2012 Volkswagen Passat SEL TDI Start Up, Engine, and In Depth Tour

In this video I give a full in depth tour of the all new 2012 Volkswagen Passat SEL TDI. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

I feel like this car would look better with some projector xenon headlamps!

I'm really impressed as an european how the Americans accepted to "downsize" their lifestyle importing diesel cars, thinking for e.g. at the Fiat 500 1.3 mJet... Starting think about consumption and so on... Quiet impressive... Btw was a great review... Great job! Greetings from Italy

@Chris060889 That's really funny, because I wish they had the Euro Passat here in the US :)

I still don't get why US market doesn't get 2.0 170hp TDI?

Thanks for the review... would love to have the "US-Passat" in Germany as well... it's bigger than the normal European Passat.... but some people claim it would be too big for roads in the city for example -.- I can't understand them .... If they can't handle a bigger car, they simply should buy a smaller one -.-

I love this new VW Passat! The front headlights remind me of the 08-12 Honda Accord headlights.

Also I think it's cool how Volkswagen gives u the choice of push button start and also manually starting the car with an actual key. Most of these auto companies doesn't give u that option.

For example, a 2010 Nissan Altima only has the push button. Is there a way to manually start the car if it were to stop working??? Does anybody know?

VW Passat was most beautiful car have i ever seen.Sorry for my english.

It's got a nicely finished and roomy interior and very nice convenience features such as smart key access with remote engine start, electric trunk lid opening, fully automatic electric windows and dual zone climate control. It's got a good safety rating as well and the choice of a diesel, instead of an useless hybrid version. I really like it. The Passat may not be the most reliable midsize car, but sure is the nicest.
