2018 Volkswagen Passat Driver Assistance Features
Volkswagen wants you to feel confident when you are driving.

These Driver Assistance features include Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Blind Spot Monitor, Lane Assist, Park Assist, Park Distance Control, Front Assist and Rear Traffic Alert.
Adaptive Cruise Control will help drivers to maintain a preset distance from the vehicle in front of them while the car speeds up or slows down. Lane Assist will sense if the driver starts to drift into another lane by mistake and can help correct it. Park Distance Control is helpful to drivers when they are pulling into or backing out of a parking space by displaying how much space they have behind or in front of the vehicle. Drivers who want more help with parking will find the Park Assist feature helpful. Park Assist determines if a space is big enough for your vehicle and then will help to steer you into the space while the driver operates the foot pedals.
