With 3.2 litres under the bonnet, four-wheel drive and six-speed automatic transmission, this Passat makes an awesome towcar, and there weren’t many marks separating it from the class winner.
I marked it down for the fierceness with which the power comes on, but the car showed faultless stability and I loved the electronic, push-button parking brake that releases itself as you squeeze the accelerator; but one judge had problems with it not disengaging properly.
