The power driver seat allows easy positioning, and the split folding rear seat offers flexibility for passengers and cargo. Steering wheel-mounted audio controls keep critical functions within reach.
Safety features demonstrate Volkswagen's commitment to protection. Dual front impact airbags work alongside dual front side impact airbags and overhead airbags. Blind spot monitoring provides crucial awareness, while electronic stability control and traction control help maintain vehicle stability. Four-wheel independent suspension absorbs road imperfections, and four-wheel disc brakes with ABS provide responsive stopping power.
The Premium VIII touch-screen radio system keeps you connected with AM/FM reception and SiriusXM satellite radio. Eight speakers deliver clear audio quality. USB ports provide device connectivity, and the radio data system displays relevant information. Speed control enables relaxed highway driving, while the trip computer tracks efficiency metrics important to diesel owners.
Modern conveniences enhance daily operation. Fully automatic headlights with delay-off functionality reduce driver effort, while variably intermittent wipers adapt to weather conditions. Heated door mirrors clear quickly in winter, and the rear window defroster ensures visibility. Remote keyless entry, illuminated entry lighting, and an overhead console complete the user-friendly design.
This Passat TDI SE represents a proven platform that delivers on its promise of efficiency and capability for drivers ready to experience diesel ownership.
