VW Releases Latest Sketch of Upcoming Passat Replacement

Volkswagen has released a brand new sketch of its upcoming NMS sedan that will be built at its Chattanooga factory that is currently under construction. The yet unnamed Passat replacement will go on sale in late 2011 as a 2012 model year. Expect to see familiar VW engines such as the 2.0T, 2.0 TDI, and possibly the 3.6 liter VR6 in the larger and Americanized sedan.

Fair enough. I suppose, being 2 years away it is a bit much to expect much more than that. As I've always stated, VW should concentrate on reliability and lower cost, more than building cars for the "American" market. Americans buy VWs for their European flavour at somewhat reasonable prices. I believe they are making a severe mistake. We would have thought they would have learnt from the first Rabbit/Golf debacle of the 70s/80s and recently with that bullshit return of the Rabbit name. Like Toyota, I think greed is pushing VW, more than common sense.
