Volkswagen plans to launch Passat 2011 in April

Volkswagen plans to launch the all new Passat in April this year. The Passat will get the new VW family look with the new grille and headlamps and will be the 7th generation of the Passat. Enhanced safety features one among them being the Automatic Distance Control system will find its way into the Passat. Unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in 2010 this car will finally be launched in India. The new Passat is expected to be larger than the current generation and should be powered by a 140hp, 2.0-litre diesel engine with a six-speed DSG. So, all those who missed the diesel engine and the DSG in the Passat, will be pleased not just with the powertrain but even overall styling and features. The Passat will be priced at around 20-25 lakh and will certainly be a something to look forward to.
