Ugibanja o obliki novega (Passat) CC…

A next-generation CC based on the Volkswagen Passat is will almost certainly be built, but since we haven’t seen the next generation US-spec Passat just yet, there is still quite a bit of speculation as to how it will look. Using styling cues from the new European Passat combined with the general shape of Volkswagen’s current CC, the artists at X-Tomi Design have given us a good representation at what the car could look like.

In looking at the rendering, X-Tomi’s CC features unmistakable CC DNA throughout. The roof has been lowered, beltline raised, and edges smoothed. The designer has also seen fit to increase the grille size and wheel diameter, adding some much needed aggression to the design. In all, we think it’s a good representation of how we’d like the car to turn out. We’ll see how close X-Tomi came when the model is finally revealed.

Nekaj novih namigovanj oz. PS koncepta GTE…

X-Tomi Design Renders Production CC from Volkswagen Concept GTE

When Volkswagen pulled the wraps from its Concept GTE in Geneva earlier this month, it hinted at the car exhibiting the brand’s intentions when it comes to design. No surprise, it’s also likely a thinly veiled next step for the VW’s CC model. Render artists X-Tomi Design have taken that idea and run with it, imagining what a production CC will look like.

As you can see, changes were kept pretty minimal. These center around making the car more production ready and ridding it of its concept car tells. In theory, this is just what Volkswagen will likely do.

Changes, beyond the most obvious color change, were limited to these production details. This X-tomi CC gets production door handle, rearview mirrors, less concept-like lighting signature and smaller wheels since we can’t all roll on 20s.

Volkswagen CC – Mogoče bo predstavljen že to jesen

Že štiri leta so minila, odkar je Volkswagen posodobil takratni passat CC, ga preimenoval v CC in nadaljeval s prodajo. Avtomobil sicer v prvi generaciji vztraja na cestah že od leta 2008, zdaj pa bo prišla nova.

Novi volkswagen CC bi lahko na ceste zapeljal hitreje, kot smo upali, saj obstaja možnost, da ga bodo predstavili že na letošnjem avtomobilskem salonu v Parizu, ki vrata za novinarje odpira že konec septembra. Če se bo to res zgodilo, bo novi CC zapeljal v garaže lastnikov še pred prihodnjim poletjem in bo kljub še bolj nizki strehi zadaj, po napovedih ponujal več prostora za potnike zadaj, obenem pa bo še bolj udoben. Oblikovno sicer spominja na koncept sport coupé concept GTE, z razširjeno masko aktualne generacije modela passat.

Prav tako bo novi CC zrasel v dolžino, saj bo po novem dolg 490 centimetrov, torej skoraj 10 centimetrov več, kot aktualna generacija, posledično pa bo za 5 centimetrov povečano tudi medosje. Za pogon bo skrbela že znana paleta štirivaljnih motorjev, novost bo samo priključni hibrid GTE, ki bo premogel vsega 160 kW (218 KM) sistemske moči. Moč se bo pri klasičnih različicah sicer preko šeststopenjskega ročnega ali sedemstopenjskega dvosklopčnega menjalnika prenašala na sprednji kolesi, ob doplačilu tudi na vsa. V vsakem primeru pa novi CC ne bo stal manj kot 33 tisočakov.

Volkswagen Arteon kot naslednik modela CC

Volkswagen CC se počasi poslavlja, Volkswagen pa vse do danes ni razkril ali bo imel naslednika. Nemški proizvajalec se je odločil, da bo nadaljeval pot, vendar pod novim imenom. Model, ki bo pozicioniran nad Passatom, se bo po novem imenoval Arteon.

Arteon bo luč sveta ugledal prihodnje leto na salonu v Ženevi. Premijska limuzina z značilno kupejevsko strešno linijo se bo zavithela v sam vrh Volkswagnove modelne palete. Kljub temu, da je nemški proizvajalec razkril bore malo podatkov, so v kratkem video posnetku in na sliki razvidne nekatere oblikovne posebnosti. Horizontalna maska hladilnika se raztegne vse do žarometov LED s tridimenzionalno grafiko, ki želi s poudarjenim zunanjim videzom demonstrirati dominanco in udaren videz.

Za zdaj imajo v načrtu izdelati limuzino s stekli brez okvirjev ter spremeniti način odpiranja prtljažnih vrat. Če je bil zdaj model CC tipična limuzina, se bo Arteon zgledoval po koncernskemu bratu Audiju A7 in prtljažna vrata se bodo odpirala skupaj z zadnjim steklom.

Za več uradnih informacij bomo morali počakati še nekaj mesecev, a Tobias Sühlmann, vodja zunanjega oblikovanja pri Volkswagnu, obljublja: ”Na prvi pogled Arteon zbuja navdušenje s svojo izrazno obliko. Nato preseneti skozi svoje praktične vrednote.”

Po razkritju v Ženevi naj bi Arteon v Evropi na ceste zapeljal še isto poletje.

Prvi oblikovni detajli prihajajočega Volkswagna Arteon

Pri nemškem Volkswagnu so napovedali, da bodo na avtomobilski salon v Ženevo pripeljali naslednika modela CC, ki so ga poimenovali Arteon. A še pred uradnim razkritjem so pokazali prve detajle, ki vsaj malce razkrivajo prihajajočo kupejevsko limuzino.

Model Arteon, čigar ime je sestavljanka besed »Art« (umetnost) ter »Eon« (končnica, ki označuje pri Volkswagnu najbolj prestižne modele – npr. kitajski Phideon), predstavlja zamenjavo za model CC. Pri Volkswagnu ga umeščajo med Passata in pred kratkim ukinjenega Phaetona, pri čemer naj bi iskal svojo konkurenco tudi med precej bolj prestižnimi modeli, kot so Audi A5 Sportback, BMW serije 4 Gran Coupe ter celo Audi A7 Sportback.

Pri Volkswagnu hkrati obljubljajo, da se bo novi Arteon, ki se sicer v veliki meri naslanja na dve leti nazaj v Frankfurtu predstavljeni konceptni Sport Coupe Concept GTE, ponašal z obilico prostora na vseh sedežih ter najsodobnejšimi asistenčnimi sistemi. Ostale tehnične podrobnosti zaenkrat še držijo zase, razkrili pa jih bodo marca v Ženevi, ko ga bodo tudi uradno predstavili javnosti.

Volkswagen Arteon

Volkswagen has revealed important details about the Arteon ahead of the Geneva Motor Show, where it will make its public debut this week. With up to 276 hp, a sloping roofline, and gesture controls VW is throwing its hat into the grand coupe ring.

“The Arteon combines the design elements of a classic sports car with the elegance and space of a fastback,” says Klaus Bischoff, VW’s head desinger. “It’s an avant-garde business-class Gran Turismo that speaks to the heart and head alike.”

Six engines are on offer for the European spec Arteon, three TDIs and three TSIs. The 2.0-liter TDI engines, offering 148, 188, and 236 hp are unlikely to find their way over to our shores, but the 2.0-liter TSI engines offering 188 and 276 hp probably will. Meanwhile the sixth, 1.5-liter TSI Evo engine offering 148 hp is also unlikely to come to America.

Six and seven-speed gearboxes are available, with the bigger output engines coming standard with the 7-speed DSG ‘box. 4Motion is standard on the biggest TSI and TDI engines, and available on the 188 hp TDI engine. According to European fuel ratings, the 276 hp TSI will get 25.6 mpg city and 38.6 mpg highway, for a combined 32.2 mpg.

With a 111.9 inch wheelbase (that’s one inch longer than the A5 Sportback and 3 inches longer than the CC) the MQB based Arteon has short overhangs and ample room inside. Luggage capacity goes from 19.9 cubic feet with the back seats up to 55 cubic feet with them down.

The Arteon will also feature a suite of VW’s latest infotainment technology. With an available 9.2 inch glass screen in the center console, gesture controls, VW’s new digital dash, and a heads up display the Arteon will be every bit the luxury car it needs to be.

Speaking of luxury, the Arteon comes with available contrast stitching and Alcantara/”Vienna” leather seats. Outside, it features standard 18″ Muscat wheels and standard LED headlights and taillights.

The Arteon is set to go on sale in June, in Germany. No announcements have been made about when it will go on sale in North America, but it is coming stateside. No prices have been mentioned either, but VW promises that it will priced “attractively.” We’ll have more on that when it becomes available.
