Drivers wanted'u^f 2001 Volkswagen Passat Volkswagen Passat only looks expensive L ooking remarkably like the Audi A6 which is a good thing - the Passat sedan/wagon is a tidy piece of work. The basic architecture is extremely rigid and the galva nized steel body is so rustresistant that VW offers an 11-year corrosion warranty (as it does with all its cars). The slippery silhouette of the Passat produces an extralow drag coefficient of 0.27. A 2.8-litre, 190-horsepow er 30-valve DOHC V6 is. standard on the top-of-theline GLX. Meanwhile, base Passat power continues to be a 1.8litre four-cylinder engine that features a unique five-valveper-cylinder head design and a turbocharger and intercool er to help generate 150 horse power. Ordering the GLS or GLX sedan or wagon allows you to select VW 's optional all wheel drive system (referred to as 4MOTION in VW speak) as part of the package. Along with the V6, allwheel-drive Passats are linked to a Porsche-designed five-speed Tiptronic automat ic transmission.
