Passat → Passat (disambiguation) – Passat should redirect to Volkswagen Passat per WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT. The car receives significantly more |Passat|Raymond_Passat|Passat_(ship)|List_of_Nunataks page views than other topics named "Passat" in the English language, and is the most prevalent among English-language search results.

 * Oppose the encyclopaedic meaning of passat is passat, the trade wind: "concerning the origin of the trade winds, the equatorial passat, and the monsoon. " "Dry wind blowing from the Karo Plateau down to the plains of northeast Sumatra, a passat wind warmed by the foehn" In ictu oculi (talk) 13:28, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Support last I checked, the VW Passat was covered by this particular encyclopedia. And apparently, it is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of "passat". I'll also note that "passat" is not listed as an English word by Oxford or even Wiktionary. Dohn joe (talk) 17:49, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Support as per Dohn joe as is probably PRIMARYREDIRECT, but there is really no other English language target for passat that is remotely the target. Tiggerjay (talk) 23:05, 12 December 2016 (UTC)
