2015 VW Passat (B8) 2.0 TDI (150hp) – DRIVE & SOUND (1080p)

This week I present to You the full Drive & Sound test with the all new 2015/2016 Volkswagen Passat (B8) Sedan / Limousine powered by the popular 2.0 TDi delivering 150 hp and 340 Nm of torque. This particular car comes in “Comfortline” with 16 inch winter-wheels and the 6-speed manual transmission. Even in this “entry-level” trim this car is close to perfect as the engine pulls nicely and quiet, the agility and ride comfort ist very good and consumption was always at 5.x….even on the Autobahn. As you see in the video the acceleration is pretty much as expected, being not really slower than the same engine in the Golf 7. I don’t know if I always hit the shifts perfect but overall this is a marvelous manual transmission with crisp yet very comfortable shifts. Unfortunately I was not able get either CarNet or MirrorLink going as the car didn’t have the SIM-Module and MirrorLink was not activated yet. Still, with the Discovery Media you get a very slick Infotainment System for a moderate price which (due to a new processor) is significantly faster than the “small” navigation system in the Golf 7. Now its your turn, what do you think about the new Passat? Please make sure to LIKE / COMMENT & SUBSCRIBE and don’t miss the full Drive & Sound of this car on Automann-TV!
