Thomas asking the right questions, great review again

[pronominal]

Thank you for asking the designer about the front lip. I had a question myself, why make such a risky design solution?!
At first I personally didn't really accept the front lip as an attractive element of the car. But when seeing the car few times I'm actually starting to accept it.

I have the new Passat which will be given to my wife next year when I order this one! Thanks again Thomas, always costing me money :-)

I am a serious U.S. Customer for the Arteon R-Line. I am a former CC owner and have owned five VW products. The deal-breaker for me is the manual option. If a manual is offered I will purchase this car. If NOT, I will go elsewhere. Love the car!

[berylgreen]

A really handsome contemporary design. This will be a huge success for VW. Glückwünsche aus Los Angeles!

Thank you Thomas for this video! I'm really excited for this car here in the US and can't wait! I'll definitely be upgrading from my 2016 Passat to this in a couple of years!

so, apparently, the r line with the 280 engine starts from around 49.000E and goes to around 60.000 fully loaded. Now that's a lot of money for a VW. Even so, it's my dream car at the moment

[chukaone]

I have a CC right now and have a feeling this would be my next car in the coming year

Very nice. Fastbacks are underrated but I'm glad to see manufacturers try.

[MrBrown]

What car is better? The 2018 Audi Q5 or the 2018 Volvo XC60?

[radustefan]

1 thing that bothers me is that you are wearing snickers whith that suit :)
Good review tho

[thegangstagentle]

I never liked a VW before, but this is one I'd like to have!

[MrDarrenNice]

I think it looks great. I would buy one. It's obviously VW's version of the new A5 Sportback and again, you could argue and say it is the new CC. Not that any of this is a bad thing. Can't wait to the full review with driving as well. Great work 👍😊

Hi Thomas, with regards to your question about the "child safety test" of the rear hatch.... If the motor used to close the boot of the Passat is also used in this car then the reason for this one stopping easier is that the N.m (Newton meter) the motor needs to generate to push your arms out of the way is much higher as the motor is placed further away from your arms as with the Passat, thus the further you are from the motor the easier it is to stop it...

As always great video...

Greetings from South Africa

I like this evolution of the VW CC. I'm a bit biased towards the car, since I own a CC myself, but it has some undeniable qualities. It's pretty, spacious, has an air of quality to it and is somewhat upper classy without being ostentatious. It can punch above its weight class, so to say, but I don't think that it can be a real competitor for the E class, 5 series or the A6, unless the buyer can't really afford those... I'd take it however over the A4/5, 3/4 series and C class. Oh, and no animal skin interior for me please, Thomas really opened my eyes on this issue!

When will this be released in the USA?

[richardmcfarlane-cen]

Enjoyed watching this review/interview combo again. One thing that I always find curious, is that car journalists always mention Audi A5 as competition for this car. If people chose this car over the A5, I personally don’t think VW will care, as it is more cannibalisation, rather than competition. They get the money anyway. I think VW will be happy either way. Audi is VW is Porsche etc.

[Cjdergrosse]

Great review as always, will this car come to the States?

[garynembhard]

North America is supposed to get this replacement for the CC late 2018. I hope it does well. Historically, VWs German built offerings (Touareg, previous Passat) have not.
