Volkswagen has today revealed its all-new, second generation Santana model for the Chinese market.

With a wheelbase of 2,603 mm – 100 mm less than that of the current Passat, the fully redeveloped notchback saloon makes use of Volkswagen’s new range of EA 211 petrol engines, including a 66 kW (89 hp) 1.4-litre unit that returns a combined consumption figure of 5.9 l/100 km and a 81 kW (109 hp) 1.6-litre powerplant which gets through 6.0 litres over the same distance – an improvement of up to 28 percent compared to its predecessor.

Equipment such as alloy wheels, an electric sunroof, leather upholstery, parking sensors and air conditioning or automatic climate control are available as standard or optionally depending on whether you choose the Trendline, Comfortline or Highline version.
