The Volkswagen CC is a "four-door coupe" that seeks to combine the dramatic styling of a coupe with the practicality of a sedan. Like the Mercedes-Benz CLS that sparked this emerging segment, the CC seats four, providing easier access to the rear seats than a normal coupe.
For the latest model year, Volkswagen updated the CC with more standard equipment as well as revised exterior styling.
The CC is based on the outgoing version of the bread-and-butter Passat sedan. That doesn’t mean the CC is outdated, however: whereas the latest Passat has been enlarged, de-contented and cheapened to appeal to the middle of the American market, the older Passat was a more luxurious, refined and highly-tuned driver’s machine.
The CC’s connection to the old Passat is most visible in its sophisticated cabin. Soft-touch materials abound, fit and finish is excellent and the overall design is intuitive, flowing and polished.It is the CC’s exterior that will win over most buyers, though. The overall look is one of simple elegance, with details like a relatively low, sloping roofline and sleek lights contributing to the attractive, expensive-seeming mien.
Styling changes for the latest model year include a simpler, more conservative grille and headlamp design that brings the look more in line with Volkswagen's mainstream Passat and Jetta offerings. The front and rear fascias were also worked over, while Bi-Xenon headlights with VW’s Adaptive Front Lighting System and LED taillamps are now standard equipment.
