Visibility isn’t much of an issue in the Passat Wagon thanks to ample side mirrors and a long greenhouse that affords clear over-the-shoulder viewing when passing or merging. Those side windows are short, but they make up for it in length, and with the added benefit of narrow pillars, there isn’t really anything to complain about. Ah, but every car has its faults, and in the Passat Wagon they would include the rear head rests that sacrifice a bit of rearward visibility.
