2006 Volkswagen Passat Road Test Ratings

Available in both wagon and sedan versions, all Passats are comfortable and fun to drive.

The powerful motor motivates this sedan and wagon smartly, and returns good skidpad numbers.

Roomy inside, with seats that are highly adjustable. Rides quietly and smoothly.

Audi-like interior controls are attractive and easy to operate.

Volkwagen's new design theme works well on this scale.
