West Palm VW used cars like the 2007 Passat Wagon make for great options
Author: Riley Quinn
The station wagon has pretty much fallen out of favor in American society. Too many of us grew up watching the Brady Bunch and even had a huge, wood-paneled wagon in our own driveways. But the Volkswagen Passat is here to bring back the station wagon.
Dealers of West Palm VW used cars have seen how much customers love the Passat and the 2007 model is a favorite. Wagons have remained popular in Europe where fuel costs and parking space keep the SUV from being a viable choice.
Volkswagen is one of only
a handful of automakers who even sells wagon stateside. Jetta and Passat have their followings, but there is reason behind them.
The design of these wagons makes them easily accessible for passengers and for loading cargo. They also handle well as they have a lower center of gravity. The newest Passat in the line is the 2007 model which can stand up to the newer crossovers. Lake Worth off lease cars is convinced that customers will be pleased with the features and handling of the Passat.
The Passat utilizes the Volkswagen 200-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged and intercooled four-cylinder engine with FSI direct fuel-injection or the 3.6-liter V6 which pulls 280 horsepower and can be fitted with the VW 4Motion system, for all-wheel drive.
Customers of West Palm VW used cars will love the chrome trim around the grille and the interior with its roominess and comfort. An umbrella holder in the driver's door recalls the practical and for convenience the electronic parking brake can be set by pushing a button on the dash. The power tailgate can be opened with the key fob and the interior is classy but simple.
The driver's seat is power adjustable with lumbar and there are many storage pockets, cupholders and storage spots for all that stuff we seem to need when we're on the road. Two or three adults can ride comfortably in the back seat and it can be folded flat with a 60/40 split.
Safety features abound on the 2007 Passat, and we would expect nothing less from Volkswagen. Six standard airbags, four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes and LED taillights are a few of the highlights. The suspension uses more aluminum than the Jetta design to reduce weight and improve handling. The power steering is electromechanical, which saves on weight and cuts down on power losses from a hydraulic pump.
Dealers at Lake Worth off lease cars urge fans of the station wagon to come in and drive the 2007 Passat.
