Volkswagen Passat Review 2024 | The car that will keep you from EV's

[@colinallan1962]

A pure petrol engined version would be preferable but the government are pushing us into electric versions and a plug in hybrid only makes sense if you do lots of local journeys ( and want to do it on electric ) and you can charge it at home overnight. Otherwise it’s simply adding cost and weight.

One thing is for sure, I don't enjoy breathing in exhaust fumes, especially from large old vehicles that create the black smoke of death as they step on the gas pedal.

[@milkyblanker2697]

why? whats your issue with MHEV?

[@blackcatsarenopussies]

TDI is king on this car

[@MeMyself-d2t]

I have a tdi 2.0 waiting for me to checking out, I'm in Sweden

[@agrubera75]

Hybrid means more things to go wrong: battery pack, electric motor etc etc. Also that huge display is awful and annoying like in Teslas, def not going to buy one like this.

[@milkyblanker2697]

just dont spec the increased screen. the standard one looks far better

[@elaxel1469]

I dont like this oversized infotainment screens. In 2030 they'll put a home cinema in the dashboard.

Ugly design, but otherwise probably one of the better cars you can buy.
