The interior is a VW Passat one.
Otherwise it is that, but the sum of all this does not work at all at the rear from the bad pic I saw. The front and interior is okay though.

Can't VW make a decent sedan anymore?

First they made the new Passat much worse than the previous one and now this...

At least the interior is really nice (resembling the old A6).

I'm surprised you don't like the current Passat. Why not?

I'm surprised too. I hated the previous generation Passat but I like the current one very much.

Ιt's not that i hate it or something but the previous model looked more upscale at it's time.
The interior materials are also cheap looking , worse than before.

I agree with Yanni. I took my mother's previous generation Passat to get serviced yesterday and sat in the current version, and though the current interior has more design flair to it, the materials are not as good and neither is the fit. There were some nice touches in the interior but the little compartments didn't open smoothly, the doors are very akwardly designed with now wood or aluminum trim anywhere.

Interesting. I too liked the old Passat, but I like the new one better. Well the Passat and Jetta are on my list for a 2nd car so I'll be taking a closer look at the Passat in the Spring. I've driven the Jetta already and I loved it, but it may be too small.
