The Passat indeed has a hybrid version, which is the Passat Plug-in Hybrid model. I've been following the Volkswagen series for a long time. This hybrid version combines the advantages of both fuel and electric power. In pure electric mode, it can run about 50 kilometers, which is completely sufficient for daily urban commuting—quiet and fuel-efficient, with electricity costs being much cheaper than fuel. For weekend long-distance trips, switching to hybrid mode allows the engine to assist in power supply, resulting in ultra-low comprehensive fuel consumption and longer range per tank of fuel. Charging is convenient—just install a socket in your home garage, and fast charging can fill the battery in a few hours. Many cities now also offer new energy subsidies, and the exemption from purchase tax makes it a very cost-effective option. The spacious interior is perfect for family trips, and the long battery warranty period keeps maintenance costs low, making it a practical and economical choice.
