Here’s what I imagine the business news headlines on CNN will be in 2015:

1. Volkswagen buys out Mazda. The 16th carmaker to be added to the group, VW now builds and sells over 12 million cars and is the largest auto company in the world.

 2. Bugatti, a VW group company, has announced its intent of building a 500 kph supercar. The car will cost 5 million pounds and only 25 will ever be built, all of which have been spoken for. Over 16 of those buyers are Indians, seven are Chinese, and one is European and one North American.

3. VW plans to build the cheapest car in the world in Bolivia. Bolivia is the last country in the world to get a VW manufacturing facility.

4. Volkswagen’s Passat goes through an update. Gets auto cruise-control with driver disable facility – a world first!

all this comparison seems to be a little biased towards vw, see it praised vw from the very starting of the review . IMHO review was a little biased towards vw , cos skoda is a sub brand of vw . Car reviews are no more reliable like good old days. I didnt meant to offend anyone here.

Hi Rohin, thanks for the reply. I understand there was no direct comparison between the Merc and Passat. However, what I want to know is why luxury has been given more priority in this comparison and the Passat has been declared the better of the two.

Tejus/Karizmatic - When talking about the current Passat, the comparison was drawn to the current S-Class as far as ride quality goes. The term is comes close, not exact or better. Read closely - nowhere have I said that the Superb has been bested by the Passat as far as handling goes.

I remember Karthik comparing the Superb and a presvious gen Mercedes S-Class. Guess it was a couple of years back. Back then, The Skoda was rated better than the Merc simply because it was better in the twisties. What's you take on that Rohin? Aren't you contradicting your own opinions on BSM? And ya, please don't tell me even the current Passat comes close to a previous gen Mercedes S-class!
