It outstrips all Volkswagen cars in accelerating from 0 to 100 kmph. Its power transmission is handled by direct shift gear box and 4-wheel four motion drive. The performance enhancement is the contribution of 25mm sports suspension system.

Design of the new Passat R36 was conceived by the giant automaker’s specialist vehicles division the “Volkswagen Individual”. Specific features like the front bumper with grille in a matte chrome finish, and the dual fins of the upper radiator grille make the new Passat R36 the most dynamic model. Newly designed 18-inch “Omanyt” alloy wheels, body coloured wheel arch extensions and the signature blue painted brake callipers are some of the few key features added into the design.

Volkswagen added special touches to the interior equipment. The pedals are given a stainless steel finish. Passat R36 will be equipped with sport seating system with electric 12-way adjustment. Rear seats are provided with a sport seating system which includes seat heating.
