2017 Volkswagen Passat consumer reviews

Extremely roomy and comfortable. Faster than 170hp would suggest, and easily 37mpg onroad trips. Advanced driver aids work extremely well. Great value for the money!

I love it but only think I don?t like is that the head light are not LED. It?s a not as bright as it should be at night and can?t use high beam all the time!!

I bought a 2018 Passat SEL Premium with a V6 engine and I love it! The quality of the interior is great and it's nice and quiet. The throttle response is a tiny bit slower than I'd like, and the navigation system is pretty archaic. Nevertheless, it supports Android Auto and Apply Carplay, so you can use the nav on your phone instead.

After having numerous SUVs. However, we were in the market for a new (to us) commuter vehicle. My brother in law had just purchased a 2015 Passat. His three long legged boys fit comfortably into their Passat. It?s his commute vehicle, but it?s sexy enough that his wife calls it their date night car. I have a cousin with a 2016 Passat that echoed his praises. Their recommendations sold us and we went with the 2017 Passat in the R-Line trim. We?re a family of five with children in a rear facing car seat, a high backed booster, and a backless booster. Their seats fit comfortably in our Passat. We all have ample leg room- even more than we had in our SUVs. The trunk size astonished us. My husband, our 7 year old, 5 year old, and 2 year old all hopped into it for a photo op. This is such a fun vehicle to drive. It has paddles to shift on the steering wheel. You can take tight curves with no effort and won?t feel your speed. It?s a sharp, sporty vehicle (look at those 19 inch wheels!) with the space to accommodate a family. The value is fantastic, too. The R-Line trim comes equipped with a rear view camera, blind spot sensors, brake assist, Car-Net App Connect, leather seats, et cetera. It?s everything we wanted in a vehicle. Aside from being efficient and affordable, it has style, fun, and creature comforts- and I never thought I would find that in a sedan. My mother in law is in the market for a new vehicle, and the Volkswagen Passat is by and far our recommendation.

It is so fun to drive. I am happy with it and with the dealership at the Lavista, Omaha location. I was with my daughter and her husband when they purchased theirs and was impressed. This made my mind up to buy a VW when I moved to Omaha.

I have driven 3 VW Passats since 1998, this SEL Premium is excellent. It is a replacement for a 2015 S we owned for 10 1/2 months. Both vehicles very comfortable and the TSI engine gets excellent fuel mileage.

I recently upgraded from a 2015 VW Jetta to a 2017 VW Passat and I could not be happier! The Passat is a larger vehicle which is what I was looking for as a big guy. There's plenty of leg room and it's more fuel efficient. Highly recommend!

It was the first car I ever bought with my own money and it has really been a bang for my buck great gas mileage very reliable

This car has been awesome. I have a family of four which includes 2 car seats and we always have more than enough room. The size and overall style of the car is perfect. This is my second Passat and I will definitely be sticking with the VW family for a while.

Seats are some of the most comfortable I've ever had. 1.8 turbo provides plenty of power when summoned. Screen could be larger, but interior design is clean and refreshing. Car is very quiet, even at 85 mph.
