► 2013 VW Passat CC [driving scenes]

When the Volkswagen CC made its debut four years ago, it was the first four-door coupé in the 30,000 to 40,000 euro class. From this niche, a new segment quickly developed -- to date, nearly 270,000 people around the globe have chosen the sedan with the stylish lines of a sports car. They are car drivers who love the charm of a coupé but also value space for at least 4 persons and 4 doors. Now, Volkswagen is presenting a technically and visually updated version of the popular business vehicle.
With new front and rear styling, the new perfected Volkswagen CC makes an even bolder move towards the automotive luxury class. Its extended range of standard features has become more exclusive as well; they now include new bi-xenon headlights, static cornering lights and a new LED tail light design. Also standard: fatigue detection, RCD 310 radio-CD system, stainless steel door sill plates and safety head restraints with additional longitudinal adjustment (front seats).
New assistance systems are making their way into the CC as well. They include optional technologies such as Side Assist Plus with integrated Lane Assist (warns of vehicles in blind spots and assists driver in avoiding an accident by steering intervention), Dynamic Light Assist (automatic main beam control) that is new in the Volkswagen CC and a camera- based traffic sign detection system. Meanwhile, comfort is optimised by the 'climate seat' with integrated massage function.
The Volkswagen CC will be powered by innovative petrol and diesel direct-injection engines; all of the diesels (TDI) are equipped with a Stop/Start system and battery regeneration mode (for recovering braking energy) as standard. All petrol engines also have battery regeneration functionality. The TDI engines output 103 kW / 140 PS and 125 kW / 170 PS. The petrol engines of the European CC versions develop a sporty 118 kW / 160 PS, 155 kW / 210 PS and 220 kW / 300 PS of power. In the USA, the Volkswagen will once again launch with petrol engines that output 147 kW / 200 PS (TSI) and 206 kW / 280 PS (FSI). All engines go to work with excellent efficiency. A prime example is the 140 PS TDI. Together with a manual six-speed gearbox, its combined fuel consumption is just 4.7 l/100 km (equivalent to 125 g/km CO 2).
The new Volkswagen CC will be revealed to the public in a world premiere at the Los Angeles Auto Show (November 18 to 27). The market launch phase begins shortly thereafter. Volkswagen will first offer the new CC in Germany in February 2012, then in stages across Europe, America, Russia, China (local version starting in 2013) and all other sales regions relevant to this vehicle class.

I thought the whole thing with the CC was to differentiate it from the rest of Passat range?

The last model did that, this just looks like another bigger Passat!

hmm...it does look less aerodynamic for a 4-door-coupe cause of the front...but hey the CLS does too. They've improved the rear this time, i really like it.

Overall, the car looks less sporty and more to a luxury style...looks like a smaller Phaeton. Still i bet it'll still be a reliable and stylish car.

@nomainreason it looks good on some models... the new touareg, the new passat's not too bad, the golf and the scirocco is awesome looking. The Jetta has definitely suffered offer the years, but it is very inexpensive these days. I agree on this though the old cc did look better. Especially in the front end. The back actually looks okay on this new one.

compared to last version, this CC sucks. VW didn't find out from other automakers that in order to sell cars and get money, you have to build ugly cars, then a bit prettier ones.. and so on...

I guess VW has enough money... instead of getting a proper designer.. they got a ruler. the whole VW line looks the same. I can't tell the difference between a polo/golf or a jetta/passat/phaeton even the tiguan/touareg look the same.
