Volkswagen is a very reputed company which gives out a car as required by a common man to a millionaire. It has a good quality of market segmentation. After flooding the market with such lovely engineered cars, Volkswagen has added another feather to its cap by launching the new “PASSAT” with the BlueMotion technology in India. The European car maker launched this car on Tuesday at an ex-showroom price between Rs 20.80 to Rs. 25.65 lakh.

The all new Passat will be available in diesel engine also. Also the people can choose between manual and automatic transmission. The booking for this fabulous driving machine will start from Wednesday and the car will be delivered by the end of this month.
