👉 2017 Volkswagen Passat 1.8T R-Line - Ultimate In-Depth Look in 4K

[@adrianmelendez9403]

New owner to this 2017 Passat R Line in 2023 just getting educated to everything. Happy so far. two thumbs up!

[@vwmatt33]

Just got my second R-Line in Urano grey with the light package. My first R-Line was in Fortanna Red. It's my second Urano color. My '12 CC was Urano. Love VW/Audi/Porsche grays

[@SchuylerBatdorf]

Great color choice! My CC was in light brown metallic, and with the '16 Golf R I went with limestone grey metallic. Our '15 passat is platinum gray metallic, and if the '17 R-line was available fully optioned/SEL, we'd be looking at trading up to a Urano R-line right now. A lot of the little details in the '17 R-line remind me of the inside of the '13 Golf R, color scheme, infotainment/surround bezel, steering wheel (they just removed the R logo on bottom, which is strange because it's R-line package anyway).

Best car review person by far.

[@Jokero_YT]

First thing I see is a guy running over his camera, my next feeling was WOW, this is awesome! I like!

[@mertz313]

I own an 04 Passat with the 1.8T engine w/191k miles.. And yes, that switch blade key is something I play with when I'm bored lmao

[@elisedouglass4355]

They've had the same key for 13 years? WTH!

[@alextran8188]

Elise Douglass who cares it's a key.. keys are meant to start a car, not a accessorie

[@TheHankerson]

I'm a tree has it given you any problems? Anything buyers should beware of?

[@reptilelvr10]

That color is freaking gorgeous 😍

[@perrismurillo5670]

Dude, you make the best car reviews keep it up!!!

[@MikesCarInfo]

Thank you Perris :)

[@mdub603]

The company I work for has a new Sportwagen with a similar radio and you overlooked one of the neatest things about it- it has a sensor between the radio knobs to detect your hand and it adds details to the icons when you get close. I was playing with it earlier this week and discovered that and thought it was a cool touch that keeps the screen cleaner looking when it isn't being used.

[@MikesCarInfo]

I thought for sure I mentioned that.

[@mdub603]

MikesCarInfo Geez I'm totally losing it, I just rewatched it and you do. Sorry for that!

[@arechigaa3]

Hey Mike, AMAZING review. I love every pixel, keep up the good work! *Sub*

[@MikesCarInfo]

Thanks for watching and your feedback :)

[@nydrell1969]

Hey that's the same colour as my passat.for an R-line we should get push start and led headlights

[@teknykill]

I have this car and its good to me. Do my oil/filter/air filter. Tune up was easy too. I have 2014 Jetta same Engine. Great info

[@1nessia23]

I Went looking for a new car today and I'm torn between this or a 2017 Malibu or optima. Great review I'm leaning towards the Passat

[@carltoncorreia8309]

No Sunroof, No leather? The R-Line should be be an option package that you can add to any level of Passat.

[@markrakov6009]

If you want sun roff and leather, you can get that in the comfortline package

[@raftash5279]

What? The passat R line in Australia has all of that. But then again, its aorund $50000 usd

[@MrTruckDriver]

Same here in Finland, if you choose the R-line here, you get evrything, you can add some option, but almost anything come standard for around 56k euro

[@psgamir2923]

It has it in the USA also

[@ronaldboykin9755]

Volkswagens are very expensive. They are almost expensive as the Audis when you start adding the options. I hate that they use vinyl instead of real leather for the money that you spend.

[@jaeepushaa2277]

I'm about to get this

[@lchimenz]

Could you give an impression of how the radio and speakers sound?

[@TheBagman99]

I’m super torn between this car or a 2018 Hyundai Sonata, which one is better?

[@aver4gegaming81]

I'm thinking about getting this car but the red color or the blue color

[@rohansingh9040]

hmmm maintenance will be a thing.

[@Eastcoastvolkswagen]

Hi Kyle - Those are some very popular colors on that vehicle and it looks sharp! We have at least 5 of those cars in stock down here in Myrtle Beach at East Coast Volkswagen. Even if you cannot make it down, I would suggest taking a look at our inventory along with this comparison page where we show you all the things the R-Line Passat does better than the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, the Ford Ford Fusion. www.eastcoastvolkswagen.com/2017Passat.htm In Regards to Maintenance - Volkswagen offers the "VW Care Program" where you can actually pre-buy all your scheduled maintenance up to 30,000 miles and roll that into your new car loan for as little as $10 a month which will let you drive worry free! This also adds to the resale value for your VW. Uou can learn more here: www.eastcoastvolkswagen.com/2017Passat.htm

So glad i got a CC Executive R-Line over this. Passat doesn't have keyless access, push button start, leather, Bi-xenon, or rear heating/cooling vents, and no sunroof or navigation. Granted it does have App Connect. My CC has full leather seating, power seats, navigation, Rear heating vents, Bi-xenon headlights with LED DRL's. My Executive R-Line also has more of the driver assistance aids than the Passat, it adds to the front assist by adding lane keep assist and adaptive cruise control.

[@scubadude18]

Do you know why the CC is $15,000 more? Cause it's built in Germany.. And you can't get the 2.0 TSI motor in the Passat.

[@avinoambartal9623]

how and where can you get the rubber mats which are shown in the video? will they fit to passat 2016 1.4 L?

[@MikesCarInfo]

+Avinoam Bartal The dealer sells them in the parts department.

[@avinoambartal9623]

Can you please publish dealer's contact details ?

[@MikesCarInfo]

You paid for them... trust me :)

[@Kfcyeh]

My 2014 vw Passat after 4 times repair-changing oil separator and replace rear seal at Punte Hills VW .it still leaks and even call to vw usa and email to VW USA. They could not help. The car currently only 35000 miles even with 5 year warranty Powertrain warranty. I don't know what to do it with oil leaking. Reply

[@1000ranch]

keep let them repair and repair no matter what.

[@Kfcyeh]

VW USA would not listen what I complain and believe what dealer said the leaking is OK although I did email those leaking oil picture to them. The day I drove to Puente Hills VW to complain my Passat. There were other 2016 or 2017 VW Jetta and Tigun with Warranty issues. No matter where VW assembled in USA, Mexico or German. The resell value of VW are worse than Hyundai or KIa. The price of New Passat were about $2500 higher than Sonata or Optima.

[@tcop30]

Do you like the new 1.8l engine or the old 2.0 better?

[@scubadude18]

2.0 without a doubt!

[@RebinDesigner]

like .. very nice ... but i have request for you ... that please publishe nissan navara 2016 or 2017 .... thank you ..

[@ronaldboykin9755]

I don't understand why Volkswagen cut the horsepower on the 2.0 liter 4 cylinder turbo engines down to 174 from 200. My 2008 Passat Kormfort has a 2.0 liter 4 cylinder turbo that puts out 200 horses. If I bough a newer Passat I would be giving up 30 horses but I'd be gaining technology.

[@markrakov6009]

Screw this, i rather get the sel trim on the passat with the 3.6 l v6

[@mehmetg7245]

Ive got a vw passat r line 2.0 and mine is amazing compared to this keyless go leds glad to have an eu version

[@drizzlesquad6758]

Where's the panic on the fob?

[@YasssStitch]

On the opposite side of the key part, look carefully when he's turning the fob around in his hand. You can see the red button.

[@medomsn21]

Needs sunroof and will be perfect

[@ayoheem]

Exactly what I said

[@rohansingh9040]

So after paying this much you don't get projector beams.

[@Eastcoastvolkswagen]

Hi Rohan - Volkswagen offers a package called the "Lighting Package" on most of its models that are not in the top trim level. Even with that added package, the Passat R-Line is still over $1,000 less than say a Honda Accord Sport. MSRP = $23,975.

[@rohansingh9040]

East Coast Volkswagen in that case i'm looking forward to explore more.thanks for suggesting.

[@jackdckr]

Lol the passats in the us are sooo shitty compared to eu :p

[@65strad]

Best, most reliable car I've owned including my 2011 German built Base GTI with DSG. 147,853 bought new, ZERO SQUEAKS or RATTLES. Just regular maintenance. Fantastic value

[@johnathanbraddock3162]

Yeah cause you know the exhaust runs out of the back of the car... lol

[@manhnguyen3123]

Passat in Viet Nam: goo.gl/BHKzMs

[@unijabass]

Mạnh Nguyễn Haha, looks like we in the USA are having the worst and uglies of all versions

[@marceck1]

19" wheels on a small car like this is probably the worst ride you could ever get. And of course, this reviewer does not mention the durability and cost of those ridiculous ghetto tires. This fad is the biggest rip-off put together by tire companies in the US the past decade.. Don't be a sucker, stick to 16 or 17's on a car this weight.

[@thedude2897]

marceck1 wtf are you talking about? I have 19 inch tires and they aren't any more expensive then 16s.

[@vinnievintage7725]

JUST bought one!! It handles great and the rims look ohhhhhhh sooooo good! Clazzy.

[@Newtrail100]

The grill looks something like from 1997.

[@adamwelsch7308]

This guy put me to sleep

[@zhivkomarinov5449]

Poor car.

[@ckloh5938]

This is fake Passat

[@Naurrrr818]

Ck Loh No it isn't lol. It's almost impossible to get a fake in the US.

[@larbilucas9422]

I think he is talking about the German Passat which is more luxury and generally called "The Real Passat"

[@rahulsaikia9014]

VW fucked up the front and interior............

[@unijabass]

Looks like piece of crap compared with European model, wth

[@european1114]

unijabass European Passat doesn’t look any better it’s same shit!!!!! Small difference inside. Outside this one looks even better 😁🇩🇪 European looks good only on high trim level. And I am European. Mazda 6 is the king!!!!
