The length, width, and height dimensions of the Volkswagen Passat are 4948mm/1836mm/1469mm, which are official data. The length of the Volkswagen Passat refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the car; the width refers to the distance between two planes parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle; the height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the vehicle's supporting plane. The turbocharged engine of the Volkswagen Passat has a maximum power of 162kW and a maximum torque of 350Nm. The engine's maximum power speed ranges from 4500 to 6200 rpm, and the maximum torque speed ranges from 1500 to 4400 rpm. It is equipped with multi-point electronic injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head. This engine is paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. National regulations have specific requirements regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard 'GB1589-89,' the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. In other words, the significance of vehicle width data in national standards is to ensure enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the requirements of public road usage.
