Volkswagen‘s all new Passat has been revealed in a rendering obtained by Auto Express, one the allegedly came from a German dealer brochure. The new car clearly adopts the “corporate face” that Volkswagen is instituting, similar to the front fascias of both the new Polo, Golf and Touran.

Auto Express reports that motivation will come from 1.4L and 1.8L direct injection turbo units, as well as a pair of diesels. At some point, a 270-horsepower Passat R is expected to join the range, ostensibly with all-wheel drive. Of course, the new Passat won’t make it over here, as Volkswagen is developing an all new sedan, built for North American tastes, as a replace the outgoing Passat.
