The Volkswagen Passat Variant (also Passat Xinlingyu or New Lingyu ) is a mid-range passenger car that has been produced by Shanghai Volkswagen at the Nanjing plant for the People's Republic of China since 2009 . It was built on the platform of the Škoda Superb . The technology as well as the body were largely adopted from the Passat Lingyu .
The engines are also all from the Lingyu. The entry-level model has an in-line four-cylinder engine with a displacement of 1984 cm³ and an output of 85 kW. In the middle is a 110 kW turbo engine with a displacement of 1781 cm³. The top model has a V6 engine with a displacement of 2771 cm³ and an output of 140 kW.
The Passat Variant is available in the equipment lines Zenxiang, Zenping, Zzenshi, Zenjie and Zhizen.
When FAW-Volkswagen received the order in summer 2010 to assemble the European station wagon version of the Passat B6 from CKD kits, the model name was already in use. The name Magotan Variant was optionally available . But because of the different components, they ultimately refrained from using a common name. The model name was eventually shortened to VW Variant .
