Work on the next-generation Volkswagen Passat continues and prototypes of the vehicle are now back at the Nurburgring for new high-speed evaluations. We spied different trial vehicles undergoing tests at the track back in the fall of 2022 and it seems that the German automaker wants to make some final adjustments before the wagon is ready to be launched on the market.
If you haven’t heard already, the new Passat is going to be sold exclusively as a station wagon. The ID.7 now acts as a replacement for the Passat sedan and the B9 generation of the D-segment model will be distributed around Europe only in a long-roof version. As a reminder, the Passat was discontinued in the United States after the 2022 model year and there are no signs its successor would arrive stateside.
