With rumors flying around that the Volkswagen, the people’s car maker, is going to cease the production of their B segment Passat very soon, the doors for future design studies from the forward thinking group of German engineers have been opened.
The official sketch revealed, represents Volkswagen’s new mid size sedan that is planned to be built at their all new production facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee; right here in the good old U.S of A.
The design continues what the automaker started with their
Passat CC, considered to be their comfort coupe; the four door sedan gave the impression of a large sporty coupe with its sleek lines and swept back roofline. This new design study continues the theme with a very long and slender sedan.
Yet the complete details are not announced. We do not know what the future four doors VW will have hiding underneath the sheet metal. It is almost a given that there will be an
Audi Quattro derived all wheel drive versions as well as Volkswagen’s DSG gearbox.
What is still left to be speculated upon is exactly which power plant VW will choose for their new flagship sedan. As long as VW doesn’t get overwhelmed and try to recreate the Phaeton, no one can see where they could possibly go wrong.
