VW Passat B8 Variant 2.0 TDI SCR Conceptline DSG - Long-range vehicle

Is the VW Passat suitable for long distances? If one asks the question whether this motor vehicle is also suitable for longer distances, one has to consider different aspects, comfort, tank volume, top speed...

The tank capacity (59 liters) is rather average in size, but in conjunction with the good average consumption (4.1 liters / 100km), you can sometimes cover very long ranges with the VW Passat. An important criterion for frequent drivers: the top speed. This is 198 km/h and is thus quite suitable for long distances if you don't want to permanently stay above the 200 mark. At least as important on long journeys is the comfort and interior space. With a length of 4773 mm, the car is one of the big ones - adequate suspension, upholstery and noise insulation should be standard here.

The integrated distance cruise control ensures both safe and relaxed travel by automatically maintaining both the speed and the distance to the vehicle in front. Of course, air conditioning is a must for comfortable journeys. Here, even an automatic air conditioning system is installed, i.e. the air volume and temperature is automatically adjusted to the interior temperature, while a simple air conditioning system has to be operated manually. The integrated lane departure warning system helps the driver stay on the lane.
