U.S.-spec VW Passat Celebrates 700,000th Example Built At Chattanooga Plant
9 May 2018, 11:10 UTC · by Mircea Panait
/ Home / News / Car Profile
As you’re well aware, sedans aren’t doing that great in the United States of America. In fact, all conventional-bodied passenger cars are playing second fiddle to crossovers and SUVs, which goes to show that demand dictates an automaker’s product lineup. To this effect, the Chattanooga plant will add a second SUV in 2019 in the form of the five-seat Atlas Cross Sport concept.
13 photosBack in March 2018, Volkswagen’s North American division confirmed “the market is shifting from sedans and passenger cars to family-friendly SUVs.” As a consequence of dwindling demand for the Chattanooga-built Passat, the plant will be idled for two weeks this spring. During this period, Volkswagen will re-tool the facility to strengthen Atlas production, the largest SUV in the automaker’s lineup.
Even though the U.S.-spec Passat sold just over 4,000 examples in April, the mid-size sedan has seen better days. The best year of the nameplate was 2012, when Volkswagen delivered 117,023 examples of the breed to North American customers. In 2017, by comparison, sales halved to 60,722 units.
Production of the U.S.-spec Passat started at Chattanooga in 2011, and to date, the Wolfsburg-based automaker managed to roll out 700,000 models. The 700,000th Passat is the Reflex Silver-painted GT pictured in the featured photo, boasting a two-tone interior, 3.6-liter VR6 engine, and a six-speed dual-clutch transmission.
“The history of Volkswagen Chattanooga is intertwined with the history of the U.S. Passat. As we grow and add models, we take pride in continuing to produce quality Passats in the state of Tennessee,” declared Antonio Pinto, president and head honcho of Volkswagen’s Chattanooga production facility. “I am very proud of our team for reaching this important milestone and look forward to more to come.”
Different from the ground up compared to the European model, the North American sedan is scheduled for a complete redesign in 2019. And as expected, the newcomer will transition to the better-handling MQB platform of the European Passat.

Venice / Sant’Agata Bolognese, Italy, 4 September 2016 – Automobili Lamborghini, manufacturer of iconic super sports cars, and «L’Uomo Vogue», Condé Nast's flagship men's lifestyle magazine, come together at the 73rd Venice International Film Festival: an event which reflects the search for excellence and the definition of new trends, and featuring three powerful brands with style, innovation and excitement as their common denominator.
Stefano Domenicali, Chief Executive Officer of Automobili Lamborghini, and Franca Sozzani, Editor-in-Chief of «L’Uomo Vogue», welcomed guests to the Scuola Grande San Giovanni Evangelista.
An exhibition entitled “The 10th Starry Year in Venice” was held to celebrate the tenth issue of the magazine covering the event: a monographic collector's edition containing the most iconic shots of the protagonists of the Italian and International cinema, taken from the issue.
The second part of the evening was held at Palazzina G, the exclusive hotel designed by Philippe Starck. On their arrival here, guests were able to admire the Aventador Miura Homage on display on the quayside next to the building, before concluding their evening in the lounge area.
Lamborghini's presence at international events where art, innovation and new trends are the common thread, highlights the Company's commitment to creating a complete brand experience in order to carry over the success of its iconic and desirable vehicles into complementary luxury environments.

Sant’Agata Bolognese, 13 July 2016 – Lamborghini launches the Ad Personam Studio at its historic Sant’Agata Bolognese headquarters: an area dedicated entirely to the company's customization program, which enables each customer to create his or her very own, Lamborghini.
The Ad Personam Studio is located in the heart of the company's production facility, and its concept and furnishings inspired by creative spaces and design studios. It is designed to offer Lamborghini customers the unique experience of being aided by an Ad Personam specialist at every step of the process, in order to select colors, interior trim and the materials of their future super sports car.
Before specifying their car, the prospective owner visits the factory on a guided tour, so he or she can view possible configurations on actual Huracán and Aventador models. Next, the customer is hosted in the sophisticated yet minimal atmosphere of the Ad Personam Studio, which includes displays of leathers, colors, materials, seats and rims, and includes an advanced car configurator for digital simulation of possible options. The lounge area is also used for displaying the particular Lamborghini model ordered by the customer.
The Ad Personam program is available for both Huracán and Aventador. As one of the company's strategic offerings, the program not only ensures the best possible customer experience, but also enhances the product and brand in a broader sense.
Ad Personam began in 2006 and was expanded in 2013 with the creation of a dedicated team consisting of representatives from the company's principal departments. The goal of the Ad Personam group of specialists is to provide a tailored consulting service that aids each customer in choosing colors, materials, trim and accessories, which meet the stylistic criteria of the Lamborghini marque and are consistent with its stringent quality and safety standards.
Since 2013, more than 50 new Ad Personam exterior colors have been developed, and the option of applying two-tone paint and livery has been introduced. The number of possible combinations of colors and materials for the interior has also been increased. New materials have even been added, such as different types of Alcantara to enhance sporty components of the car interior and new fine leathers like the semi-aniline leather to enhance the luxurious feeling of the interior.
One of the most high-tech and in-demand Ad Personam materials is Forged Composite, an innovative carbon fiber material patented by Lamborghini and offered on both the roof and the interior and exterior details of the Aventador.
In the first half of 2016 more than 50% of Lamborghini super sports cars delivered were customized with the Ad Personam option – a percentage that has tripled over the past three years. The Aventador is undoubtedly the most customized model: the privilege of a clientele that is more sensitive to the exclusiveness and uniqueness of their purchase.

Sant’Agata Bolognese, 9 June 2017 – Automobili Lamborghini has significantly expanded its prototype and pre-series vehicle development areas, as part of the ongoing production facility growth in readiness for its Super SUV, the Urus. The existing building has been extended from 5.000 m2 to 7.000 m2.
A new acoustic test room, part of the overall expansion, was officially inaugurated with the attendance of Stefano Domenicali, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Maurizio Reggiani, Board Member for Research and Development of Automobili Lamborghini.
The sound of a Lamborghini represents one of the most emotive experiences attached to the super sports car marque. The acoustic test room, which has been realized according to the latest technical standards, allows adjustment of particular sound sensations in order to create the typical Lamborghini driving experience, involving all the senses.
In line with Lamborghini’s continual quest for innovative solutions, the new facility also supports the acoustic adjustment of lightweight construction components, one of Lamborghini’s core competences. The new facility will additionally play an important role in the realization of future vehicle concepts and drive train systems.

Sant’Agata Bolognese, 12 April, 2017 – Stefano Domenicali, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Automobili Lamborghini, inaugurated the Ayrton Senna exhibition at the Lamborghini Museum in Sant’Agata Bolognese.
The event welcomed the participation of Ercole Colombo and Giorgio Terruzzi, curators of the photographic record, and Mauro Forghieri and Daniele Audetto, who attended the test drive in 1993 when Senna drove a McLaren fitted with a Lamborghini engine on the Estoril circuit.
Every race car ever driven by the Brazilian champion is on display, from his debut outing to his tragic accident, heightening the appeal of the “Ayrton Senna. The last night” photography exhibition. The cars on display include the white MP4/8, identical to the one tested at Estoril, along with its engine.
The exhibition is open daily from 12 April to 9 October, including Sundays, from 9.30 am to 7 pm, and runs alongside the Lamborghini Museum’s permanent collection.

St. Petersburg/Sant’Agata Bolognese, September 7, 2017 – “Lamborghini. Design Legend” is opening at the Erarta Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in St. Petersburg. The exhibition tells the story behind the design tradition of the House of the Raging Bull, from its founding to the present day. Visitors will be able to view some of the most iconic models from the brand’s history, displayed alongside paintings created by the Lamborghini Centro Stile, immersing themselves in a journey through an evolution of forms and styles that were not only ahead of their time, but also set a new standard for the automotive world. Lamborghini design is a highly innovative language, which flowed from the pen and the creative genius of great masters of design such as Marcello Gandini.
In the words of Stefano Domenicali, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Automobili Lamborghini, “We are truly pleased to have received this invitation from the Erarta Museum. An exhibition dedicated to our design confirms the extraordinary contemporary nature and revolutionary scope of Lamborghini's stylistic language. We wish Erarta much success for this exhibition, reflecting the success our vehicles are enjoying in the world. We are glad that a noble and beautiful city such as St. Petersburg, imbued with an Italian flavor thanks to Palladio, can serve as the backdrop for it.”
As Erarta’s Director of Communications, Ekaterina Atoyan-Milyukova, stated, “Lamborghini's design evolution and technological innovations have become not only a part of the history of the automotive world, but a part of the history of art itself. Each Lamborghini model, with its cultural significance and authenticity, has the quality of a true work of art. The Erarta Museum is therefore pleased to welcome the prestigious Italian car company Lamborghini, whose exhibition is further proof of our ongoing commitment to exhibiting the finest examples of contemporary art.”
The company’s history is told through 5 vehicles and 6 style models, illustrating the journey from the aristocratic elegance of its beginnings (perfectly embodied by a 400 GT with a 1965 body by Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera) to the 1966 revolution in taste and technology represented by the Miura (the first Gandini masterpiece with a body by Carrozzeria Bertone). A Centenario, created in 2016 by Centro Stile Lamborghini under the guidance of Mitja Borkert, provides the link to the Lamborghini design of today.
The exhibition is further enriched by the presence of two large-scale canvases (5×2 m), one depicting the Countach and the other the Centenario, executed by one of Lamborghini’s designers.
The exhibition also features engines, including the one that was the ten-time winner of the World Powerboat Championship, and the company’s contemporary racing activities represented by a rare Diablo GT and a Gallardo Super Trofeo.
The exhibition, which will be the first held in a newly opened wing of the museum, will run from 8 September to 17 December.

Sant’Agata Bolognese, October 9, 2017 – Automobili Lamborghini has debuted its new corporate identity in North America with two dealership grand opening celebrations on consecutive evenings in both Toronto, Ontario and Sterling, Virginia.
The exclusive VIP events in Toronto and Sterling on 5 October and 6 October, respectively, included attendance by Lamborghini’s global Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, Stefano Domenicali.

The Ambassador of Italy to the United States, Armando Varricchio, was also on hand to commemorate the occasion alongside other VIP customers and notable guests who came out to support the new Lamborghini store.

The museum's layout and displays have been completely renovated, providing a new visitor experience including multimedia displays and activities. The inauguration was held to coincide with the first stage of the Miura Tour, the owners' rally celebrating the iconic super sports car's 50th anniversary, with a journey of over 500 km through the Italian regions of Emilia, Liguria and Tuscany. The participants' 20 Miuras, put on display at the heart of the company, were saluted by a flyby of four Eurofighters from the 36th Stormo Caccia (fighter squadron) of the Gioia del Colle airbase near Bari in southern Italy. The new Chief of Staff of the Italian Air Force, Lt. Gen. Enzo Vecciarelli, was present.
Stefano Domenicali remarked: “The inauguration of the new Museum on the same day as the Miura Tour sets off, sends out a clear signal on Lamborghini's commitment to honoring its history. The Museum, which has been designed as an authentic experience for visitors, will be a key attraction for an ever-increasing number of arrivals from around the world. The new layout now provides a richer experience of the world of Lamborghini where our history, engines, design and technology come together in a journey from the brand's past to its future.”

New brand environment heralds forthcoming SUV and increased volumes “Lamborghini and our dealer partners are investing in a bright future”, says Automobili Lamborghini CEO Stefano DomenicaliSant’Agata Bolognese/Bristol, UK, 22 September 2016 – Automobili Lamborghini is preparing its international dealer network for the future, with the launch of a new dealership corporate identity and brand environment.
The first dealership to sport the new showroom design and service center officially opens today in Bristol, increasing the UK dealer network to eight outlets. The new corporate design will roll-out worldwide to all new and existing showrooms over the next years.
The new showroom environment reflects the need for increased space as Lamborghini expands its model line-up and doubles sales with the launch of its new SUV by 2018.
“Lamborghini is a strong, highly-acclaimed brand worldwide, and our new dealership environment is a very tangible demonstration of this, perfectly communicating our philosophies of Pure, Visionary and Cutting Edge,” said Automobili Lamborghini Chief Executive Officer, Stefano Domenicali. “It is also important that we continue to build a solid, committed dealer network that clearly communicates our brand to loyal and new clients in both the way we look and the way we operate. Both Lamborghini and our dealer partners are investing in a bright future.”
The new showroom exteriors are instantly recognizable by the illuminated Lamborghini shield on a black background that glows at night, and complemented by a black totem sporting the Lamborghini bull logo. The new showroom space is bright and clean, characterized by polygons, sharp forms, raw surfaces and a diffusion of light and color. Opportunities to literally ‘touch and feel’ the world of Lamborghini include digital elements to enhance the customer experience: a client lounge includes a car configuration system to guide the customer through specifying his Lamborghini; product and Ad Personam areas provide samples of exterior and interior finishes and allow clients to physically touch and play with combinations of colors and materials, such as soft leathers or the appearance of carbon fiber.
The range of Lamborghini models is displayed, with a car on a white center-stage uplit by LED lights in a complementary color to its exterior. Video walls give clients and even passers-by an insight into the world of Lamborghini. An area dedicated to Accessori Originali displays aftersales enhancements, and includes a digital experience with headphones and screen to explore and even hear product features such as engine sounds. The Collezione Automobili Lamborghini range of clothing and accessories has a dedicated space in the entrance, visible from both inside and through the showroom windows.
