Introduction
The all-new Volkswagen Passat has made its debut in the Middle East at a special event in Dubai, elevating the standards of mid-size sedans. Available in three different trims, the 2020 Passat is designed to meet the diverse needs of a wide range of customers. With all the features that made its predecessors stand out, the new Passat offers modern drivers even more: a bold design, advanced technology, and improved access to driver assistance features.
Executive Statements
Victor Dalmau, CEO of Volkswagen Middle East, stated: "The sedan market plays a significant role in this region. Last year, the previous Passat model accounted for nearly 20% of Volkswagen's total sales in the Middle East, highlighting the importance of sedans and that the Passat is a popular choice for both customers and companies. Therefore, we are excited to welcome the new updated Passat, one of Volkswagen's iconic vehicles in the region."
Exterior Design
The 2020 Passat retains the foundational elements of the previous model but comes with a complete redesign. The dynamic coupe-like roofline and the prominent front grille give the Passat a bold new look that combines elegance with a sporty flair. The standard LED headlights and slim LED taillights, along with the Passat badge embossed along the rear trunk, contribute to the sedan's distinctive appearance.
Interior Technology
Inside, the Passat blends new design elements with advanced technology, featuring the spacious cabin that made its predecessor popular. The dashboard showcases a horizontal design that enhances the flow of the interior, complemented by air vents that contribute to a streamlined aesthetic. Additionally, every Passat comes standard with Volkswagen's App-Connect technology, allowing seamless integration of compatible smartphones with three main platforms: Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and MirrorLink.
