The new Volkswagen Passat GTE will offer drivers the very best of all worlds.
A winner in the Large Family Car class in the recent Next Green Car Awards even before its showroom debut, the new Passat GTE is available to order with prices starting at £36,525, excluding Government Plug-In Car Grant of £2,500. The first Passat with a state-of-the-art plug-in hybrid drive system, the innovative new car offers spirited performance alongside the possibility of zero emissions when driving in all-electric mode.
Available in saloon or estate body styles, the most environmentally responsible Passat to date emits just 39g of CO2 on the EU Combined Cycle, equating to fuel economy of 166 mpg.
Yet with 400 Nm of torque and combined system power of 218 PS, the new car can sprint from rest to 62 mph in a lively 7.6 seconds before heading to a top speed of 140 mph, where legal. The potential range between refuelling stops is more than 660 miles.
