2011 VolkWagon Passat ( 1.8 TSI ) Executive / family Sedan Review

This is a brand new model compare to the predecessor Passat CC. Again the design or the shape of the car has return to more basic or common but with so much more to offer.
They have taken out the shadow of the CC concept but it still keep or maintain  the sleek & the elegance sytle of the Passat's benchmark.
I'm delighted with the all the new features such as the new LED head light & tail light, chrome panel for the front grille , slim chrome lines at the lower of the front & rear bumper & same goes to all the door's lower part , even the new dual fog light also cover with chrome panel & the push in to start key system.
Cabin space are excellent , great head & legs room , high quality  leather seat and it just so comfortable.
Is a good & ideal companion either for everyday or long distance road trips.

Performance :
No question / doubt about the amount of torque or shear power in this 1.8T powerplant comes with 7 speed DSG technology and whenever you open the tap and go flat out...Woo ...whoo.. is really powerfull  than you could imagine.
I really adore the VW engineering & philosophy where VW's products is always put people / consumer in the first place in term of benefit , product quality & pricing.
Which means all the product range ( all VW models ) is truely value for money and that is what VW is all about ."People's Car". Right ?
It comes with 6 air bags as well , exactly like in the Jetta.
