Volkswagen Passat B9 spy photos

Volkswagen has announced the ninth generation Passat B9 for 2023, and now spy photos of this car have appeared. It all started back in 1973 when Giorgetto Giugiaro designed the first Volkswagen Passat model. Since then, eight generations have been produced and marketed as Dasher, Santana, Quantum, Magotan, Corsar and Carat.

In spy photos, it can be noticed that the new generation Passat B9, in its appearance, is similar to the Alltrack model. It will be built on the MQB platform and will only be offered as a caravan.

When it comes to powertrain, the ninth generation will be offered in petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid versions. The plug-in hybrid will be powered by a combination of a 1.5-liter four-cylinder turbo gasoline engine with 150 hp (110 kW) and 184 lb-ft (250 Nm) and a 2.0-liter turbo gasoline engine with 187 hp (140 kW) and 236 lb-ft (320 Nm) of torque. There will also be diesel engines with a range of 122 to 250 hp (90 – 184 kW).

Earlier, Volkswagen announced that it would no longer produce its popular Passat sedan, which it stopped offering on its website.
