Volkswagen wasn't kidding around when it said the new Passat would debut in late August as a new teaser announces the world premiere is scheduled for the very last day of the month. Big changes are afoot for the midsize car since VW is dropping the sedan, preferring instead to focus solely on the wagon known as Variant in the Wolfsburg dialect. It won't be built at home in Germany anymore as production is moving to Bratislava, Slovakia.
