Nicer than the old-before-it's-launched new Mondeo, but this just seems so derivative to me. I think we're going through another 'all new cars look the same' phase at the moment.

Actually I quite like that it seems to be looking a little more "Audi" on the front, looks that bit meaner to me...

Is it still golf based or will this one go back to being Audi based?

I do enjoy a hofmeister kink (fnar fnar). Does this mean it's RWD?

Would love to see the new 240bhp bi-turbo diesel make its way into other parts of the VAG range.

Looks a bit better than the current car, which I think looks perfectly decent in an inoffensive, conservative kind of way. VW are never ever going to do anything radical with the Passat, or the Golf, or the Polo, as they know what sells to their target market.

However I was hoping for a slightly more interesting interior. The one pictured looks OK, but in bog standard grey 'n' black (as nearly all of them will be) it's not far from the current functional-but-oh-so-dull one.

Bland rep mobile that could be a BMW a Toyota a Kia a Lexus........sleep











But will sell because it's a VW so it must be good and the fleet buyers will love it.
We're looking at the 2020 taxi.

Looks nice enough. Like a Passat really, nice enough, pretty smart but rather boring.
I like the interior, are those dials a screen like the Range Rover?

Just another 'corporate look' saloon from the VAG

No doubt it will be more refined and more spacious than previous but......oh I'm sorry I just fell asleep cool
