Volkswagen Passat Estate boot space, practicality and safety
The Passat has achieved a five-star rating in the Euro NCAP crash test and scored four stars for child protection. ESP (an electronic stability programme) is standard as are front, side and curtain airbags, automatic pedal retraction, seatbelt reminder and active head restraints.
The estate version of the Passat offers almost 30 litres more luggage space than the saloon with the rear seats in place. However, the ability to fold the chairs down flat means it’s possible to carry larger and longer loads. It also increases the total available load capacity to 1,641 litres. This is big enough for most things you can throw at the Passat but it’s still smaller than the maximum boot space of alternatives like the Honda Accord, Ford Mondeo and Mazda 6.
There’s an optional luggage organiser (like the one offered in the Audi A6 Avant) which uses belts and rigid bars to keep items of luggage secure while you are driving.
