Which Volkswagen model is the longest?
1 Answers
Volkswagen's longest sedan is the discontinued Phaeton, which is also the most luxurious sedan in Volkswagen's lineup. The Volkswagen Phaeton was officially launched in 2002, primarily introduced to enhance Volkswagen's competitiveness in the luxury car segment, competing mainly with the Audi A8, BMW 7 Series, and Mercedes-Benz S-Class. The Volkswagen Phaeton was produced at the Dresden factory, where Volkswagen established the Transparent Factory, allowing buyers to witness the entire process from vehicle assembly to delivery. The Volkswagen Phaeton was built on the MLM-Evo platform, reducing the vehicle's weight by 220 kilograms while maintaining the same body dimensions, significantly improving fuel economy. The exterior design of the Volkswagen Phaeton largely follows the family-style design, featuring a solid chassis and excellent stability during cornering.
