Car Specifications & Information

INFO:
world`s number 1 vw tuner, abt sportsline, has turned their sites onto one of the newst vw models, the passat cc. following the four-door coupe design pioneered by the mercedes cls-class, the passat cc, which stands for “comfort coupe,” doesn`t necessarily have to go down the same road for elegance and luxury buyers. hans-jürgen abt. the managing director of abt sportsline states, “but who says that a comfort coupé mustn’t be sporty?”

as a result, the kempten-based tuning firm offers off-the-shelf suspension springs and abt power packages for the 1.8 tsi`s standard 160hp (118kw) bumped up to 200hp (147kw). the 2.0 tsi enjoys similar treatment up to 240hp (177kw). abt states a power package will soon be available for the two 2.0-tdi engines delivering 190 or 170hp (140/124kw) instead of the serial 170 and 140hp respectively (125/103kw).

unfortunately, abt is unable to show us a teaser draft of their aerodynamic kit for the passat cc, but rest assured, they`re working on it. in the mean time, you`ll have to settle for abt`s ar and br wheel which are both available in sizes 18 to 20 inch. “it is of course a matter of taste which wheel the client prefers, but, personally, i think that the br wheel with its corresponding spoke pairs suits the cc particularly well,” says hans-jürgen abt.

stay tuned as images of the aerodynamic kit will be published as soon as they become available.
