In Russia, the updated and current Volkswagen Passat SS has been on sale since 2012. Less than a year before, within the framework of international motor show in Los Angeles, the German automaker presented new version his Volkswagen Passat SS 2012-2014. So this model relevant to this day. The new generation, that is, the B8, should be expected some time after the release of the original series, whose sales will begin early next year.
For a domestic motorist, the name Passat is associated with high level quality, reliability, comfort, unique style. Not surprisingly, the sales level of this model is always high.
As for the SS itself, the Volkswagen company created it in order to impose a fight on elegant cars from BMW and Mercedes. The most interesting thing is that the German auto giant succeeded. Their car turned out to be magnificent in appearance, and even costs less than its competitors. Therefore, it was the duty of Volkswagen to continue the SS line.
In general, the company had to take risks by releasing its Comfort Coupe, since it was difficult to imagine how the public would react to such unusual car. On the one hand, it looks like a sedan, although it also looks like a coupe. One way or another, the Germans guessed right and created another masterpiece that is popular all over the world. In three years, from spring 2008 to winter 2011, the company sold more than 330,000 of its Passat SS.
Now we will try to tell you in detail about the current 2014 Volkswagen Passat CC, since there is not much left to wait until the official presentation of the new CC based on the Passat B8.
Exterior
Actually, appearance this vehicle- this is its main advantage. From the photo and numerous videos, you can understand for yourself how attractive and elegant the Volkswagen turned out to be. This is one of those cars that willy-nilly see you off, meeting him on the road.
The front end is distinguished by a narrow trim grille with chrome strips, tapered headlights, a refined grille and a bumper with swivel fog lights. In general, the front came out light, elegant, unique. Plus, the hood, like a thin line, goes neatly to the roof, and from there it follows to the trunk.
In profile, the car looks no less harmonious. It is immediately clear that the manufacturer thought about the comfort of the driver and passengers, providing them with access to the cabin through wide doors. At the same time, engineers paid close attention to aerodynamic drag and tried to minimize it. We end up getting bloated wheel arches, perfect roof lines, missing glass frames and neat exterior mirrors. All this is complemented rims by 17-18 inches.
Behind the miracles continue. Here, the Volkswagen Passat SS is distinguished by a small trunk lid, a spoiler, a competent arrangement of optics, clearance lamps based on LEDs and an impressive bumper with strict lines.

The steering wheel sits comfortably in your hands, equipped with many buttons and controls. The driver and front passenger seats are almost identical, boasting excellent lateral support. Steering column adjustable over a wide range of settings, exactly like the chair. As a result, even a person over 190 centimeters tall will easily adjust the position of the seat and steering wheel for themselves.
The instrument panel consists of large dials and a multifunctional on-board computer. On dashboard all available necessary for the driver information. Plus, it looks easy, readable and bright.
The center console was designed in best traditions manufacturer, to create the buttons used a very pleasant to the touch material, placed all the necessary controls.
But at the back, problems may arise when landing more than two adult passengers. And the manufacturer himself recklessly noticed that they adapted the back row to maximum comfort two. At the same time, they offer as an option to order a full-fledged three-seater sofa. Is it necessary? Well, if you are going to carry not only two adults, but also one child in the back, then in the middle it will fit without problems.

Owner reviews
Beware of the Volkswagen! An excellent story for fans of the brand, to which, until recently, I considered myself. Volkswagen Passat CC 2012 mileage about 75,000 km, manual. The flywheel collapsed, which also entailed the need to replace the clutch kit! I repeat - at 75,000 km (!).
With all this, I am quite a calm and careful driver! All maintenance was carried out in a timely manner and exclusively on dealer service. And this is not a Polo, but quite a decent, as it seemed, car of the middle class ... You will think about the resource of a car of a European brand ...
Well, anyway, the Passat SS is a nice car that drives very nicely ... It’s a pity that it’s unreliable ...
Alexander, review of VW Passat CC 1.8 manual transmission 2012
Video review
What can I tell you about the car after a certain amount of time:
1. Appearance and internal ergonomics for 5 points. The seats are especially pleasing, very comfortable, after 1,000 km of continuous driving, the back does not hurt.
2. The dynamics are enough with the head, very confident overclocking. This is especially true for me on the highway, 100-140 km / h is gaining very quickly. Gasoline consumption in the city is about 11 liters with moderate quiet ride, on the highway - about 8 liters. I fill in the 98th in the summer and in the offseason, in the winter - the 95th.
3. The suspension is moderately stiff, rolls are minimal, you ride in corners like you are on rails.
4. The trunk is large, but has a fairly narrow opening, so strollers enter with difficulty.
5. Frameless glass, of course, is beautiful, but not entirely practical for our winters.
6. Oil consumption is a sore subject for many who have turbo engines. I add about 2 liters for 8,000 km. Think, increased consumption due to the peculiarity of operation, since I mainly travel short distances, so in winter the car does not have time to warm up to operating temperature, and, of course, the more you press the slippers on the floor, the greater the oil consumption.
7. Noise isolation. There is nothing to compare with, but in general it is quiet in the cabin, sometimes crickets appear in winter and also disappear.
Review of Volkswagen Passat CC 1.8 (152 hp) with mechanics 2011 onwards
Gone are the days when the German auto industry was almost the standard of quality. Current cars, regarding Volkswagen, are unreasonably expensive and of very mediocre quality. Passat CC does not belong to the premium class. This car is for mere mortals. But the costs are commensurate with the premiums ...
This is a car for Napoleons - small people up to 165 cm tall, and if you are 180, then you will feel very uncomfortable. The car is like a beautiful sexy girl, with whom you become a few points more expensive. But the girl is not adapted to everyday life. They don’t marry such people, they use them and run to the comfort of another family.
I will take to the merits appearance, good interior, dynamics and handling. Disadvantages identified in two years of operation:
- If you buy a new one, then remember that you will lose a lot with the subsequent sale. If bought on secondary market post-warranty car, then keep at least 100,000 rubles in reserve for investments.
- The price is incommensurable with the quality! The warranty was to replace the clutch and … again the replacement of the clutch! Also repaired stove fan and air conditioning.
— Paintwork... just tin!
— Low landing, strictly for good roads.
— Shumka for the money just zero!
Nikita Ivanov, review of the 2013 Volkswagen Passat SS 1.8 DSG
There is no need to talk about appearance, and so everything is clear. Here is a solid five. The main thing is that inside the car looks no worse. Everything is worthy and thoughtful. The plastic is very soft, the leather is of high quality and comfortable. In general, touching the "insides" of the car is a pleasure. There is plenty of room both front and rear. There is no damage to the legs. Pleases with its size and trunk, it's just huge.
During the break-in (and this is about 5 thousand kilometers), I did not accelerate the car over 100 km / h and kept the speed no higher than 3 thousand. But even at this time, the Passat SS impressed with its dynamics and desire to go.
When the first MOT came up (15 thousand kilometers), the oil pressure light came out. It turned out that you need to add a liter of oil. Before that, I studied the manual for the car, so I knew that there was nothing wrong with that.
In winter, I was afraid that the glass would freeze to the rubber bands, because many people complain about it. But no, I didn't have any of that. Perhaps it was the fact that the winter was quite mild. Let's see how they will behave in the cold at 30 degrees.
As I said, the car is very delicate, even fragile. In the spring, one wheel flew into the pit. The blow, of course, was strong, but not supernatural. On my previous car, I didn’t get into such alterations. So, the tire burst, the disk bent. But this is not so bad, the main thing is that the hub and thrust bearings! It's good that this happened in the city, and not somewhere on the highway ...
Yes, here's another thing, the settings of the head optics have already gone astray four times. In general, the rotary bi-xenon stopped turning. The problem was fixed at the dealer using a computer.
I also came to the conclusion that the disks of the 18th radius are a fiend. The car is already harsh, and with them it looks more like a stool. Here on the 17th - just right.
Nikolay, review about Passat CC 2.0 (210 hp) with DSG robot 2014 onwards.
Pinch me, I'm dreaming! The seats feel harder than a wooden park bench. The lacquer coating immediately seemed to me of poor quality. The manager replied that it comes with a 3 year warranty. Well, let's see. The car has a very low ground clearance, more precisely, the clearance seems to be normal, but it catches the slightest bumps in a terrible way. I'm afraid to tear up holes exhaust pipe and muffler.
Perhaps, only the dynamics during acceleration so far emphasizes the class and the declared price of this car. The car provides, or rather was provided, an interesting option: remote (!) Reclining backrest seats. I have never backed down. Maybe I'm not clicking in the right place...
The machine is not very convenient, especially when overtaking. At the most critical moment, the robot shifts to the top gear and blunts. rear shelf wide, but absolutely stupid, since its height is 10-15 centimeters, and you can only put a small folder for papers there. Finding a place for a first aid kit there is already beyond dreams.
The disadvantages are:
1. Inconvenient disembarkation-landing.
2. Cheap salon.
3. Poor quality plastic.
4. Hard seats.
5. Rigid suspension.
6. Unsatisfactory visibility.
7. Inappropriate use of internal space.
8. Noise isolation is higher than domestic, but I expected more from the Passat.
9. Poor-quality body painting.
10. Cardboard bumpers.The owner drives a Volkswagen Passat SS 3.6 (300 HP) 4Motion 2014
four-door Volkswagen coupe Passat CC, built on the VW Passat B6 platform, first saw the light in 2008. Doubling the letters at the end of the model name VW Passat CC stands for the German phrase Comfort-Coupe. The sporty and slightly “flattened” body shape of the Volkswagen Passat SS really echoes the concept of a comfort coupe.
At the end of 2011, the model was restyled, as a result of which its appearance began to combine the features of a business class sedan and a luxurious sports two-door. The Volkswagen Passat SS differs significantly from the classic Passat in its exterior. The stylistic image of the Volkswagen Passat CC has stepped forward several steps. The appearance of the VW Passat CC pleases with its dynamic and elegant body lines with a touch of sportiness. The silhouette of the Volkswagen Passat SS is formed in the style characteristic of a coupe, and the unsurpassed comfort inside it is fully consistent with the business class. The interior of the Volkswagen Passat SS is top notch.
It is known that the Volkswagen Passat CC was not conceived by the Germans as a modification of the usual Passat. A car of a completely different, more comfortable class, occupying a niche between the classics and Phaeton, is how the Volkswagen Passat SS is positioned by the automaker, the price of which is twice less cost executive sedan german mark. In contrast to the cost of "Phaeton", which exceeds three million in the initial performance, Volkswagen price PassatCC can reach up to two million, but if we are talking about the top-end configuration of the restyled version. If we take front wheel drive car on the "mechanics" with a 1.8 TSI engine under the hood, then such a Passat CC, the price of which will be 1,136 thousand rubles, can accelerate to hundreds in 8.6 seconds.
In our market, the Volkswagen Passat SS is presented in a wide range of modifications. In addition to the traditional manual transmission, the car is optionally equipped with a branded “robot” with two clutches - DSG, which is distinguished by high precision of the mechanism and soft gear shifting. For Russian buyers a modification of the VW Passat CC with all-wheel drive and the most powerful "six" with a volume of 3.6 liters is also available.
Salon Volkswagen Passat CC
Most details interior decoration Volkswagen Passat SS is not much different from the classic Passat. However, a persistent feeling expensive car does not leave due to the plump steering wheel, more embossed seats, instruments in the wells with white backlighting and a new control unit for the multimedia complex and climate control. Pretty cheap plastic, used in the trim of the VW Passat CC, does not spoil the impression of a premium sedan.
The front seats of the Volkswagen Passat CC have more pronounced lateral support, which hints at the partly sporty character of the car. Although wheelbase VW Passat CC has remained the same, the rear seats have been reduced.
All sorts of bells and whistles deserve special attention, such as a system that ensures that the car does not leave the line road markings or a smart rear view camera. Car enthusiasts will definitely appreciate the convenient navigation system and, of course, the parking attendant.
