Why it stands out
The 2018 Volkswagen Passat stands out in the crowded midsize sedan segment thanks to its spacious interior and impressive features. With a larger cabin than many competitors, the Passat offers excellent legroom for both front and rear passengers, along with substantial trunk space. The introduction of a new 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivers an efficient performance of 174 horsepower and an 8% improvement in fuel economy compared to previous models. This enhanced engine allows for a smooth ride coupled with peppy acceleration, making daily commutes enjoyable. Additionally, the Passat offers advanced safety features that buyers will appreciate, such as available blind-spot monitoring and a forward-collision warning system with automatic emergency braking. While some users have noted the absence of luxury features like memory seats, the overall value and functionality of the Passat make it a compelling choice for those seeking comfort without compromising on safety and performance.

You get a lot of bang for your buck with the VR6 in this surprisingly roomy sedan. The rear seat and trunk room is impressive. Pros - VR6 is powerful and pulls strong in any gear at any speed. It also has a wonderful throaty exhaust note. Put a Borla exhaust on this and you gain about 30 bhp and wow does it sound mean! - LED headlights are wonderful for night time visibility. - Tons of trunk space for a mid-sized sedan. - Handles well through turns with only minimum body roll. - Lots of standard safety features - AEB, Rear cross traffic alert, blind spot monitor, etc. Cons - Soft steering - Skinny tires, need more rubber on the road to use all that horsepower without chirping or spinning when the lead foot is unleashed. -

I have the SE Trim level. Roomy sedan that fits two adults up front and two kids plus a car seat in the back. On top of that it has the pep and acceleration of a sports car. Smooth ride yet fun to drive. The perfect all around combination.

We are very happy with the 2018 Passat. It is roomy inside and has a huge truck. The back seats drop for more storage too. It has a great backup camera and apple car play . Unfortunately it does not have a home link system to link garage doors or a seat memory button. The driver’s side has a power seat but no memory button. There is great pick up and it rides nicely. Definitely a good value car.
