC fast charging stations. In addition, the combination of the electric motor and the new and economical turbocharged gasoline engine (1.5 TSI evo) provides a total range of about 1,000 km.
Also new on board the Passat is a 48V light hybrid drive (eTSI with 150PS) that transforms kinetic energy into electrical energy and makes it possible to “go under sail” without using the combustion engine. Two 204 and 265 hp (2.0 TSI) turbo gasoline engines, as well as three 122, 150 and 193 hp turbo diesel engines (2.0 TDI) complete the range of powertrains. The DSG automatic gearbox is always standard. The versions with powers of 195 kW and 142 kW incorporate the 4MOTION all-wheel drive system with intelligent control as standard; all other models are front-wheel drive.

Volkswagen has also completely redesigned the high-quality interior. The large integrated screen, with an elegant, functional and advanced design, is particularly striking. The technical platform is the MIB4 System. The latest generation of the “Modular Infotainment System” enables intuitive operation that has been consistently adapted to the wishes of Volkswagen drivers.

Likewise, the new Passat Estate will be launched with a more developed range of next-generation assistance systems. The range of assisted parking systems is new. These include the optional Park Assist Plus, Park Assist Pro and the memory function for Park Assist Pro. With Park Assist Pro, the new Passat Estate can enter and exit parking spaces remotely using a smartphone.
If the Passat has the memory function for Park Assist Pro on board, the system can record and store the last 50 meters of a journey at the driver’s request. When the vehicle reaches the same position again -for example, the entrance to the garage at home-, it offers to take charge of the parking manoeuvre. Autonomous driving out of a parking space is also possible.
