    Hi, Autogefühl team. I don't know if you guys can make this happen, but im gonna ask any way. When you guys are showing the interior, could you put the car in a dark garage or film a small portion of the interior shot at night - to show how the interior dials and knobs light up, or don't light up, at night. Please also show reading lights and any lights along the door seals.Also please show how the exterior lights "behave". This would be greatly appreciated. I love your in-depth reviews, otherwise. Keep up the great work!!!

    Thanks Thomas +Autogefühl after this review i decided to go for a Passat Alltrack, but with the analog instruments. I do think that the digital is beautiful but the price difference is not worth it in my opinion! I received last week, quite happy with it, and perfect for the conditions we have here! Again thanks Thomas always the best review!

    Audi Allroad move aside, Passat Alltrack has arrived. Very striking with big wheels and higher ground clearance. Also this car isn't for offroad, but fit it with good winter tires, and it's unstoppable on winter roads...5/5

    Ich gucke diesen Channel schon seit einiger Zeit und ein Abo gab es natürlich auch sofort! Die Reviews sind wirklich sehr gut! Mir ist auch aufgefallen, dass sich nicht nur die Autos verändern, sondern auch die Moderatoren. Gerade bei Ihnen Herr Majchrzak war die Aussprache der englischen Sätze und das Auftreten als Person am Anfang sehr steif. Sie wirken mit der Zeit sicherer und lockerer und das ist echt klasse!
    Vielen Dank für die Reviews und weiter so!!!

    I've always loved the Passat estate and this Alltrack version looks the business ! As with all manufacturers it's always the add on items that push the price up which is a shame. The Transformer like wheels are really smart in my opinion also. The other item I liked is the sliding platform in the boot, I think this will be good especially for people who have restrictions due to disabilities or health issues depending on how much weight it can support. Thank you again for a really good review and I hope you enjoyed your seat massage! Paul.

    Really nice review! I have a Passat saloon B8 and there are some issues with quality that my family and I found out. For example: the armrest, that we were regulating it and a plastic came off and we saw the mechanism that were in it. Very dissapointing . Also the rear seats, which if you pass the arm beneath it you could touch the inside of the seats. You talked about the insulation, and with the diesel engine in town I think its quite loud. But at the motorway its quiet, I agree with you. Congratulations!

    Great review Thomas, I'm an interior/features addict myself, its good that finally there's a reviewer that goes through ALL the little features(integrated tow bar! that's cool) +Pros and Cons, also a reviewer not afraid to comparing similar cars like the Skoda superb in this case, thank you so much, helps me as i'm looking at my next car. subscribed...
    One thing though, I've read that there is a heads up display for this car? is this an option that you didn't have in your review?
    Keep up the great work!

    Great detailed review as always.
    I ordered a black Alltrack 190 tdi in july without having seen much more than the broschure pictures, so its great to have you guys filming all the details for me now ;)
    Car looks good in reality, but the 18in Kalamata rims looks much much darker in the broschure/konfigurator.
    Extra plus for not showing a habanero orange one like everyone else!
    Intresting to hear that the chassi feels very close to the std passat. I would maybe have liked a softer, super comfortable chassi instead with the higher suspension. Anti-sportfahrwerk bitte !

    Very good review Thomas.
    I am a big fan of the new B8 platform. I personally don't like the standard alloy rims.
    I would go for a more prominent solid look, a minimum of 20 inch allows with the rears a bit broader then the front.
    It will also be lovely to review the cockpit/cabin in low light so we can see the ambient lighting etc.
    All in all, lovely car and lovely review.
    VW never fails to impress. VAG for Life!

    Thomas - Terrific review. Thanks for reviewing a 'gas' engine model versus diesel - here in the States diesel engines are harder to find than an honest politician. :) This VW Passat Wagon seems to be a great car based on your review. Really don't understand the VW marketing guys for not importing it over here. Same with the Skoda Brand - a car we never heard of until watching your reviews. All we have is the VW Bug and a few other 'non-memorable' VW models. Anyhow - keep the great reviews coming! Nicholas

    I look forward to our next lesson & top notch detailed review from you.
    Overall look of this Passat is great in my view. A tad pricey however!
    The mix of manual & electric seat adjustments is a VW thing (?). My son recently bought a nice 2012 VW Golf and it has the same arrangement with the seats. Fabric interior, you'll be happy to know 😀
    Btw, the fake exhaust exit openings on the Passat are very bizarre. WTF?!?

    Great review, great car.
    I have a previous generation 2.0 tsi 210 hp passat variant and I have an average around 8 - 8.5 l ... and that is with manual transmission. So 7 liters with auto + 4 wheel drive is a nice improvement. I cant get below 7.5 no matter what I do...

    I extensively tried one in Iceland for 5 days, with much, much off-roading (on heavy snow tires), I have to say I was very positively surprised. It performed beautifully in deep snow and on ice, and was very confortable on crappy roads. I own a 17 Q7, and it made me question why paying 30K more (Q7 is obviously a better car, but not 30k euros better).

  • @J.Hedlund
    @J.Hedlund Před 7 lety +3

    Awesome review with all those details, thank you! :) I'm thinking about getting the Alltrack diesel 190hp DSG, do you know the real average consumption for it? Or maybe someone here who drives it daily can tell me? :) Keep up the good work Thomas!

    • @nicolaieggert4787
      @nicolaieggert4787 Před 7 lety

      Check out +deadkempers reply below. It wasn't there when you posted, but he states 48 MPG for what I'm assuming is mostly freeway. :) Your consumption varies greatly depending on which road type you do the majority of driving on; city is the worst, highway speed will usually also reduce the overall MPG (over 90 km/h / 55 MPH) and country road driving (70-90 km/h) is typically where you get the best consumption, which can be significantly better. So it's a bit hard to compare to +deadkempers, but atleast it's a starting point for you :)

    Very convincing car, the new Passat. Judging from your review, it has the qualities to back up the price and set itself way above the competition. It would be very interesting to see how the new Renault Talisman stacks up to VW. Seems like the French have really tried to make a worthy competitor to the Passat. In my opinion the estate version of the Talisman is especially good looking.

    What a sharp looking, high tech Euro style Passat. Very premium. Especially in the All Track option. Such a shame that VW decided to run with a very different Passat in the States. Almost embarrassing just how bad and outdated the U.S. Passat is by comparison. Considering what might have / should have been. Thank God VW didn't make a similar mistake with the MK7 Golf and its many variations.

    did you ever drive the 280ps version? how is it compared to the 240ps diesel?

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  Před 8 lety +1

      +Lukas Praml Both very powerful engines. The petrol one is more explosive, the Diesel more saving... and only explosive after the turbo sets in ... thats the easiest way you can describe.

    • @LukasPraml
      @LukasPraml Před 8 lety

      do you think the 280 will ever appear in the alltrack? of course i drive 98% of alle time on the autobahn and landstrasse - so allttrack with 240 oder highline with 280 - what would be your choice? (40k km per year, daily commute...)

    A great review as ever. But, why oh why the fake exhaust?! Did you notice how make things are now "fake" the exhaust tips, the crome etc. Can we make the idustry sell us real stuff if even not so nicely design. What is your point on this Thomas?

    Thomas please review the Subaru Outback! We're thinking of getting one and the Alltrack is the only other alternate option. In New Zealand to option up the Alltrack to meet (if possible) the spec of the Outback these options must be added:
    - Driver's knee airbag, side airbags & seat belt tensioner in rear (Naughty VW!! Should be standard.) +$750
    - Keyless Access + Electric tailgate +$1,500
    - Driver Assist package +2,500 - All petrol Outback models in NZ have Eyesight
    - ergoComfort 14 way seats with massage +$2,500. Stock they come with this stupid semi-electric seats - electric backrest & lumbar but manual everything else, for passenger side lumbar is manual too.
    - Panoramic sunroof +$2,500
    We'll skip the sunroof and we know we are getting the airbags for free if we finance through them. Opinion?

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  Před 8 lety

      +Zachary Ong hey Zach! Hmm... did you see out Subaru Levorg review? Are Levorg and Outback quite similar or totally different? czcams.com/video/c4orHfTNOxA/video.html
      What is the total price difference for Passat vs Outback for you?

    • @unintentionallyfire
      @unintentionallyfire Před 8 lety

      +Autogefühl the price difference is around $4,500 in reality. And the Levorg is very different - I think the only thing they share is an AWD system and then the infotainment system.

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  Před 8 lety

      +Zachary Ong I see. Cant get the Outback very fast as our schedule is already packed. Imho, the Passat especially as the Alltrack version is really kick-ass, I think it is very hard to beat the overall driving experience

    • @unintentionallyfire
      @unintentionallyfire Před 8 lety

      We have only a few months to go (paying off car) before we go out and get one, so do you think you could do one in the first half of the year? I really like the whole package the Outback gives and this looks to give the same package. Could I email you more about the cars and the pros and cons I have for them? Thanks so much for your videos!

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  Před 8 lety

      +Zachary Ong Sure feel free. Wasnt part of the plan to order an Outback quite soon, but for you, I ll try to do it :) Keeping you updated.

  • @gbriank1
    @gbriank1 Před 8 lety

    This would see in America. Look at the Outback sales numbers!
    I think with a few exterior colors, only one interior color (charcoal grey) fabric seats with 12 way power seats and the 2.0 TSI engine. If available, I'd buy this over the GTI. It is very easy to line with every day, lots of rear seat room and cargo space.

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  Před 8 lety

      +gbriank1 You really think so? Volkswagen has the strategy not to put the wagons to the US ... everyone always says US ppl wouldnt buy station wagons. Not so sure about that if they arent offered. I also think this one would sell well in the US. However, they havent even introduced the B8 Passat so that step has to come first. They really need to hurry with the US market.

    • @gbriank1
      @gbriank1 Před 8 lety

      +Autogefühl I think so. Just as long as it isn't portrayed as a wagon and an on-road vehicle. Subaru has this down to an art. The interiors are utilitarian but with a high quality look. They are shown doing off-road things in commercials. VW could portray the B8 as more upscale but still holding to it's off-road roots, very much like the XC70 Cross Country Volvo.
      I agree with the need of haste. VW is losing market share. The American Passat and Jetta aren't selling as well as they were. These two cars are their volume sellers with profit to match, but need some updates to make them stand out from the Japanese. Rather than try to make their cars more Japanese like, they need to focus on them driving more like a traditional German car. Reliability needs to come up as well.

    Thomas, I cannot understand why you do not like the electric park brake (handbrake).
    On my Mk 7 Golf, I never have to apply the handbrake or ever have to take it off, because it is all done qutomatically.
    You brake and the handbrake (and hill hold assist) is applied. You accelerate and the handbrake is taken off automatically.
    I believe that it is the best handbrake on the market.
    I could never go back to the original (stone age) handbrake.
    : )

    • @autogefuehl

    Don't really like it a compared to a Subaru Outback, mainly coz off road is a major consideration for me. I love the design though, especially the front, and that interior space + design is slaying.

    • @KernelOkey
      @KernelOkey Před 8 lety

      If you drive alot offroad/on bad roads Outback is def a better choise. But in normal conditions Alltrack is the way to go. I really liked the Outback, but didn't enjoy the gearbox/engine

    • @RadBunny2269
      @RadBunny2269 Před 8 lety

      +RedEyeMS3 yeah, I'm beginning to see that. Other option is to get both a town car for those days I'm at home, and an off roader as I really do love a low sitting town vehicle.

  • @deadkemper
    @deadkemper Před 5 lety +1

    Update: i drive many varied miles a year ( 30k nearly ) and i kept my alltrack 190dsg for about a year:
    good things: utterly classy car, had many admiring views : great mpg 55 average : very practical : reliable , no issues at all: very rare in the UK hardly anyone has one : packed full of spec , although mine had 10k of extras:
    Bad points: Just one, which was annoying, the steering wheel is very uncomfortable on long journeys as it's almost pointed, so you end up adjusting your driving position to get into a half comfy driving position.. The reason why i sold it, to be honest, hard to drive with your pinky .
    It's quite slow for 190hp , I guess the 4wd weighs it down.

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  Před 8 lety +1

      Not sure what this has to do with a VW Passat but I'll bite.
      Canada has very strict gun control and our constitution recognizes group rights and individual rights. (we don't have the curse of a 2nd amendment). Allowing access to guns puts our whole society at risk. As such, we give priority to society's right to safety over the right of individuals to own guns. Something Americans can't quite comprehend. Besides, most people don't care to own a gun here in Canada. We'd rather put our money into accessible schooling and public health system.
      Clearly you need a lesson in political geography and basic constitutional law.

    • @Cm22c
      @Cm22c Před 8 lety +1

      +kevin n
      That's nice, but it's not as if the US spends more on guns than they do healthcare or schooling, they spend quite a bit of tax dollars on healthcare and schooling, far more than they do on guns. In fact, nearly $2.5 trillion USD last year, which is more than the entire 2013 Canadian GDP. Mind you, that is on top of private sector spending. Also, Canada is one of the 15 nations with the most guns per capita with there being one gun for every three people in Canada. So you're right, you and most other Canadians don't care about guns, but one of your neighbours to your left or right cares more than you might know.
