The 2013 Volkswagen CC carries forward the same engine options from the previous years. Both engines provide great power output and overall performance. Along with that, the CC provides decent fuel economy but is lower than its competitors. The interior is not as spacious and is well designed to provide great comfort to all the passengers.
We would recommend you to opt for the base Sport trim as it provides all the necessary features as standard. Some of them include automatic bi-xenon headlights, climate control, heated seats, touchscreen interface, and many more. Thus at a price of $30,545 the 2013 Volkswagen CC provides the best value for the money spent.
