Midsize sedans are an endangered species and Volkswagen has decided to stop offering the Passat in Canada after 2022. The final units will be sold to fleets exclusively, meaning regular customers cannot buy one—unless it’s a 2021 model. With the end approaching fast, the company did not make any changes to the Passat for 2022. Only one engine is available, namely a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder generating 174 horsepower.
