A test mule of the Volkswagen Passat has been spotted. We are told that there was a Petrol sticker near the fuel cap, which indicates that it could have a turbocharged petrol (TSI) engine under the bonnet.

The updated Passat has a chrome grille with new LED headlamps and a redesigned front bumper. It appears to have redesigned tail lights and rear bumper that has integrated reflectors. It has the Passat lettering on the boot lid. The test car is riding in silver alloy wheels.

The old BS4-compliant model was powered by a 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder diesel engine producing 174 BHP @ 3,600-4,000 rpm and 350 Nm @ 1,500-3,500 rpm. The engine was paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The new Passat is expected to get BS6-compliant engine options. It is expected to be launched sometime in 2020.
