Proving that the Volkswagen Passat R GT Concept car is more than a pretty face, engineers squeezed in a 3.2-liter V6 with twin Garrett turbochargers and twin intercoolers. Add in custom exhaust and intake manifolds and the result is a 575-horsepower German super sedan. Complementing the air-gulping motor is VW’s 4Motion all-wheel-drive system and Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) automatic transmission. The entire package rides on a coil-over suspension and stops with Brembo discs that measure 365mm in front and 365mm in the rear. The Volkswagen Passat R GT Concept meets the road through 245/30 Michelin Pilot Sport2 tires that envelop 19 x 9-inch Avus forged aluminum wheels.
