Volkswagen revealed the Passat CC four-door coupe in January at the Detroit Auto Show. Although it is based on the Passat, the German manufacturer took the decision to rename the vehicle from the Passat CC to the CC.
This decision was taken in order to separate the CC from the Passat and to create a new class, as Mercedes did with the CLS four-door coupe. Set to be launched in early 2009, the new Volkswagen CC will be powered by a 2.0 liter turbo diesel engine capable of delivering 200 hp and a 3.6 liter V6 petrol engine which produces 300 hp.

And yet the direct-injection turbo engine in the Passat, specifically designed to run on natural gas, consumes no more than 5.2 kilograms of gas per 100 kilometres. The Passat and the Passat Estate TSI EcoFuel are due to be launched on the market around year-end.
