  • This is the new Volkswagen Passat, which will now only be available as a huge family friendly estate and will only come with combustion engines. This might sound a little old fashioned in our electric SUV-obsessed era, but there's lots to like about VW's new family hauler as Alastair Crooks finds out..

    In Sweden, this car used to be the second queen of roads coming after Volvo 70, the good old days....

    It was based on the Skoda not the other way around, so yeah it will be similar, but the Superb gets some physical knobs for heating.

    Looks so similar to the Golf estate. For the extra cost, you would want more variation.

    Estates > crossovers Always loved passats, and this one looks great. Still not keen on the touch sensative everything though.

    Love my 67 plate tdi saloon GT, not sure I’d opt for this as I prefer a saloon for looks, I guess they know what doing in dropping derv in the uk and the saloon derivative overall but I don’t agree

    Physical buttons on the steering wheel are not great at all and are a backwards step

    More physical controls! Great news. I’m glad they are listening to customers and not designers for a change.
    Passat gets a pass with me because its grandad had a 3.6 V6 😊

    Difficult for the Passat as the Superb is not much different... There never has been but VW sell to VW sheep as always. No problem for VAG, they win either way!
