Wading into waters infested by the Mercedes CLS, the Porsche Panamera and the upcoming BMW CS, the ‘people’s manufacturer’ has introduced this – the Passat CC Coupe.
A four-door coupe, the new VW Passat CC Coupe is longer and wider than the standard Passat, but is 50mm lower, giving it a sleek, rakish appearance. There’s also a panoramic skylight.
Engines available on launch include the range-topping 3.6-litre FSI producing 296bhp, launching the sexy VW from 0-62mph in 5.6 seconds and on to an electronically limited 155mph top speed.
