equipped with a 1.8L 20 valve double

its category. The engine in
the new Passat Wagon boasts a respectable
170 horsepower @ 5900 rpm and torque of
166 ft-lbs. @ 1950 rpm using premium unleaded
fuel. The drive train and suspension of
the new Passat Wagon is remarkable in that
it offers a 5-speed manual transmission
and front wheel drive with four-wheel independent
suspension front and a rear stabilizer bar.
Control and road stability in the new 2008
Volkswagen Passat Wagon is accomplished
by ventilated front disc / solid rear disc
brakes, 4-wheel ABS, and
traction control. A leader in safety, the
2008 Passat Wagon comes with front side-mounted
airbags, front and rear head airbags, front
and rear seatbelt pretensioners, rear door
child safety locks, child seat anchors,
rear center 3-point belt 2 front headrests,
3 rear headrests, a remote anti-theft alarm
system, engine immobilizer, and daytime

handsome 2008 Volkswagen Passat Wagon with
remarkable styling and good looks.

Models |
| Form
and function - ever apparent in the VW design and engineering.
Both of these attributes are quickly found in the Volkswagen
Beetle and Volkswagen
Beetle Convertible. As with the Beetle - all models
of Volkswagen exhibit the same drive and determination
of their engineers. You will see this in the Volkswagen
Cabrio, Volkswagen
Passat, Volkswagen
Jetta and Volkswagen
Passat Wagon the moment you slide into the drivers seat.
VW's also thrown in some bonuses into the Volkswagen
GTI, its sporty edition of the Volkswagen
Golf that will rev your spirits! For those more -
mobile drivers - the functionality and design of the Volkswagen
Eurovan are sure to satisfy your nomadic roots.
