note: This version of the Passat will only be sold in the US (imho: thank God)
After years of waiting to see what Volkswagen would call their new U.S. built mid-size sedan we finally have an answer - Passat. This means there will be a European-market specific Passat and a North American-market specific Passat. Ours will be bigger and sold at a lower price point to compete with the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry and other mid-size offerings while Germany (and the rest of Europe) will continue on with the new facelifted Passat that was introduced this past September at the Paris Auto Show...
