The Passat is very stylish and has a rather mature look. The performance in terms of handling and gas mileage make for a great experience for the driver. The interior with built in gps is a great plus and all of the electronics are user-friendly. Rarely has the car had maintenance problems other than a few issues with the stitching on the driver's side seat and a minor electronic issue with the window controls. Both issues were resolved quickly and did make me feel any less confident in my vehicle.

This car has excellent ride quality, along with great gas mileage with the diesel engine.
