PETALING JAYA: If you are a Volkswagen fan and dig motorsports personality Tengku Djan Ley Tengku Mahaleel, then you will want to catch up on what's happening.
Volkswagen is readying a live YouTube walkthrough of the facelifted Passat 2.0TSI Elegance at 7.30pm tonight. It will be presented by none other than Tengku Djan, notable for his racing and drifting pursuits.
The car would be officially launched on Friday.
Now some details of the Passat to whet the appetite.
The new B8 Passat has, of course, a new look that features redesigned front and rear bumpers, and radiator grille as well as new LED headlights.
It is the first Volkswagen that is capable of partially automated driving at any speed (0 to 210kph) with a new IQ.Drive unmanned vehicle technology.
New features include a capacitive steering wheel, which detects touch by the driver, thus providing an interactive interface.
Another new feature in the Passat is “Emergency Steering Assist”, which increases safety when performing evasive manoeuvres by means of braking interventions.
Interested buyers can register on Volkswagen Malaysia's website.
