I drove a 1.8 turbo r line just a few weeks ago I loved it, spacious, responsive, light car, good mileage

Great clip! So true. VW sold 30 million passat's. Their second best selling model after the golf. Maybe the rest of the world knows something south africans have not realised yet? It is a MASSIVELY underrated vehicle. The EU version compares to the A6, and wins. Take one for a test drive and see for yourself.

great intro mate !

You Aussies get the better Passat for sure. I have the Americanized '16 Passat R-Line. Here is a base model with some sporty add-ons and the 1.8T. No manual or 2.0T options. But I like mine. Same problem here also. Not many buy the Passat. That's sad.

it's a shame if you compare this Passat to the US Passat R-line lol. I wish VW'd introduce this to the US market. I'd buy it in a heart beat.

Great video

Keep the analogue clock!

VW Passat ~nice car really very very good

Great car better then my audi a6 2007

It’s a lovely & lively

Is this the South African version? I want to buy a car man but looking for a VW sedan, I can't go with the Arteon, too expensive for me. While this over here mate, been checking it out till beginning of 2018. I need one and this video convinced me, I was never wrong

The only thing that made the "cool kids" cool was their parents money.

Nice review

The U.S. version isn't too bad, but compared to this one it's inferior.

You could add more detail about NVH ride comfort and performance and please floor the car at least once. I've had Passats before and enjoyed them. The emissions scandal has affected brand loyalty and reliability - eg: DSG gearbox has not helped. The 'affordable' model with a 1.4 l 110 kW motor is not exactly tempting.

thanks for the feedback Herbert - noted!

fuel efficiency ???

162kw? Is it lively off the line? More importantly, overtaking performance?

Yesss! It has quite the sporty engine! You won't feel like it is underpowered if you get the 2.0TSI of course 😅

passat or superb?

+Bad Bears, unfortunately the Superb is not available in South Africa so we cannot comment on how the two compare.
