2018 Volkswagen Passat

For 2018, the Passat gets an updated four-cylinder engine with more power and improved fuel efficiency. If the 2018 Volkswagen Passat looks exceedingly familiar, that's likely because it's soldiered on with the same look since the current generation debuted six years ago. But that's also a testament to all that the Passat gets right: reserved but timeless style to match its practical personality.The Passat isn't the go-to sedan if you're seeking flash and flair, but its roomy cabin, large and useful shape of its trunk, and easy-to-drive nature make it an excellent family shuttle, a car for around-town driving with friends or colleagues, or long-distance road tripping in quiet comfort. -Edmund's Expert Review
