The Volkswagen CC (originally known as the Volkswagen Passat CC in its first generation) is a four-door sedan-fastback version of the Volkswagen Passat. It debuted in January 2008 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. According to Volkswagen, the suffix CC stands for Comfort Coupé.
The CC falls between the Passat and the Phaeton in VW's range — while based on the Passat, and sharing its wheelbase, the CC is 27 mm (1.06 inches) longer, 50 mm (1.97 inches) lower, and 36 mm (1.42 inches) wider than the Passat making it more executive oriented of the Phaeton.
Market
At its launch in 2008, Volkswagen stated ambitions of selling 300,000 units over a period of seven years. The automaker expects that 60% of these sales (about 26,000 units per year) will come from the U.S. market.
In China, the CC was released by FAW-VW on July 15, 2010, and is available in 1.8TSI and 2.0TSI trims.
With the revised version, Volkswagen promotes the CC as having "sports car" dynamics, but road tests indicate that "calling the CC a sport sedan is completely misleading." Compared to other midsize sedans in the marketplace, the 2013 Volkswagen CC was evaluated by Edmunds as "attractive and higher-quality alternative ... though its smallish backseat and trunk may be deal-breakers ... [and] the sport-tuned suspension is on the firm side." Automotive journalists describe the CC sedan's ride as "nearly sports car firm, with every bump and undulation sent directly to your backside."

2012 restyling
 |
| 2012 version |
A restyling to the CC was presented at the Los Angeles Auto Show, and production started in January 2012. The front and rear were revised to make the CC look similar to the current Volkswagen design, while the midsection is unchanged.
Interior changes included a minor design change to the center console, with an updated ACC control panel. This design is also used in the Passat Alltrack.
European engine options remain the same as for the 2011 Passat CC. Transmission options were carried over from the previous version, but the diesel automatic transmission now has with a free-wheel function that is claimed to reduce fuel consumption by disengaging the clutch when the driver lifts their foot from the accelerator. The XDS electronic differential brake also used in the Golf GTI will be available as standard and optional equipment.
Initially available only in V6 as an AWD alternative, but diesel versions became available during 2012. Availability of diesel 4WD varies by market.
As in North America, the Passat CC will from the 2012 restyling drop the Passat name and be called Volkswagen CC.
In January 2013 the optional 2.0 TDI 170 PS (130 kW; 170 hp) was replaced by an uprated version with 177 PS (130 kW; 175 hp). The maximum torque increased from 350 to 380 Nm.
