What is progress to you? Looking upon our skyline bathed in the glow of dusk against the Singapore River, it is hard not to be impressed. We have come a long way and developed technologies beyond our ancestors’ wildest dreams.

This technological progress also means that when it comes to automobiles, you don’t have to compromise. Your car is so much more than a metal shell on wheels – it is the culmination of an unrelenting march towards an ideal.

The Volkswagen Passat is not just any executive saloon. Its elegant and striking presence is like a sharp suit that hints at the luxury within.

Indeed, the Passat has been the benchmark for generations because it has been obsessively engineered and refined to be a paragon of sophistication, performance and dependability.

A STANDARD-SETTER

As you take the Passat’s wheel, you will find yourself massaged by the driver’s seat and ensconced amongst materials that are plush and pleasing to the touch. Indeed, the Passat is another example of Volkswagen’s expertise in building solid cars.

“The doors shut with an assured thud of a Volkswagen” has become a descriptor for quality throughout the car industry.

The Passat’s spacious cabin is built to the highest standards and can be equipped with advanced features.

Progress means leaving no thirst for technology unsated. Alongside a full-colour infotainment system, the Passat can be further optioned with a head-up display and the “Active Info Display”, a digital multifunction instrument cluster. Naturally, everything links seamlessly with your smartphone via App-Connect.

On the road, progress means a confident stance and effortless propulsion. This incisive roadholding and stellar comfort is combined with the model range’s 1.8 TSI and 2.0 TSI engines that power the car with graceful vigour.

The Passat is efficient, too, with the 1.8-litre model averaging 5.9L/100km and the 2-litre model averaging 6.4L/100km.

Every unflinching kilometre is an emphatic testament to the Passat’s core virtue of being a product of substance.

UNCOMPROMISING RELIABILITY

Progress delivers success, and you deserve to enjoy its rewards without worry. Knowing you have a car chiselled from robust German engineering means you can always depend on your Volkswagen.

A five-year warranty delivers the peace of mind that only a carmaker’s unwavering confidence in its product can provide. The seamless ownership experience is further enhanced by a threeyear/100,000km servicing package, which maintains your pride and joy to the highest standards.
