GALLERY VW Passat R-Line combines clever thinking with style
SETTING new benchmarks in design and intuitive technology is the Volkswagen Passat R-Line.
Featuring a striking exterior combined with state-of-the-art technology and heat-racing R-line package, it makes for the ideal motoring machine.
Volkswagen Passat R-Line's longer wheelbase and shorter front and rear overhangs contribute to a more raked silhouette, creating a road presence that is at once lithe and dynamic.
Trapezoidal headlights and tail lights connect via a bold shoulder line that sweeps across the wheel arches, incorporating the door handles and adding elegance to the Passat's stance.
From the front the unmistakably Volkswagen face takes a convincing evolutionary step, with angular front fog lights fitting harmoniously into the progressive design ethic.
Best of all Passat styling reaches its pinnacle with the optional R-Line Package (pictured), with R-line styled front bumper and grille, side sills and rear bumper as well as lowered sports suspension, eye catching 19" Verona alloy wheels, dark tinted rear side and rear window glass and a distinctive R-Line radiator grille and R-Line logo.
On the inside, Passat's extensively redesigned interior features a host of equipment and premium details to present new levels of comfort, convenience and functionality.
A new multi-function steering wheel provides intuitive control of both drive settings and multimedia interface, while an ergonomically focused driving position puts all controls at your fingertips at any time.
Three-zone automatic climate control with wide air-band nozzles allows the driver, front passenger and rear passengers to set their own preferred temperature independently.
The state-of-the-art 8" Discover Media navigation system is easy to operate and features innovative App-Connect technology.
The App-Connect works by allowing selected smartphone apps to be easily displayed and operated via the Passat's Infotainment touchscreen.
It's instinctively clever too.
