The B6 Passat was heavily facelifted by Klaus Bischoff and Walter de Silva, and was unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in September 2010 and although designated "B7" the car is not an all-new model.
The facelift resulted in every external body panel being changed, except for the roof and glasshouse, with the most prominent change being to the grille and headights, which mirror the style first shown on the Mk3 Scirocco. The height and width dimensions are unchanged from the B6 Passat, while length increases by 4 mm. New features include a fatigue detections system and an automatic “city emergency braking” system.
It should arrive at dealerships in mid-November 2010. The interior featured minor detail changes from the B6, although the basic dashboard design remain unchanged. A long-wheelbase version of the Passat will be built in China by FAW-VW in 2011.
The Passat falls during the sedan/saloon market segment, and was critical to Volkswagen on its introduction in 1973, as the sales of the aging Beetle were declining, and larger air-cooled rear-engined models similar to the Volkswagen Type 3 and 411 and 412 based on older technology were also failing to consider hold in the market.
Following a Volkswagen Group's acquisition of Audi in 1964, Volkswagen used new engineering expertise to develop a modern front-wheel drive car with a water-cooled engine, and thus the Passat and Golf (these being introduced in 1974) were the first of a new generation of Volkswagen cars. The first Passat originated partly with the Audi 80/Fox and, until 2005, the 2shared a brief history.
