Model Overview of The Volkswagen CC's For Sale in Middletown, CT

2016 Volkswagen CC Information

2016 Volkswagen CC

The Volkswagen CC is a sleek and upscale version of the Passat that offers comfort and poise.

Volkswagen boldly called the CC a four-door coupe when it first came out as a 2009 model, inventing the description and distinction that other sleek sedans have since taken. Today, the Volkswagen CC competes with cars such as the Nissan Maxima, Lincoln MKZ, Volvo S60, Acura TLX, and Audi A4.

The CC comes as the 2.0T with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine making 200 horsepower, or the 3.6-liter VR6 4Motion model with 280 horsepower. The 2.0T feels significantly lighter and more nimble, and the smaller engine makes a good 207 pound-feet of torque with no turbo lag, matching the response of the more powerful V6.

New for 2016 is a base model called Trend. Also new: an upgraded infotainment system with a USB port; forward-collision warnings, lane-departure warnings, automatic braking. VR6 models offer adaptive cruise control.

Safety equipment includes rearview camera, front side airbags, and curtain airbags, with rear side airbags available. The CC has not been recently crash-tested by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, which rates it only for rollover resistance, four stars. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety rates the CC as Good in its tests, its top score, with a Marginal rating for its challenging small-overlap test, which is like hitting a telephone pole.

The Volkswagen CC 2.0T with manual transmission is EPA-rated at 21/32 mpg City/Highway, or 25 Combined miles per gallon. With the twin-clutch automatic manual its the same. The thirsty all-wheel-drive VR6 4Motion gets about 5 mpg less.

2014 Volkswagen CC Information

2014 Volkswagen CC

The Volkswagen CC is a four-door with the sort of swoopy styling normally associated with two-door coupes. Low and sleek, with a wide stance and athletic profile, this sporty four-door looks and drives like a luxury vehicle, whether you call it a sedan or a coupe.

First introduced for 2009, the Volkswagen CC got revised front and rear styling for 2013, along with a more usable rear center seat, which allows the CC to seat five, unlike prior CC models, which only had room for four. The 2014 Volkswagen CC gets a few updates: navigation comes standard, with six-month, no-charge trial of VW Car-Net connected services. Those security/convenience features include automatic crash notification, roadside assistance, and stolen vehicle location assistance, as well as remote vehicle access and boundary/speed alerts. A vehicle health report also is part of the service.

Also new for 2014, the Volkswagen CC 2.0T Executive trim level joins the lineup, with many of the features found on the top-of-the-line Volkwagen CC VR6 4Motion Executive model. Among them: leather seating surfaces, ebony interior trim, a sunroof, rearview camera, premium navigation system, keyless access and pushbutton start, and 18-nich alloy wheels. All Executive models now have a hands-free trunk, which opens with the swipe of one's foot under the back bumper.

As with most Volkswagens, the CC interior design is stylish, yet simple, with high-quality materials. The cabin feels racy due to the steeply raked windshield and distant dashboard. It's cozy inside, and there isn't as much front legroom as in the Acura TSX, Nissan Maxima or Lexus IS. Cargo space is small for the class, comparable to that of the Lexus IS.

Volkswagen CC comes standard with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine rated at 200 horsepower and 207 pound-feet of torque. On our test drives, we found it powerful and smooth. The Sport model has front-wheel drive and is available with a choice of 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic Direct Shift Gearbox.

At the top of the line, the Volkswagen CC VR6 4Motion Executive is powered by a 3.6-liter V6 rated at 280 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is standard.

Built on the Passat platform, the Volkswagen CC is a cooler-looking alternative to its more traditional sedan sibling. However, its chic styling takes a toll on practicality. The low roofline makes for greatly reduced rear headroom, and the cabin generally has a less spacious feel all around. But for those who don't mind the cozy dimensions, the Volkswagen CC is a sophisticated alternative in a sea of vanilla midsize sedans.

The 2014 Volkswagen CC walks the line between affordable family sedan and entry-level luxury car. It's a more upscale alternative to traditional four-doors such as the Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata and Volkswagen Passat, yet in the higher trim levels can also go head-to-head with premium models such as the Audi A4 and Acura TLX and Infiniti Q50 sedan.

2013 Volkswagen CC Information

2013 Volkswagen CC

Throughout automotive history, coupe was a term used to describe a two-door car. Enter the Volkswagen CC. First introduced for 2009, the four-door midsize car was dubbed a coupe by its German creators, much to the chagrin of purists. Those who argue the case for a coupe with more than two doors claim the term really refers to a car's roofline, which is low and sleek. Using this argument, the CC delivers. With its wide stance and athletic profile, this sporty four-door looks and drives like a luxury vehicle, no matter what you call it.

Built on the Passat platform, the Volkswagen CC is a cooler-looking alternative to its more traditional sedan sibling. Unfortunately, its chic styling takes its toll on practicality. The low roofline makes for greatly reduced rear headroom, and the cabin generally has a less spacious feel all around. Still, for those who don't mind the cozy dimensions, the Volkswagen CC is a sophisticated alternative in a sea of vanilla midsize sedans.

The 2013 Volkswagen CC gets revised front and rear styling, along with a usable rear center seat, which allows the CC to seat five, unlike pre-2013 CC models, which only had room for four. Volkswagen says the old seating arrangement was a top reason many shoppers failed to purchase the CC.

The 2013 Volkswagen CC lineup includes two new trim levels: a 2.0T Sport Plus with 18-inch wheels and navigation and a VR6 Lux model that comes with leather upholstery, navigation with 6.5-inch touchscreen, rearview camera, heated headlight washer system, and memory function for seating and mirrors.

As with most Volkswagens, the CC interior design is stylish, yet simple, with high-quality materials. The cabin feels racy due to the steeply raked windshield and distant dash. It's cozy inside and there isn't as much front legroom as in the Acura TSX, Nissan Maxima or Lexus IS. The rear bucket seats accommodate just two in cozy comfort with decent legroom but limited headroom. Cargo space is small for the class, comparable to that of the Lexus IS.

The Volkswagen CC comes standard with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine rated at 200 horsepower and 207 pound-feet of torque. On our test drives, we found it powerful and smooth. It uses front-wheel drive and is available with a choice of 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic Direct Shift Gearbox.

Volkswagen CC VR6 models use a 3.6-liter V6 rated at 280 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque, mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. An all-wheel drive version of the VR6 is available, but is pricey.

Volkswagen CC comes standard with front-wheel drive, and 4Motion all-wheel drive is available for slippery conditions.

The 2013 Volkswagen CC walks the line between affordable family sedan and entry-level luxury car. It's a more upscale alternative to traditional four-doors such as the Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata and Volkswagen Passat, yet in the higher trim levels can also go head-to-head with prestige vehicles such as the Audi A4 and Acura TL and Infiniti G Sedan.
