Is it worth waiting for the all-new VW Passat? A Pros & Cons Analysis

Is it worth waiting for the all-new VW Passat? A Pros & Cons Analysis

MANILA: October 21st is a red-marked date on the Philippines auto calendar. Red is a danger reflecting colour but is also synonymous to hot- beauties. And so is the case with the soon to be the launched Passat, that'll come all beautified from all the way across the globe. But, the question is, is it really worth the wait, and is it apt to wait seven more days before you decide on your next purchase?

A week seems fine. Right, coz buying a car is nowhere close to easy, plus it involves big bugs. But the real question is, will it be beneficial or would be a pure waste of time. Let's scrutinize every bit of Passat and find out the real deal.

A Pros & Cons analysis would best fit this situation, yes the same boring P & C regime that we thought was useless back in our school days. Below we have mentioned four major points that everyone would consider before buying a four wheel traveling machine.

1. Brand Image

+Pros = Talking about Volkswagen Passat, the car won 2015 Car of the Year award. Is it a great deal? Indeed, it is. -Cons = VW Diesel Scandal that made headlines around the globe. Throwing VW's image in a dark, deep pit

2. Price

+Pros = Though, it carries a heavy price tag, but every inch of Passat from its interiors to exteriors plus its safety justifies the same and that too with ease. -Cons = It'll be a burden, and will bother you constantly with its heavy maintenance and parts costs.

3. Convenience

+Pros = Passat is a true Driver's car. It offers most pleasing driver's cabin and also has one of the most powerful engine configuration. -Cons = Apart from the driver, rest all will suffer. No offensive but the passengers seats are a bit rigid and lacks comfort.

4. Traffic Rejoice

+Pros = VW is an artist, and Passat is its wonderful creation. Go out on busy Metro Manila roads, and see how you and your car becomes a major head turner. -Cons = Your happiness will soon end when this mid-size sedan will struggle to overcome the traffic monster.
