The minute you set eyes on the Passat, your heart will beat faster. The exterior
boasts power and charisma, with the wide track width and low-set front end
all producing a striking appearance, giving a hint of the driving pleasure to
come. The gleaming chrome-plated radiator grille surround (01) is a real
design highlight, reinforcing the story. The rounded in-set headlights add an
extra touch of style, with the rear lights using LED technology (04) for clearer,
brighter light. Add to that the confident shape of the C pillar (02) and the
curved breakaway edge of the rear, giving real body definition, and the story
of aerodynamic design and sports performance is complete.
It’s not just aesthetic appeal where the Passat excels, however. Innovative
design is also paramount. Right from initial development, many features
were designed to contribute to safety, such as the V-shaped engine bonnet,
providing integral pedestrian protection. And the greatest attention was given
to the smallest detail, resulting in such special touches as the elegantly shaped
body-coloured door handles and door mirrors with integrated LED indicators
(03) and the minimal gaps between panels. With the galvanised body providing
a 12-year warranty against corrosion, it’s all testimony to Volkswagen’s
legendary build quality and precision approach.

The interior of the Passat has been carefully designed to ensure you feel at home
as soon as you sit behind the wheel. Modern trims and beautiful decor, made from
the finest quality materials (01), interplay perfectly, suffusing the interior (05) with
a feeling of luxury and calm. And it’s not simply a question of aesthetics. Ergonomic
design actually makes driving easier. For a start, all the controls are arranged so that
handling becomes intuitive, take for example, the newly designed leather trimmed
three-spoke multifunction steering wheel allowing controls of the multifunction
computer, audio system and optional telephone preparation (04). The white lit
instrument panel is within your immediate field of vision, giving you all the
information you need while driving – from the speed of the vehicle to the
temperature outside. The electronic parking brake with auto hold function – which
automatically holds the vehicle when you come to a stop on a hill and then releases
as you pull away (02), press and drive ignition (03) and front electric windows (06)
are also positioned for ease of use, and operate literally at the touch of a button.
The same degree of ease and comfort can also be found in the seats of the Passat.
Easily adjustable and fitted with head restraints you’re guaranteed maximum support
whichever seat you choose. In fact, the Highline’s 6-way electrically-adjustable
driver’s seat is surpassed only by the 12-way electrically-adjustable seat on R36
models. Both offer adjustments for lumbar support and seat back angle, enabling
you to sit back and relax, enjoying the most ergonomically beneficial position for
your spine.
Generous interior space is another contributory factor to overall comfort, with the
transversely mounted engine providing more room than ever before for passengers
and luggage, and giving all occupants significantly more legroom. Should you need
to transport bulky objects or luggage, the Passat offers an impressive capacity of 565
litres* (541 litres* on R36 models). In addition, a novel stowage concept provides
extra space in the vehicle interior, enabling you to store maps, sunglasses and CDs
in the doors, front seat centre armrest on Highline and above, overhead console
or centre console.
* Measured in accordance with ISO 3832. VDA measuring method
using 200 x 100 x 50 mm blocks and with rear seat backrest upright.

The Passat S
and BlueMotion 2 Passat.
The RCD 310 radio/MP3 compatible CD player with eight speakers
and AUX-in socket for connection to an external multimedia source
(e.g. iPod and MP3 player) will ensure enjoyment on any journey.
More comfort, more safety and, above all, more driving pleasure. That’s what you can expect from
the Passat S, where a whole host of standard fittings provides everything you would expect – and
more – from an extraordinary car. The front windows and heated door mirrors are electrically
operated, the boot lid opens automatically with remote operation, especially useful when
you’re loading large amounts of shopping, and the press and drive key allows you to start the
engine simply by pushing the key. In addition, the rear seat backrest with its integral centre
armrest splits 60:40 allowing it to be folded down in separate sections, ideal if you’re loading
up bulky items, and the four-spoke steering wheel individually adjusts to your optimum driving
position. And that’s just for starters. Also fitted as standard is an RCD 310 radio/MP3 compatible
CD player with eight speakers and AUX-in socket for connection to an external multimedia source
(e.g. iPod and MP3 player), ‘Climatic’ semi-automatic air conditioning, electronic parking brake
with auto hold function and alarm with interior protection and remote central locking.
Driving the Passat S is an even more enjoyable experience. One reason is certainly the 16 inch
‘Milwaukee’ alloy wheels with 215/55 R16 tyres, guaranteeing dynamic handling and appearance.
Another is the eye-catching interior, with its ‘Dark Rhodium’ inlaid decor and whole array of
practical stowage trays and storage compartments positioned in the doors and overhead console.
To ensure driving is not just pleasurable but also worry-free, the Passat S benefits from many
special safety features, such as electro-mechanical power-assisted steering, WOKS (whiplash-
optimised head restraints) in the front, front airbags with front passenger airbag deactivation,
front seat side impact airbags, curtain airbags, and an Electronic Stabilisation Programme (ESP).
As you can see, Volkswagen have thought of everything – all you have to do is concentrate on
enjoying the drive.
The BlueMotion 2 Passat builds over the already well equipped Passat S and, in addition,
offers impressive environmental credentials by intelligently refining existing technology. Dynamic
lines reduce the vehicle’s air resistance and, combined with engineering refinements, low rolling
resistance tyres and lowered suspension help produce exceptional economy. A Start/Stop function
is also fitted in place of the auto hold function – this automatically stops the engine when the
vehicle is stationary and restarts it when you pull away, saving fuel and reducing emissions.
A combination of all these refinements delivers a package that offers excellent economy up
to 57.6 mpg over the Combined fuel cycle*, and the 2.0 litre TDI 110 PS engine, with DPF (Diesel
Particulate Filter) fitted as standard, ensures CO
2
emissions are from an impressively low 128 g/km.
The BlueMotion 2 Passat adds a higher specification which is evident from its stylish exterior,
with 16 inch ‘Sarena’ alloy wheels with 205/55 R16 low rolling resistance tyres. Internally, for added
convenience, there is also cruise control and a multifunction computer (Highline) which includes
visual gear change recommendations for optimum fuel consumption.

The Passat R Line.
If a sleek, sporty look with a whole host of creature comforts is what you want
from your Passat, then the R Line will exceed your every expectation. While still
comprising all of the specification, luxury and practicality of the Passat S, the R Line
builds an even more impressive look, both inside and out.
Five-spoke 17 inch ‘Monte Carlo’ alloy wheels adorn the exterior, along with body-
coloured front and rear bumpers, and additional side sills which give the car a real
sporting essence. Its distinctive exterior is completed by the front grille surround
and the double louvres finished in elegant matt chrome.
Inside, the R Line is a quiet, comfortable and luxurious interior designed to make
each journey smooth and relaxing. The leather trimmed three-spoke steering wheel
with chrome insert features handy multifunction buttons to control the radio and
optional telephone preparation, so everything you need is available at the touch of
a button. You can even control the ‘Highline’ multifunction computer, which offers
useful information about your journey such as range, fuel consumption and outside
temperature, all without having to take your eyes off the road. Cruise control allows
you to select a constant speed over 19 mph, helping you to relax on longer journeys,
while the seat height and lumbar adjustment on both front seats enable you to find
the optimal position to remain comfortable until you reach your destination. A flat
tyre indicator is also included, which will alert you to any loss in tyre pressure via a
warning symbol displayed in the dashboard, while the front centre armrest with two
rear air vents, cup holders, storage box and a handy 12V socket in the rear adds an
extra touch of comfort.

‘Monte Carlo’ 71⁄2J x 17 alloy wheels with 235/45 R17 tyres
create a sporty yet elegant look to the Passat R Line.

The Passat Highline.
Whether you’re taking a long or short trip, driving the Passat Highline is an absolute joy
because, quite simply, everything has been included to make life as relaxing as possible.
Easily distinguished by its body-coloured front bumper strips, chrome-plated side bump
strips and rear bumper strips, ‘chrome satin’ side window surrounds and 17 inch ‘Macau’
alloy wheels with 235/45 R17 tyres, this exceptional car offers a phenomenal level of
specification. Inside, the electrically-operated 6-way adjustable driver’s seat and manually
adjustable front passenger seat guarantee the best possible seating posture at all times,
while heated front seats and a front centre armrest add an extra touch of luxury. Sumptuous
‘
Vienna’ leather* upholstery is complemented by a leather trimmed gear knob, carpet mats
front and rear, and matt chrome decorative inserts in the dash and centre console with
black or grey upholstery, (or brushed stainless steel decorative inserts when you choose
latte or cornsilk beige leather). To ensure stress-free driving, there’s a newly designed
leather trimmed three-spoke multifunction steering wheel and multifunction computer
(Highline), providing essential information about your journey, and, to help you relax
on longer journeys, cruise control will automatically maintain your desired speed above
19 mph without you having to touch the accelerator pedal.
Interior comfort is further assured by electric rear windows and an RCD 310 radio/MP3
compatible CD player with eight speakers and AUX-in socket for connection to an external
multimedia source (e.g. iPod and MP3 player). With a load-through provision to help you
transport bulky items and even a full size alloy spare wheel, you can be sure virtually no
other car legally offers this level of versatility, comfort and style. Interior shown is Highline with optional RCD 510 touch-screen radio/MP3 compatible 6 CD autochanger.
* Please note that some parts of leather interior will contain artificial leather.
The newly designed leather trimmed three-spoke multifunction
steering wheel allows convenient operation of the radio and
multifunction computer (Highline).
