The 2013 Volkswagen CC is the other other other Benz When the VW Passat CC debuted in 2008, it was jokingly referred to as the “poor man’s person’s CLS” due to it’s sexy but height restricting roofline.

Well now VW wants you to drop the “poor persons” bit and consider the updated CC “luxury class”: The front and rear of the new non-Passat CC has minor styling tweaks, and VW claims it’s now nearer the “automotive luxury class”. There’s also bi-xenon headlights, static cornering lights and a new LED rear headlight system as standard. VW has also fitted it with stainless steel sill plates, safety head restraints and - somewhat tellingly - fatigue detection.
