"The completely redesigned Volkswagen Passat shook up the extremely competitive family sedan category in 2012," said Patrick Olsen, Cars.com editor-in-chief. "The Passat's ability to take on these long-standing family sedan leaders along with its great price and standard features makes the Passat our best car for 2012."
Six vehicles were nominated for the "Best of 2012" award. They were the 2012 Audi A7, 2012 Hyundai Accent, 2012 Hyundai Veloster, 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, 2012 Subaru Impreza and the 2012 Volkswagen Passat.
"Our editors drove and evaluated more than 65 new 2012 models and the competition was steep," said Olsen. "Narrowing down the list of great vehicles to six was no easy feat, and just being a finalist is a special honor. Drivers should be proud to have any car on this list."
Cars.com also announced its "Lifestyle" award winners at the awards show. Winners include the 2012 Honda Pilot for "Family Car of the Year," 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 for "Play Car of the Year," 2012 Ford F-150 for "Work Truck of the Year" and the 2012 Volkswagen Passat TDI for "Eco-Friendly Car of the Year."

A well deserved title for this car. My Passat from the 90's just broke down on me. That car has been really great so I am attempting to fix it up. I found this great site that offers Volkswagen parts to aid in the process.
