A new Passat is coming, but the U.S. is tipped to receive an electric alternative.
It's due out in 2023 and will be offered exclusively in wagon form, which VW refers to as a Variant.
Don't look for the new Passat to reach the U.S. It wouldn't reach these shores even if it had a sedan option. That's because the Passat sold in the U.S.,, uses a separate, less-expensive platform to Passats sold in the rest of the world. The global Passat uses Volkswagen Group's MQB platform, and the redesigned model will use an updated version of this platform. The global Passat's corporate twin, the Skoda Superb, is also due to be redesigned shortly on the updated MQB platform. However, it will be available in both sedan and wagon body styles.You might be wondering why no sedan will be offered for the Passat.
