Jalopnik: Oh boy, a new Passat, for Americans!

It certainly looks better as a wagon.

that's the euro-passat. i'm not sure we'll get a wagon because I heard VW wants a highlander-sized crossover. possibly complete with its own little shit as well.
 
It is good as an Estate - I can testify to that - had a rental - 6 speed Gear Box and 1.9 TDI - lovely for what it is designed for - the motorway!
 
Does anyone else feel like this new Passat is just Jetta + 15% larger? I really fail to see the differences. This whole VW image theme has carried on a little too much. I can remember when each car looked obviously different but I knew it was a VW.

Bahhh...

I sorta see your point, yeah. I do think the design will age very well though, while stuff like the overwrought CC well....won't.
