Volkswagen CC - Pictures

The Volkswagen CC is a four-door coupe which challenges the Mercedes CLS and the Audi A5 Sportback.

The CC benefits from being facelifted in 2011 giving a more imposing nose and an attractive chrome grille.

The CC's interior look similar to the Passat on which it's based.

The Volkswagen CC gets the best of the Passat's engine lineup, starting with a 1.4-litre turbo petrol offering enough performance for most buyers.

The CC is available with a very efficient 2.0-litre diesel engine that emits just 120g/km of CO2.

The Volkswagen CC handles nicely but the steering is too light for enthusiastic drivers.

Rear headroom is poor due to the sloping roofline.

Boot space is 452 litres, and the back seat splits and folds easily.
