Engine Performance

Safety
The new Passat achieved a EuroNCAP safety rating of 5 and comes equipped with ESP including brake assist system, 'Rest Assist' driver fatigue detection system, safety optimised front head restraints and ISOFIX mounting points on outer two rear seats for child seats. A comprehensive airbag network including driver and passenger airbags, curtain airbag system for front and rear passengers and side airbags in front seats comes as standard across all models.

Drive train
DCC adaptive chassis control is available as an option across all models and offers three different programs: “Sport”, “Normal” and “Comfort”. For example, the “Sport” mode features relatively stiff dampers to match the changed steering characteristics. The result is a driving experience on a par with that of an agile sports car. However, the DCC adaptive suspension control system can do much more: It provides the optimum settings for every individual driving situation and type of road.
