Exterior Its a beauty! The front view is awesome with the day time running lights. Crome is used liberally and gives a very luxurious look.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) It is absolutely loaded with features. After considerable (a lot) debate I purchased this car over the Audi A6 2.0 tdi and boy am I glad that I did. With the price almost 9 lakh lesser I got a whole lot more... I am happy!
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Everything is perfect.
Ride Quality & Handling Very good.
Final Words True value for money. Features in this car match cars that are twice (if not thrice) the cost! Granted the VW logo lacks the appeal of the BMW, Audi, Jaguar or a Merc; but who cares! After all I do not need those brands to show to the world that I have arrived... I'd rather enjoy the subtle and fine luxuries that the VW Passat Highline has to offer and have a whole lot healthier Bank Balance...:)...!

Exterior Very good looking, nice day light LEDs, Sun roof of no use
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Excellent Features, comfortable, good looking Black interior, good leg room as compared to other cars of the same segment.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Driving Comfort, blue motion technology is excellent
Ride Quality & Handling Very useful parking assistance
Final Words Very good car with very bad support. After sales service is very bad. I had to send my Brand new passat to the workshop just after driving 50 km. The car was at the workshop for 4 days. There was no answer for the cause from the delear B U Bhandari as well as Volkswagan. The delear was not ready to take any responsibility. The staff was not answering phone calls!!!! The treatment was like a beger after paying 30 Lacs. There is a customer care department but it does not care for the customers.
Areas of improvement After Sales Service.
Good looks, very good featuresVery very bad after sales support from B U Bhandari as well as Volkswagan. There is no care for CustRating parameters(out of 5)4Exterior/Styles

Exterior Nice.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Be careful with oil since it will destroy the engine and cost lakhs in repair. Only use synthetic which is 3-4x more expensive than regular [mineral] oil. Don't allow excess oil filling since it will also damage engine without any warning lights.
Ride Quality & Handling Fine.
Final Words Avoid buying any used passat diesel since many have odometer tampering and the service centre won't share the history in a pre-sales inspection due to 'confidentiality' unless you are the registered owner!
Areas of improvement A single diesel injector costs rs. 75 k in delhi and rs. 71 k in mumbai the 2.0turbo engine needs 4 replaced so rs. 3 lacs in parts + labour + taxes! even used cost rs. 25 k each in delhi. worst car ever owned - total money pit. Engine will sieze up in the middle of the highway so it can be very dangerous if truck hits from behind.
safety, performance, styleunreliable and very fragile; exorbitant spare costsRating parameters(out of 5)4Exterior/Styles

Exterior
Impressive and big - with this car you can convey the message that "you have arrived". It makes you feel special with light effects and few other features. Generous usage of chrome all around gives it a clearly distinguished image and presence in upmarket league
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Black original leather interior looks good; though supporter of beige color interiors in India may have different view. However, globally, black leather interiors are associated with high end version of luxury cars. Airconditioned / heated seats very comfortable, loaded with features which no other car at this price point carry
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Engine (same as in Audi A4 but with higher 168 bhp as opposed to A4's 140 odd bhp) is quite strong puller, For a change, Fuel economy is actually better than claimed by company.. (if you drive sensibly)
Ride Quality & Handling
Absorbes most of the road unevenness, handling good, very silent inside
Final Words
Areas of improvement
Vehicle manual provided by VW is not consistent with presence / absence of couple of features in Indian version of vehicle. Overall, I also found it not so informatively and fluidely written. This factor is important when you are trying to get used to the vehicle during first few weeks.
Exterior Looks, Interior Feel, Build strenght, Several invisible detailing to engineering aspectNothing so far. VW need to customise its vehicle manual to Indian versionRating parameters(out of 5)4Exterior/Styles
