Let’s talk Volkswagen.
What makes a Volkswagen a Volkswagen. See those little icons
over there? They represent the big ideas that every Volkswagen
must live up to in order to earn the VW badge. No matter how
large or small, all models are a combination of these essential
ideas. Find an icon and you’ll discover something special about
a Volkswagen. It’s really that simple.
Das Auto
A VW doesn’t just start off as sheet metal and engine
parts. It begins as an idea. A belief that getting the little
things right is a big thing. A viewpoint that asks why
dumb it down when you can smart it up. An attitude that
says to make things perfect, you have to make them
perfectly. Some would call these just a bunch of good ideas.
We call them Das Auto.

The CC
Some might say that a car this beautiful speaks for itself.
And if it could, it would probably coax you inside to
feel the optional supple leather bucket seats, or admire
the touchscreen stereo system complete with Bluetooth®
technology, or check out the multi-function steering wheel.
Once you’ve climbed into the driver’s seat, it would extol
the virtues of its award-winning 2.0L TSI® turbocharged
engine until you just had to take it out for a spin. And
then, out on the open road, you’d discover the available
sunroof and tilt it open to let in the breeze. After all,
looks aren’t everything, but in the case of the CC, its
stunning good looks will open the door to the vast array
of features it has to offer. And that’s definitely something.

Design. To Volkswagen designers, sculpting a car as
beautiful as the CC is reward enough. But apparently
the judges didn’t agree. Because they gave it three
international design awards in its very first year. Okay,
we admit it. That feels pretty good too.
It’s what’s on the outside
that counts.
Designing a new car is a tall order. Not only does it have to be beautiful, but it also
needs to be robust enough to triumph over everyday use if it’s going to wear the VW
badge. That’s why everywhere you look, there are graceful lines and thoughtful
details. We made the CC gorgeous so you’d covet it before you ever sat inside. And
we added each and every feature so you would never want to give up the keys,
even to the valet. Because we thought that a car we affectionately refer to as the Comfort
Coupe (thanks to its luxurious interior and gently sloping roof) should live up to
both its names.

Design. Everyone knows that details add up. And since the goal of the CC was to
fuse exceptional design with uncompromised engineering, every detail was not
only thought about, it was also fussed over. A lot. And we think you’ll appreciate it.
If you want to make something
big, start small.
A. Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers
Like a little mind reader, an invisible sensor in the windshield
detects how much water is obstructing your vision, and the wipers
adjust their speed automatically.
B. Power Glass Tilt Sunroof
Blur the lines between outside and in with the available tilt sunroof.
It makes the great outdoors the ultimate addition to your ride.
C. Pinch Protection on Power Windows
If there’s a set of unsuspecting fingers still feeling the breeze
when the windows are closing, we help protect every single digit
by including pinch protection on all power windows.
F. Bi-Xenon™ Headlights with AFS
Brighter than halogen or regular filament bulbs, these special
optional headlights with the Adaptive Front-lighting System turn up
to 15 degrees around corners to help effectively see into the future.
G. Hydraulic Brake Assist (HBA)
Starting fast is nice. Stopping fast is a must. HBA recognizes how
quickly the brakes are pressed and automatically kicks in the
Anti-lock Braking System for maximum deceleration when needed.
H. Exterior Signal Mirrors
The CC has side mirrors with blinkers built right in. So every time
you turn your signal on, everyone will know your next move.

D. Frameless Doors
Because the doors on the CC have no window frame, the windows
automatically adjust to make the doors easier to open, then
seal upon closing to help reduce road noise and keep the road
aerodynamics balanced.
E. Diversity Antenna
Some might call it overkill, we just call it smart. We put two radio
antennas on your CC so the one with the stronger signal for
any given channel rules the roost. That way you have the best
reception possible, bar none.
I. Four-Corner Independent Suspension
Thanks to the sport-tuned multi-link suspension, and four
wheels designed to individually respond and correct for any
disturbances, your CC will give you mile after mile of firm,
race-inspired handling.
J. Alloy Wheels
No matter which of the alloy wheels you’re sporting, each one
is designed to complement your CC. Take, for example, the
available 18" polished Interlagos wheels pictured here. Their
gently twisting helicopter design is sure to turn heads as you drive.
