2011 VW Phaeton Facelift

Volkswagen will probably be the car’s extra large humans, recently facelifted Phaeton, back to the U.S.. Initially introduced to help VW to compete with BMW, Mercedes and Lexus (Audi ‘s not what for?) Was pulled from shelves in 2006 because of darkness sales for its very un-VW price. Comeback contributing to a tripling of Volkswagen’s sales in the U.S. market.

Redesign is in the works, but thought $ 80,000 + In-oak (Tuareg lot) still sounds a tad sentimental. Now they have to turn down by Volkswagen, a serious player in big-affordable luxury segment, which is near the Hyundai Equus be. To do this, VW would probably get himself to the parts bin and more of the Audi A6 and Passat might even bring his own.

The bottom line is this: Audi A8, VW is not necessary in the queue just to have a model of the Passat. Something about the A6 platform, it would be acceptable, as with China A6L LWB platform as a starting point? It could even offer V6s and V8s.

Currently, however, Phaeton sales growing slowly (mainly because of its presence in China). Since the Chinese market will play an important role in the future, Phaeton, and some Chinese About LWB models, there is no reason not to move from the Phaeton platform A6L.

Given the size / price difference between the Passat and the Phaeton was nothing less than great, A6 VW Phaeton based on outstanding higher-end model that a) did not distance itself too far from its roots, 2) does not ‘t step A8 cabbage , 3) represents a major German car-ish for customers who do not need a badge to feel better about themselves, and 4) are not the big red elephant in the room to disturb.
