Recently, according to foreign media reports, the last Volkswagen Passat (Chinese Passat, corresponding to the domestic Magotan) in the United States, Tennessee Chattanooga factory off the production line, which means that volkswagen Passat officially ended in the US market and became history.
According to the information, the Chattanooga plant in Tennessee, the United States, has produced a total of 800,000 Volkswagen Passats, and after the discontinuation of the model, Volkswagen's Chattanooga in Tennessee is expected to start producing ID.4 pure electric vehicles later this year.
However, the plant will not completely abandon the production of fuel vehicles, and the Volkswagen Atlas (corresponding to the domestic Tuon) SUV and the coupe version of the model will still be from the plant.
Earlier this month, it was reported that Volkswagen had confirmed the discontinuation of the Passat sedan version overseas, due to Volkswagen's model streamlining plan, and there was also a strong correlation with the global market consumers' preference for SUVs and station wagons, as well as the trend of electrification transformation.
After the discontinuation of the sedan version of Passat, the Passat travel version, Arteon and Arteon hunting version will fill the gap in the market, and in China, these three models correspond to Weilan, CC and CC hunting vehicles.
It is worth noting that the pure electric version of the "Aero B" test spy photos have been exposed, and it is expected to be officially unveiled and listed within this year.
Of course, given that domestic Passat and Magotan sales are still hot, in the short term, the public is reluctant to cut down their production lines, and domestic consumers do not need to worry too much.
