2-Year Forecasted Depreciation
*Depreciation for the last 12 months of the private party resale value.
Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.

If you want a classy-looking family vehicle that’s roomy, made in America (Tennessee, to be precise) and handles like a proper European sedan, put the Passat on your radar. If you’re seeking a diesel sedan rated up to 44 mpg, the Passat TDI is a pleaser.
If you desire the latest safety technology like lane-departure warning and blind-spot monitoring or a slick infotainment system, look past the Passat. From a styling perspective, the Passat’s lines might be too conservative for buyers seeking more flash.
