The 'people's car' is back, but only for people with 20 grand and change.
VW has also achieved a good roadgoing compromise on the new Passat, with a ride soft enough for the family vacation, yet with body-motion control that allows sporty driving. The Passat's body shell is 10 percent stiffer than its predecessor's, and it provides quietness and seclusion at near-luxury-class levels. With an industry-leading drag coefficient of 0.27, the Passat also produces little wind roar at speed.
Better rubber would also make the Passat livelier company. As it is, the Passat turns in willingly, hangs on well, and has well-mannered cornering habits. It rewards smooth inputs with surprisingly high cornering speeds before the front tires push wide, although it will squeal off-line immediately if you drop the car onto its outer front tire with fast steering inputs. When it's understeering, the Passat will tighten its line obediently as the throttle is trailed off.
