Overview
The 2013 Volkswagen CC Sedan is a midsize sedan offered in 6 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $30,545. For that price, it mainly competes with the Honda Accord Sedan, the Acura TL sedan, and the Hyundai Sonata sedan. Between 6 trims, the CC offers 2 powertrains. The base engine is a 2.0L Turbo Inline-4 capable of making 200 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque. If more power is required, there is also a 280 horsepower-making 3.6L V6 engine. The former engine is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission by default but can be attached to an optional 6-speed automated manual transmission. Meanwhile, the latter engine is coupled with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The CC reaches 60 mph from zero in 7.3 seconds on its base engine, which gets pumped up to 6.8 seconds with the 3.6L V6. Depending on the powertrain, the CC can manage a combined fuel economy between 21 and 25 mpg. While we're on the topic of choices, the 9 striking colors the CC comes in really pull you towards itself.
