2020 VW Passat - Key highlights
Some of the finest and most elegant cars are made by Volkswagen. It has it in its genes. We are not saying that VW doesn’t make sporty-looking cars, it makes elegant-looking cars better. Don’t you think so? One such great example is the 2020 VW Passat. It has all the features to make you fall for its elegance. And in this story, we will try to help you experience this elegance closely by pointing out the Passat’s key highlights.
Full-LED lighting
The lighting system of a car is also a part of its overall personality. That’s why VW has worked tirelessly to develop a full-LED lighting system for the Passat. At the front, we have a pair of VW’s beautiful IQ Light Matrix LED headlights with LED DRLs. This headlight system also incorporates dynamic headlight range control, dynamic cornering light, and dynamic indicators. The rear of the Passat gets a striking pair of LED taillights which includes dynamic indicators and signature lighting. The entire lighting system works to add to the Passat’s elegant character.
Elegant design
2020 VW Passat price is RM 189,012 and you will find it worth every penny as soon as you lay eyes on it. It is such an elegant-looking car. Its front has VW’s signature horizontal grille with the brand’s logo in the middle. Its side profile is elongated thanks to the sloping roofline. The strong and bold character lines on the doors represent the car’s personality as well. And then we have the striking alloy wheels.
Luxurious, comfortable, and spacious interior
And the elegance isn’t just on the outside of the car, the cabin carries it, too. The dashboard is very well laid out with no-nonsense features. It looks neat and tidy. The streamlines from the front grille are presented along the length of the dashboard. The centre console is wide and controls on it are ergonomically placed. The leather seats offer great comfort for all the occupants. VW has also added ambient lighting for that extra premium-ness. You can play around with it and choose from 30 colours depending on your mood. Also, the three-zone climate works wonders.
Superb connectivity
We are very impressed with the Passat’s superb connectivity features. Whether you want to make a call while driving, require current traffic info, access navigation, or play your favourite music, Passat has got you covered. Its ‘Discover Pro’ system can combine navigation and connectivity with in-car-entertainment. Everything can be controlled via a large 9.2-in touchscreen colour display. For smartphone integration, there is Apple CarPlay. VW has also added voice control.
Turbocharged engine
2020 VW Passat specs have only a single engine option available - a 2.0-litre TSI turbocharged engine that produces 188 bhp of max power and 320 Nm of healthy torque which is available from as low as 1,500 rpm. The power delivery is smooth yet punchy whereas the low-end torque helps in a better pickup and excellent mid-range performance. Mated to this engine is VW’s DSG (direct shift gearbox) which ensures a smooth, hassle-free, and relaxed drive. It has been tuned to provide an optimal balance of performance and mileage. Talking about mileage, VW claims that the Passat is capable of returning 6.5litres per 100 km.
Safety features
VW has also invested in the safety features of the Passat. It comes with a handful of safety aids like-
- Side Assist
- Proactive Passenger Protection System
- Driver Alert
- 6 airbags
- Electronic Stability Control
- ABS with EBD
- Reverse camera with guidelines
- Manoeuvre braking and much more
These were some of the key highlights of the 2020 VW Passat. Available in six colour options - Aquamarine Blue, Deep Black, Oryx White, Manganese Grey, Reflex Silver, and Tamarind Brown - the Passat has only a single variant for sale in Malaysia, that is the 2.0 TSI Elegance.
