The motor show in Paris will open only in half a year, however, already now clearly, what cars there will be shown. And the most important premiere of Paris should become new Volkswagen Passat – Germans already have almost finished creation of this model, and its sales can begin this autumn!
Volkswagen Passat following generation will keep the general proportions of a body, however, car "muzzle" will receive absolutely new design. It will be made approximately in the same style, as at last generation Polo or Touareg.
Surprises and under a cowl expect us. So, the unit in volume 1,2 l becomes the base engine for Passat. It will give out 105 h.p. Someone, of course, will tell that 1,2 l for Passat are ridiculous. But do not forget that now Passat has the motor capacity only 102 h.p. (the atmospheric unit in volume 1,6). Thus the engine in volume of 1,2 l not only is more powerful on 3 h.p., it still possesses also the best twisting moment – 175 Nm against 148 Nm at the unit in volume of 1,6 l.
