Volkswagen AG is developing a coupe-style Passat that the automaker hopes will attract Mercedes-Benz customers, according to AutoWeek. The unnamed four-door coupe, code-named the CC, will be launched in early 2008. It will be assembled at the Emden factory in northern Germany. VW hopes the coupe will compete against the Mercedes-Benz CLS. The coupe’s base engines will be a 140-hp diesel and a 150-hp gasoline engine, but a range-topping 3.6-liter, 280-hp engine will be available, according to the report.
