Title: 2015 Passat Gallery
Post by: MikLSP on July 04, 2014, 09:09:14 pm: There is a nice gallery of official pictures of the new Passat HERE (http://www.motorauthority.com/pictures/1093119_2015-volkswagen-passat-european-spec-revealed_gallery-1#).

I really like it, much sleeker than the outgoing model. Can't wait to see the CC version.

All new cars are beginning to look so similar.

everyone is doing it

I can't tell a BMW 3 series from a 5 series.

it does my head in if I am honest. They all look the same now. just make them a bit bigger for each model

I actually think the front looks great, much better than the current one which is rather bland.

Will reserve final judgement until I see one in person but in the photos it looks like they are trying to take it upmarket. The lines are similar to you'd find on a BMW or Audi. Impressive considering the engine is still transversely mounted.
