Party of Five: Volkswagen adds three-seat rear bench to Europe’s Passat CC

January 25, 2010

Volkswagen had a particular thing in mind when designing the Passat CC: a stylish four-seater. That is why the rear seats are recessed and separated by a cubby with a sliding plastic top.

Enough European buyers, however, asked for another seat in the back, so VW decided to give them one. Well, kind of. The company left leather in place of the cubby and added a headrest and a seat belt. And a €100 ($142 U.S.) charge. While it looks good, we can’t imagine it feels good. So to all you fifth wheels out there who’ll end up in the back of a CC, we wish you good luck.

It is not yet clear whether VWAG will offer American CC customers the bench, but we’re looking into it. In the meantime, read VW’s press release on the new option after the jump.
