2017 Volkswagen Passat Review - Volkswagen’s recent emissions scandal has removed the efficient TDI diesel engine from the lineup, which used to be one of the more compelling reasons to consider a Passat. The two gasoline engines left on the order sheet are a turbocharged 1.8 liter four cylinder with 170 horsepower and a 3.6 liter V 6 engine with a potent 280 horsepower, both pairing with standard six speed automatic transmissions, although the V 6 gets one of the dual clutch variety. A sportier looking R Line trim level is as far as the Passat goes with sports sedan aspirations, instead emphasizing comfort and conservative styling inside and out. If style is a higher priority for you, the rakish Volkswagen CC might be more your speed, although its starting price of $35,340 is significantly higher than the Passat’s $23,260 base figure.
