$14,850

The 2018 Volkswagen Passat range of configurations is currently priced from $8,999.

Our most recent review of the 2018 Volkswagen Passat resulted in a score of 7.6 out of 10 for that particular example.

Carsguide Senior Journalist Laura Berry had this to say at the time: The Passat 132TSI Comfortline wagon is a well-equipped, super practical, good looking, and easy to drive alternative to an SUV. I’d option the Luxury Package for the LED headlights if you’re doing lots of country kays, plus it brings you auto parking – making life with it even easier. Jeans or cargo shorts? The choice is yours.
