2013 Volkswagen CC

For the 2013 model year, the Volkswagen CC gains new front and rear styling and an extended range of standard equipment that includes Bi-Xenon headlights and LED taillights. With its sweeping roofline, dramatic body detailing, low-to-the-ground stance, and elegant frameless side windows, the new 2013 Volkswagen CC offers expressive, head-turning design for the cost of a traditional sedan.

As a result of the exterior changes, the Volkswagen CC looks even more elegant while also appearing more muscular. New aluminum-alloy wheels and exterior colors complement other exterior modifications.

To add to the versatility and flexibility of the new five-passenger CC, the rear seatback is split 60/40 and folds forward to connect the trunk to the cabin to increase load space. There's also a pass-through behind the armrest to accommodate longer items, like skis.

The CC is again launched with the award-winning, 2.0-liter turbocharged and direct-injected TSI four-cylinder engine that generates 200 horsepower and the 3.6-liter narrow-angle VR6 engine that produces 280 horsepower.

All 2.0-liter models are front-wheel drive. The 2.0-liter engine is mated to either a six-speed manual or a six-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The VR6 engine is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission with Tiptronic shifting, driving either through the front wheels on the new VR6 Lux model or via 4Motion all-wheel drive on the topline VR6 Executive model, which is also equipped with paddle shifters. Producing 265 lb-ft of torque, the 3.6-liter VR6 offers refined, responsive performance.

All 2012 CC models are equipped with a sport-tuned suspension to satisfy the driver looking for lively, involving handling coupled with a smooth, comfortable ride for daily driving.
