2013 Volkswagen Passat Review:
"The 2013 Volkswagen Passat stands out as a solid, well-rounded sedan that offers a comfortable driving experience, a spacious interior, and a refined European design. While the car is largely aimed at the American market, its German engineering roots are evident in its polished handling, composed ride quality, and attention to detail. With the 2013 model, Volkswagen managed to combine practicality with sophistication, providing an enjoyable driving experience while addressing the needs of families and commuters alike.
The exterior of the Passat is understated yet elegant, with clean lines and a subtle presence that doesn’t try too hard to impress but instead focuses on refined simplicity. It’s slightly larger than its predecessor, giving it a more spacious feel, particularly in the rear seat area, which is one of the Passat's standout features. The roomy back seat offers plenty of legroom and headroom, making the Passat an ideal choice for families or anyone who needs extra space for passengers. The trunk is also generously sized, adding to the overall practicality of the vehicle.
Inside, the 2013 Passat boasts a cabin that’s clean and uncluttered, with high-quality materials used throughout. The fit and finish are solid, and while the interior isn’t as luxurious as some competitors in the midsize sedan category, it offers a comfortable and pleasant environment. The layout of the dashboard and controls is simple, and the infotainment system is intuitive, ensuring that drivers can easily interact with their audio, navigation, and other features while on the road.
Performance-wise, the Passat offers a choice of two engines. The base 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine provides adequate power for daily driving, but the real appeal lies in the available 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine. This diesel option delivers impressive fuel efficiency and a satisfying torque-rich performance, making it an excellent choice for those looking to balance power with savings at the pump. The handling is precise, with the Passat offering a smooth, comfortable ride. It isn’t particularly sporty, but it provides a stable and quiet ride on highways, with enough agility for city driving.
In terms of safety, the 2013 Passat performs well in crash tests, receiving high marks from both the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Standard safety features include front and side airbags, antilock brakes, stability control, and traction control, all of which contribute to a reassuring sense of security behind the wheel.
The 2013 Volkswagen Passat is equipped with a solid suite of technology and features, ensuring that drivers remain connected and comfortable. The infotainment system, while not as advanced as some newer systems, offers Bluetooth connectivity and available satellite radio, keeping occupants entertained during their drives. For those looking for a more eco-conscious option, the Passat also offers a hybrid model, which brings impressive fuel economy without sacrificing too much in the way of performance or practicality.
The 2013 Volkswagen Passat SE PZEV trim adds a higher level of equipment and comfort, making it a great option for those who want more than just the basics without stepping up to the highest trim levels."

RECALL NOTICE
What is a recall:
A safety recall involving a motor vehicle or an item of motor vehicle equipment can be independently conducted by a manufacturer or ordered by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). In either case, the manufacturer must file a public report describing the safety-related defect or noncompliance with a Federal motor vehicle safety standard, the involved vehicle/equipment population, the major events that resulted in the recall determination, a description of the remedy, and a schedule for the recall. NHTSA monitors each safety recall to ensure the manufacturers provide owners safe, free, and effective remedies according to the Safety Act and Federal regulations. Manufacturers are obligated to attempt to notify owners of recalled products. For vehicles, that means manufacturers merge their own records of vehicle purchasers with current state vehicle registration information. For equipment, where state registration records do not exist, manufacturers are obligated to notify their distribution chain and known purchasers of the recalled equipment. However, even if you do not receive a notification, if your vehicle, child restraint, or other item of equipment is involved in a safety recall, the manufacturer is obligated to provide a free remedy.
