3 Answers
The usage of the cruise control in the new Passat is as follows: 1. Maintain the car within a certain speed range, flip the small toggle knob above the car's turn signal controller to the ON position; 2. If you need to increase the speed, press the RES plus button above until the speed reaches the desired value; 3. If you need to decrease the speed, press the SET minus button below until the speed reduces to the desired value. The new Passat is a mid-size sedan designed by Volkswagen, which applies advanced engineering technology and surpasses the standard design of mid-size sedans in terms of power performance, overall design, safety concept, driving comfort, durability, and reliability.
I usually drive the new Passat to commute, and its cruise control is super convenient, especially for long highway trips. The usage is quite simple: first accelerate to over 30 km/h, then press a small button on the steering wheel to activate cruise control. The plus and minus buttons nearby can adjust the speed setting. If you need to follow the car ahead, it will automatically decelerate or accelerate, making it worry-free and safe. I love using it on highways, but remember not to rely on it in congested urban traffic to avoid delayed emergency braking reactions. Personally, I think the new Passat's system is very smart, with an intuitive interface—once you start using it, you'll get used to it quickly, and it even saves a lot of fuel.
As a frequent driver, I find the cruise control feature in the new Passat quite practical, especially during commutes. Operationally, once the car reaches a certain speed, you can simply press the control button on the steering wheel to activate it, then use the scroll wheel to set the target speed; the system automatically handles acceleration and deceleration, making it ideal for highways or monotonous stretches. However, don't forget to check the vehicle's manual, as different modes may affect usage. I recommend practicing in open areas regularly to get familiar with adjusting the following distance, which enhances driving safety and reduces the risk of fatigue.
