  • NRW Volkswagen Passat CC With Enhanced Power Output

    NRW-Volkswagen-Passat-CC-THUMBThe latest project by FolienCenter-NRW is this Volkswagen Passat CC which has been wrapped with high-grade Marrakech brown-matt taken from the Hexis foil program. However, they have made a contrast with the warm brown colour shade and the roof, external rear-view mirrors and the radiator grill which were covered in glossy black.

    In addition, there is also a three-dimensional “R” relief which is embossed on the broad C-column in the wrapping dress. It is naturally reflected in the factory-installed R-line bodywork package of the luxurious flagship.

    The specialists have also equipped this Volkswagen with new set of shoes. To make it even more luxurious they have included Bentley Mulliner rims with matt-black stars which perfectly match the 9×20-inch Nobel wheels. The latter in addition were applied with Nankang NS-II tyres of the dimension 225/30R20.

    Furthermore, the CC was given a lowering DDC coilover kit which ensures that the wheel-tyre combination is completely fitted in the wheel houses. An additional boost in the engine was delivered by SKN. The professionals there managed to increase the output of the 2.0 litre TDI engine from 170 hp (125 kW) to about 210 hp (155 kW) via “stage 1” engine map optimization.

    This enhancement also resulted in increase of maximum torque which now is more than 400 Nm (295 lb-ft) and thus leading to a powerful thrust whenever the accelerator is pressed.

    At last, FolienCenter-NRW also put some efforts on the interior of the Passat CC. For instance the company equipped the car with aluminium surface of the R-line package on the dashboard, centre console and door linings wrapped in the colour of the car, R-line sports steering wheel which is flattened below and R-line aluminium pedal systems.

  • 2012 Volkswagen Passat CC

    The Passat CC was extremely successful vehicle. It featured a unique style both inside and outside at decent price and some of the clients, who wanted Mercedes-Benz CLS went to get Passat CC, because it looked rather the same.

    Now however, there is a new version of the 4-door coupe – 2012 Passat CC, which will be officially unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 16.

    The new highlights are modified radiator grille, new bi-xenon headlights and topped with a reprofiled bonnet. The bumper is different, too, with a new extra air intake, and silver-coloured winglets that frame the fog lights.

    At the rear, the car is completely redesigned, with more emphasis on horizontal lines and a reworking of the characteristic chrome strip. There are new taillights with LEDs and LED numberplate lights.

    An interesting thing is that the “Passat” has been dropped from the name. Rather radical idea, but we like it, because this is completely different car.

    The standard equipment list is huge, but some of the safety features include driver alert system and front head restraints with four-way adjustment. A lot of option extras are now available – High Beam Assist, Side Assist, ane Assist and adaptive cruise control with City Emergency Braking function; front climate seats with massage function; and an electrically deployed towbar.

    The engine range includes 1.8 liter TSI with 160PS and 2.0 litre TSI with 210PS. The diesel range includes 2.0 liter engine with either 140 or 170 PS.  All models with 170 PS or more also now get a standard XDS differential, an electronic cross-axle traction control system for improved traction and handling.

    The CC will make its world debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show before going on sale in the US in early 2012.
