One of the best German car coming to India: The Volkswagen Passat

Now this particular post is purely for my love for this German car: The Volkswagen Passat. I love everything about this vehicle. I drove this car in 2004 for a month and since then I have been in awe with it. Not only the engine of this is best in world (some may not agree), but it is one of the sturdiest and most reliable cars on the road.

I was so happy to read that Volkswagen would be launching their first “assembled in India” model sometime later this year. The first model that they are launching would be “Luxury Sedan Passat”.

In US, Volkswagen Passat costs in the range of $25,000/- (around 9 lakh rupees), but in India with the kind of tax structure we have on Luxury Sedans, it is going to end up costing more than 20 Lakhs - which I think is really not worth it at all. As for me, I will be happy seeing them on Indian roads.
