We got news from our VW source that, the next generation of the Volkswagen Phaeton will be position similar to the Chrysler 300 and Ford Taurus.
This is a big change that can change your mindset that how you view today’s Phaeton. For your reference, the current Phaeton is sharing the same platform with the Bentley Continental GT, and is capable of holding a 12-cylinder engine in front of its front wheel and provide power to all of its four wheels.
If the new Phaeton is designed to compete with cars that are significantly cheaper than the current model’s price tag, we are almost sure that it will not be so close to the Bentley models as it does today. And of course, it will be aiming at a total different of consumer base.
This is what we know as of today, but since there are still several years ahead of the debut of the new Phaeton, many things can change along the course. We will keep you updated if we heard anything new about the VW flagship sedan.
