Looks great, responsive in acceleration, handling, and braking. Had it about a month. Previous cars were Camry XLE V6 and Infiniti I30. VW has a 110+ wheelbase which gives it a better ride than my Camry. The 2.0 TDI is responsive - 3.9 torque and breaks loose if not careful. Ride is quiet on 18" wheels. Previous reviewer got a Base model, with a 5 cylinder engine. If he paid $32k it was well over List Price!

Unfortunately, I'm slowly finding out the things about this particular vehicle that I intensely dislike, no dipstick to check the transmission fluid levels, an antiquated motor oil filtration system, plastic shield covering the transmission fluid and crankcase pans which creates more problems. Other issues which are troublesome for me would be changing the transmission fluid which my local VW service has informed me that the price will be approximately $375 dollars, along with $52 dollars for a fuel cap, coupled with a myriad of other problems, simply leads me to a conclusion that this 2014 Passat Wolfsburg Edition 2.5 must have had its genisis in hell. I would have given a negative zero for this rating, but that was not available.

Burns oil, shifts very poorly and although it is a gas engine it has slowly become as loud as a diesel. Please do not buy this car if you value reliability.
