There is a new Plug-in Hybrid version of the Passat coming up.
But, as you can see, this is not "our" Passat. It is the more modern all new 2015 European version.
It is powered by a small 1.4 Liter engine with an electric motor for a total of 218HP.
Which is really good. As the same 1.4 Liter/Electric combo in the Jetta Hybrid , with "only" 170HP, already feels really quick.
And, you get a pure electric range of about 31 miles. Or about 10 more than a similar For Fusion.
