The current CC was by your Chef Bandroker described as ‘one of the coolest Volkswagens of this moment.” Now there is a new Passat on the scene has appeared looms the question immediately: come the Germans again with a CC?

The answer is a resounding yes. There will be a new CC. Especially in America and China popular model – soon, it is not even available in the Netherlands – will be on a number of key points differ from the current CC. Volkswagen ceo Michael Horn had himself recently in an interview, namely, mentioned that they for the styling look to a fastback-like rear á la Audi A7. With a more sloping rear window.

What we in the courts have picked up that VW the CC the higher will position. A path that has been embarked on by the facelift the name ‘Passat’ to drop. It had more of a private model, with an identity of its own. Soon, it shifts the CC again a little further on, between the Passat and the Phaeton to finish. Thus is it also in opposition to the CLS of Mercedes.

What is not yet known, is whether the CC based on the Passat (read: the MQB platform), or that they make a larger (read: the MLB platform that does duty in the Audi A4 thru A8). The introduction of the following CC is, according to our source in 2016, and given the fact that the CC mainly in the US and China is in demand, we must take into account a recent unveiling in Detroit or Beijing.
