VW Passat

The two sides of the Passat steering wheel have perforated leather, which is of moderate thickness and feels good to hold. The multi-function buttons also have a certain sense of touch. It's a pity that there is no mute button. When controlling multimedia, you can only press the volume down continuously to mute.

Passat Pro adopts the family's latest rotary electronic hand-type shift design, which frees up more storage space in the central channel. However, the rotary operation still takes some time for new drivers to get familiar with it.

The top-end and mid-range models of VW Passat are increasingly divided, and the price difference is also increasing. The instrument screen of the lowest-end model is 8 inches, the mid-range model is 10.2 inches, and the top-end model is 10.3 inches. Of course, for those who don't care about these and pursue practicality, the mid-range model is enough.

The size of the central control screen of the 2025 VW Passat is basically determined by the configuration. There are more types than the instrument screen, with a total of 8/9.2/12.9/15 inches, 4 sizes. This may be one of the most obvious points of price difference.

The passenger driver entertainment screen is better than nothing. Although it provides many apps for installation and download, the 11.6-inch screen is obviously not enough at present. In terms of actual use experience, there is a certain gap with many Chinese brand models on the market. And only the top-end models have it.

The storage compartment of Passat is very practical. The storage compartment below the center console has a non-slip mat and wireless charging function. The large opening makes it convenient to take and put mobile phones. The front door panel storage compartment is also relatively large, but the front and rear door panel handles have no storage capacity.

The Passat seats have a lot of advantages. Not only are the fillings soft and comfortable, but they also have a full range of functions, including seat massage, seat memory, and seat ventilation and heating. This 330TSI Premium Edition has all of them, and the seat massage effect is also good.

The rear seats are also quite comfortable, especially the headrests are moderately soft and provide good support. The rear seat armrests are also of suitable height and angle, so you won't feel uncomfortable.

In addition to comfortable seats, the rear configuration is also very complete, with independent zoned air conditioning, seat heating, power interface, panoramic sunroof, manual side sunshades and electric rear sunshades, which are very useful functions when taking children out later.

The official trunk volume of the Passat Pro reaches 521L. In actual experience, the storage capacity is also quite impressive. Three suitcases of 28 inches, 24 inches and 20 inches can be easily put in, and there is still a certain amount of space left.
