About the environmental friendliness of the Volkswagen Passat (VW Passat B3)

The Volkswagen Passat is designed in such a way that it causes minimal harm to the environment - for this reason, when designing this model, the manufacturers, whenever possible, refused to use environmentally harmful materials, such as cadmium and asbestos.

In the production of the paintwork, the amount of chemical solvents was reduced and varnishes made partly on a water basis were used.

All engines for the Volkswagen Passat are economical, operate silently, and their exhaust gases contain few harmful substances.

The efficiency of the engine depends largely on your driving style. You will find tips and recommendations on this topic in this manual.

Unpleasant odours from plastic trim or the fuel tank are minimised by using new materials for the instrument panel and special treatment of the fuel tank to reduce odours and harmful fumes.

The Volkswagen Passat is designed to be recycled in an environmentally friendly manner. The plastic parts of the car are marked with special symbols to facilitate subsequent identification of the materials and their reuse. Some of these plastics are 100% recyclable.
