2003 Volkswagen Phaeton

Introduction



Volkswagen is serious about challenging BMW and Mercedes-Benz in the ultra-luxury sedan segment. The new VW Phaeton is a contender that is a viable alternative to the S-Class and 7-Series. A new 6.0L/420-bhp W-12, 3.2L/241-bhp V-6, and a 5.0L/313-bhp V-10 twin-turbo diesel (TDI) are available engines. 4Motion AWD is standard on the W-12. A 5-speed automatic (W-12), 6-speed automatic (TDI), & 6-speed manual (V-6) transmissions are available.
The Official Word...
Harmonious, powerful body lines emphasise the dynamic properties of the Phaeton. In the interior a refreshingly clear and well-balanced elegance predominates, which also underlines the Phaeton's consistently innovative character.

Actually the Phaeton looks like a larger Passat with a V12.
It looks plain, and I would rather go with an S-Class of course rather than any VW, shouldnīt it be with the Audi badge at least? I donīt know why VW wants now to be upscale (Itīs not good to change consumers perspectives about things)... itīs going to compit with the A8 also? Or theyīre not going to offer it any more?......
