What is the engine displacement of the Passat 300?

The Passat does not have a 300 badge. The Passat only comes in 280TSI, 330TSI, and 380TSI models. The 280TSI model uses a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, the 330TSI model uses a low-power version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, and the 380TSI model uses a high-power version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. All three engines are paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Passat's body dimensions are 4933mm in length, 1836mm in width, and 1469mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2871mm.
The engine displacement of the Passat 300 is typically 1984cc, which is the 2.0-liter turbocharged version. I've been driving this car for over a year and am very satisfied with its power performance—it responds quickly when overtaking on the highway and doesn’t drag during starts at traffic lights. In terms of fuel consumption, it averages around 10 liters per 100 kilometers in the city and drops to 7 liters on the highway, slightly higher than some 1.5-liter models but reasonable, with no burden for daily commuting. Regular maintenance includes oil and air filter changes to ensure engine cleanliness and prevent carbon buildup from affecting performance. Over time, I’ve found that a larger displacement offers more stable handling, with a quiet engine sound even on uphill climbs, making it suitable for long trips or family road trips. If you're just buying a car, pay attention to the engine model designation—confirm whether it's the 280 or 330 series, as they have similar displacements but different horsepower, which affects the overall driving experience.
