The Volkswagen Passat is an exceptionally smart choice for drivers seeking a highly refined, cost-effective alternative to bulky SUVs. Winner of prestigious safety accolades, the latest generation (B9) model offers a class-leading 690-litre boot and limo-like rear legroom, making it a masterclass in daily practicality. For company car choosers and high-mileage commuters, the 1.5 TSI eHybrid version is particularly compelling, boasting an outstanding electric-only range of up to 82 miles that dramatically cuts down running costs and positions it in an incredibly low Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) tax band.
Volkswagen is a German manufacturer known for creating affordable and reliable vehicles designed to last. One way to make a brand-new car even more affordable is to lease, as you'll pay a fixed monthly sum for a set period of time, and unlike with a PCP agreement you're not expected to make a balloon payment or pay the full cost of the vehicle off over the agreement period, so it will be cheaper.
Opting for a Passat lease allows you to enjoy premium features like the latest MIB4 infotainment setup, standard massaging seats, and superior motorway damping without the burden of long-term depreciation or resale risks.

The VW Passat is an ideal lease for families and high-mileage company car drivers! It has a range of highly efficient engines available (mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid), and offers some of the best rear legroom and passenger space in its class.
You might like to compare the Passat with similar estate or large family car models. If that's the case then we recommend taking a look at the leasing deals we currently have on the Skoda Superb Estate or the BMW 3 Series Touring.
There are a number of reasons that leasing your next Passat is a great choice! You’ll get to drive a brand new car every few years, without the hassle of buying and selling, for a fixed monthly cost that can include maintenance work as well.
A brand new car comes with a lot of perks outside of keeping up with the latest in design and technology advances and these include no wear to the vehicle so lower maintenance costs, an MOT not being due for 3 years, the manufacturer’s warranty, and much more.
While not a brand associated with luxury, like BMW or Lexus, Volkswagen manage to bring a touch of luxury to their practical models, especially when you look at the higher spec versions.
No there’s no fully electric version of the Passat just yet, though VW did confirm there was one in the pipeline. However, there are hybrid versions.
The B9 generation of the Volkswagen Passat eHybrid is available in 2 distinct plug-in power variations: a 204 PS entry-level model and a more potent 272 PS top-tier model, both of which utilise an identical 19.7 kWh net capacity battery. Because they share the same battery architecture, both variants offer virtually the same exceptional, class-leading pure-electric driving range of up to 77 to 83 miles depending on your chosen wheel size and trim specification.
When you factor in a full tank of petrol alongside a fully charged battery, the hybrid system working in tandem delivers a total combined driving range of approximately 560 to 600 miles, making it incredibly efficient for long-distance trips.
