Volkswagen Passat Engines and Transmissions

Volkswagen Passat engine options span several fuels and gearboxes. The 1.4 MT Sedan pairs a gasoline unit with a manual box, the 1.6 DSG Estate 5-door offers frugal diesel motorway cruising, and the GTE 1.4 DSG Estate 5-door adds plug-in hybrid drive. All these examples send power to the front wheels.

Volkswagen Passat Trims and Equipment

Volkswagen Passat trim levels sit on top of the mechanical package rather than changing it. The gasoline 1.4 DSG Sedan, for instance, is offered as Business or Exclusive, so the same engine and robotic transmission can come with different upholstery, comfort features and interior detailing depending on the version you choose.

Volkswagen Passat Battery, Range, Charging

Volkswagen Passat battery capacity matters most on the GTE versions, sold in both Sedan and Estate 5-door form, which store energy in a lithium-ion pack. In daily use you charge from a wall box or socket, run short trips on electricity, then let the gasoline engine handle longer distances.
