Consumer Reviews
"The ride is awsom. I drove several other new cars and the comfortable ride of the VW Passat is far above all of them in the near price catagory. The road noise is abated to the point of almost non-existant. The TDI diesel mileage is impressive"

"Bought my Passat tdi sel at Tony VW in Waipahu. Sales person (Tommy) was very professional and the made buying experience smooth. Initially, I wanted to get the A6, but since there is only one dealer in Hawaii...they acted as if they were doing me a favor...and reminded me several times of it. Their sales people do not know their product and do jot know how to treat a customer. Anyhow, love the passat tdi sel. A solid car with unbelievable gas mileage. I am getting about 450 to 500 miles per tank mostly city driving. The only let down is that the interior roof liner finish is not clean. Overall...I am glad that I bought the passat instead of the A6.......saved myself 15k."

"I have almost 4000 miles on my 2012 Passat 2.5 SE. I am sorry I got the beige leatherette interior because I have gotten blue jean transfer on the seats that no detail shop has been able to clean off. The car runs great and at 5'11" I have plenty of room behind the wheel. The back seat leg room is larger than my Buick Park Avenue! So far the city gas mileage has been running about 25mpg, and the only road trip netted about 32mpg. Having owned several VW's in the past,I can say the quality has vastly improved."

"So Far I am very Happy with the purchase I do not have many miles on it yet do to bad weather. The car was bought for long distance travel. May have more to add in the future."

"I went from a Mercedes E 350 to the Volkswagen Passat TDI Sel Premium after a lot of research. Saved $30,000 over the Mercedes and got a great car with more bells and whisles. My grown kids like this car much better than the Mercedes - more room and trunk space. My Volkswagen is a diesel - give it a try!!"

"Bought a 2013 Passat Turbo Diesel with manual transmission. Comfortable. Decent handling. Great on the highway and thus far about 44 MPG. Surprising amount of pep, especially once moving. Huge trunk."

"This is my 6 VW in 26 years of driving and by far the most fun one to drive. I chose the 5 speed manual transmission after driving 12 years of automatic Jettas. Smooth shifting and love the pick up the 2013 Passat has. Handles great and the kids LOVE the room in the back seat! I can fit 4 golf bags in the truck and the golfers fit comfortably in the car. Love what you have done with the size of the interior. The interior design is very basic, not flashy, and easy to understand. If you want a great car at a great value, the Passat is a GREAT choice!"

"First time TDI owner and have to say I'm amazed. The car is incredible to drive, great low end torque and solid on the road. MPG is better than rated. Consisting getting 32-33 MPG in heavy city driving and 42-44 in mixed highway and city driving. Straight highway will push or exceed 50MPG..simply amazing. Technology is good, the only thing I really don't care for is the remote start. Remote start will shut off when the doors are unlocked. Then you must restart vehicle. Fender sound system will shatter your glasses with crystal clear music. Navigation system is very easy to operate. Rear seat leg room is excellent. Trunk is huge. The TDI is responsive and off the start and does very well when you need to pass. It is not a sport car but very functional for typical highway driving. Visibility is excellent no real blind spot, side mirrors could be a little larger but are not trouble some. Rearview camera is nice but slow to turn on when the car is first started. Basically the computer takes a few seconds to boot up. I did test drive the new Honda Accord and Camry, both are very nice cars but they simply don't drive like a Passat, the choice was crystal clear after driving all these cars. If you have never drove a German car drive one, but be careful once you drive one you will not want to drive anything else. I do own a 2010 VW Jetta gas and it has been a fantastic car for us. Hope this helps you in your decision. Happy Driving."

"Bought the Passat TDI for it's mileage and reliability. Compared against numerous hybrids and determined the extra cost for diesel was well worth the performance compared to the hybrids (also own a hybrid Ford Escape). Best part is it truly meets EPA estimates (even better with a light foot)!"
