The results for Cars.com’s Midsize Sedan Challenge are in and both car experts and everyday shoppers have spoken: the 2016 Volkswagen Passat is the best midsize sedan on the road this year. To be eligible for the challenge, vehicles had to have an MSRP under $28,000, an EPA estimated mpg of at least 28 mpg, and an automatic transmission. Qualifying vehicles were evaluated based on handling, overall ride, acceleration, braking, cargo space, technology, and features. These categories were rated by expert judges and a couple shopping for a new sedan on a road course that stretched 220 miles. Only ten vehicles made the list, with the Passat coming out on top. “The Passat came in first place with both our expert judges and in-market shoppers,” said Patrick Olsen, Cars.com’s editor-in-chief. “This midsize sedan is a refreshed version of the Passat that won Cars.com’s Best of 2012 award; it’s still tremendously roomy and for 2016 got a ton of tech upgrades like Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration. In addition to the roominess, tech and safety, the standout feature of the Passat is its driving ability. Everyone who drove it unanimously agreed, the Passat is plain old fun to drive.” Schedule your test drive in the 2016 Volkswagen Passat today!

The Volkswagen Group has recently announced that it plans to sell one million electric vehicles by 2025. This announcement is in response to the CO2 regulations that will be instituted globally in the upcoming years. In order to achieve this lofty goal, the brands under Volkswagen will be launching nearly 20 electric or hybrid vehicles by 2020. One of the models we’ve heard about so far is the updated e-Golf, which is due to arrive by the end of the year. We’ve also heard rumors about an all-electric vehicle, and another Prius-like model called the XL3 that is rumored to debut in 2018, although nothing has been confirmed just yet. What we do know, however, is that VW engineers are working diligently to develop the MEB, a modular platform that can support a wide range of battery-electric vehicles. This is the platform that supported the Budd-e concept at the CES show earlier this year. "Volkswagen to Sell 1M Electrified Vehicles by 2025." LeftLane News RSS. N.p., n.d.
