Talk:Volkswagen Passat Variant
This article can be merged with VW Passat Lingyu[edit]
The Volkswagen Passat Variant is actually a facelifted Volkswagen Passat Lingyu, just like what Passat B7 is to Passat B6. (See Volkswagen Passat (B6)) 
Done
The Passat Variant was still based on Volkswagen PQ35 Platform[1]; and it was equipped with 1.8T EA113, 2.0L I4 and 2.8L V6 engine, same as VW Passat Lingyu and Škoda Superb B5.
In China, the Volkswagen Passat B6 (ie Magotan) is produced exclusively by FAW-VW[2] . Therefore, Shanghai VW had to keep VW Passat B5 until 2011, before it imported Volkswagen Passat NMS.
If anything I think both articles should be placed in the B6 and B7 sections of Volkswagen Passat. --24.52.209.105 (talk) 17:55, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

...让领驭疲态尽显的，则是来自同门体系内的迈腾。来自一汽大众的迈腾在更新的PQ46平台上生产，而且采用了大众全新的TSI直喷引擎与DSG双离合变速器，这让迈腾具备了非常深厚的技术功底。值得一提的是近期上市的一汽大众CC，无论其惊艳的外形还是让人眼花缭乱的技术，都让还在PQ35平台的帕萨特·新领驭相形见绌。可以说，同门体系内部的较量，让领驭受到了一定程度的冲击。

根据大众汽车集团在华两个合资企业重新分工的原则，新一代的帕萨特Ｂ６将在一汽大众生产，此前一直在国内生产帕萨特的上海大众则与全新车型失之交臂。
