The all-new Volkswagen Passat, a car that pushes the boundaries of a mid-size sedan, made its Middle East debut at an intimate event in Dubai. Built to cater to a wide range of customers, the Volkswagen Passat 2020 is available in three different variants. Retaining everything that made its predecessors special, the all-new Passat offers more of what matters to the modern customer: a bold design, upgraded technology and enhanced access to driver-assistance features.

Victor Dalmau, Managing Director for Volkswagen Middle East said: “The sedan market plays an important role in this region. Last year, the previous Passat model made up nearly 20% of Volkswagen Middle East’s total sales, highlighting the importance of sedans and that the Passat is a popular choice for customers and businesses alike. So, we are delighted to welcome a new and upgraded Passat – one of Volkswagen’s key iconic vehicles to the region.”
While the 2020 Passat retains the underpinnings of the previous model, it has been completely restyled. A dynamic coupe-like roofline and dominant grille give the Passat a bold new look that combines elegance and sportiness into a neatly bundled package. Standard slim LED headlights and taillights, along with Passat badging that runs the width of the boot, lend the sedan a premium appeal.

Inside, the Passat combines a new design and upgraded technology with the spacious cabin that made the outgoing model popular. The cockpit features a horizontal design, incorporating air vents that flow across the dash in a style reminiscent of more premium models. Every Passat also comes standard with Volkswagen Car-Net App-Connect technology, which integrates compatible smartphones with three major platforms: Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and MirrorLink.
The 2020 Passat is available in three variants (Trendline, Comfortline, Highline) with prices starting at AED 95,374 inclusive of VAT dependent on dealer.
