Volkswagen Doubles Incentives To Move The Metal After Cheating Surfaces

Volkswagen AG, trying to woo U.S. consumers amid its diesel emissions cheating scandal, is offering new-vehicle discounts that by one measure are almost twice the industry average.

Current owners of VW-brand vehicles can get interest-free loans along with rebates of up to $2,000, as well as low-cost leases. During the first week of this month, the brand’s average discount to the sticker price was 11.1 percent, compared with the industry’s 6.2 percent, according to TrueCar, a website that tracks car pricing.

Drove by a local VW joint, big letters on the cars out front $5,000 off, $7,000 off, etc. For a second thought it was a Chevy stealership ;)

The North American version of the Passat is not the same as the EU version. Perhaps this will change in the future, but not so far. As far as the 2016 NA version, it should be on the streets soon, if not already.
