In the past March, the Passat sold 19,446 units, ranking second in the B-class car market, if you put aside the luxury brand Mercedes-Benz C-class, the Passat is undoubtedly the best-selling model in the joint venture B-class car market, has been ahead of the old rivals Accord and Camry twice the sales, showing a strong explosive power.
You must know that the Passat on sale now is almost at the end of its product, and it is really rare for it to have such a brilliant result, which is enough to see how high the consumer recognition of this joint venture B-class car is. Of course, behind the continuous best-selling is inseparable from the Passat's own hard-core product strength and good market reputation, as well as the current Passat has a discount of about 30,000 yuan in the market, and the starting price has come to 151,900 yuan, which has been involved in the camp of second-tier B-class cars, which is indeed a very competitive advantage.
Of course, if you feel that the Passat on sale is not attractive enough, you can also wait for a new model. At present, the new generation of Passat has appeared in the latest issue of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's application catalog, and the new car is expected to be officially launched in the third quarter.
The new generation of Passat has changed significantly from the existing Passat, and its product power has also been greatly improved.
First of all, in terms of appearance, the new generation of Passat offers two exteriors, adopting a new family-style design language, and the iconic "banner grille" that runs through the car logo has been designed as an upper and lower split grille, and the area of the upper grille has also been greatly reduced, connecting with the headlights. The R-Line version, on the other hand, has a through-air intake design and adds blackened mesh elements to the interior, giving it a sportier overall look.
At the rear of the car, the previous digital tail mark has been replaced with "PRO", referring to the name of the Tiguan L PRO, and it is not excluded that the new generation of Passat will also adopt the strategy of selling new and old people together.
In addition, the declaration information shows that the size of the new generation of Passat has also changed significantly, with a length, width and height of 5006/1850/1489mm and a wheelbase of 2871mm, which is 58mm longer than the current model, 14mm wider and 20mm taller, and the wheelbase remains unchanged from the current model. This means that the new car will be visually larger than the current model.
The interior refers to the overseas version of the model, and the new car is expected to adopt a new design language, equipped with a 10.25-inch full LCD instrument and equipped with a HUD head-up display, and a 15-inch floating central control screen, which has a stronger sense of technology and is younger.
In terms of power, the Passat on sale offers two versions, 1.4T and 2.0T, but the new generation Passat is likely to cancel the current 1.4T, add a 1.5T version, and retain the 2.0T version, with a maximum power of 118 kilowatts and 162 kilowatts respectively, and the transmission system is expected to be matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission.
Write at the end
There is no doubt that the new generation of Passat is upgraded from the inside out, in the author's opinion, the overall seems to be younger, which makes people feel refreshed, and there is no more information about the configuration part, I believe there will be a lot of improvement, which is worth looking forward to.
The Passat has been in the domestic market for almost 20 years, and it can endure because it can meet consumers' expectations for a mid-level sedan in all aspects, and every update can bring us surprises, so we have reason to believe that the arrival of the new generation of Passat will also be favored by many consumers. I wonder if its old rivals are under pressure.
