The 2022 VW Passat has finally been released. Even though this will be the final version of the Passat in the United States, it offers plenty of great features only found in VW. Those of you whom love sedans and are reluctant to get into an SUV, the Passat is perfect for you!
To start, the 2022 VW Passat has a 2.0L TSI 4 Cylinder Engine producing 174 HP and 206 FTLBS of Torque. That means speeding up with traffic on the highway is a synch. It also comes with decent fuel economy averaging around 28 miles per gallon. 28 mpg is less than many of the competitors, but the nimbleness and power make it a joy to drive.
When it comes to space, the 2022 VW Passat is incredible! The second-row leg room is 39.1 cubic feet which means your six-foot-three brother-in-law will be happy as a clam in the back seat. Additionally, the trunk space is excellent as well, coming in at 15.9 cuft. Did I mention the seats are designed with V TEX Leatherette? That means not only are the seats comfortable, but they require significantly less maintenance and care than regular leather seats.
Other showstoppers on the 2022 Passat are the comfort features. The Rain Sensing Wipers will activate automatically when moisture is detected on the windshield. The CLIMATRONIC Dual Zone Climate Control allows for you and your passenger to enjoy a customized level of comfort. And the Fender Premium Audio System serenades your mind into the perfect driving mood.
Speaking of which, the new Passat comes equipped with VW’s car connection app Car Net which gives you access to your Passat from anywhere in the world. With Car Net you have access to Service information like oil life or mileage as well as being able to schedule oil changes or other maintenance appointments. On top of that, you have access to Family Guardian Alerts which notifies you of Speed, Boundary or Curfew restrictions you’ve placed on the vehicle while being driven by someone else.
If you are concerned about safety, the Passat comes with a plethora of Active Safety Features. Blind Spot Monitor provides you indicators of vehicles travelling in your blind spot. Front Assist both alerts and depresses the brake in the event a frontal collision is imminent. Adaptive Cruise Control allows you to set your speed and forget it. The Passat will accelerate or decelerate based on traffic. And Light Assist which both drops your High Beams when approaching oncoming traffic and Dynamically rotates the headlights in the direction of the steering wheel.
Another sweet feature you will not find anywhere else, is the fantastic VW warranty. With your purchase of a 2022 VW Passat you receive a 4 year or 50,000 mile Bumper To Bumper Warranty. Sure there are other, longer warranties out there, but not like this. Still not convinced? What about the 2 years of Free Maintenance that is also included? That’s right. Only Volkswagen offers a maintenance package included in your purchase.
There are so many reasons to be interested in the 2022 VW Passat, so it is sad to watch its disappearance from the US market. From the turbocharged engine to the comfortable spacious back seats, the Passat is a stand-out in the sedan world.
