Volkswagen CC 2009

The new CC-Volkswagen is desinged and engineered to blend sports car dynamics and dimensions with sedan comfort.

2009 CC: VOLKSWAGEN'S ALL-NEW STYLISH COUPE-LIKE SEDAN

The all-new CC – Volkswagen's stylish new offering has

been designed and engineered to blend sports car dynamics and dimensions with sedan

comfort in a sophisticated package. The CC features a masculine shoulder line, which

visually connects the front wheel wells to the taillights, providing the emotional and

expressive stance of a sports coupe with all the convenience of a sedan.

Distinguished Exterior

In addition to its dramatically lowered, rear-swept roofline and well-planted

stance, other distinguishing exterior cues on the CC include: frameless doors; flowing

lines in the side profile; larger, more prominent brand-specific face with bolder cross-strut

chrome grille design; a large panoramic power vent sunroof that reaches out to the

roof rails and covers the entire forward portion of the roof to the B-pillars (standard on all

but Sport); and 17- or 18-inch multi-spoke wheel designs (four designs in all).

Sophisticated Interior

The interior of the four-passenger CC carries the same recognized virtues of its

Volkswagen brethren with additional details.

Four ergonomically formed sport seats that are positioned to sit low offer

improved lateral support to enhance the feeling of connectivity between driver,

passengers and machine without sacrificing comfort. The split folding rear seats also

ensure utility when needed, and they are separated by a center roll-top covered fold-down

console for drinks and an emergency medical kit.

The new navigation system with MDI (Media Device Interface) incorporates

intuitive color touch-screen control of onboard systems and personal devices; a 32GB

hard disk supported navigation system; and rear parking assistance system that displays

rearview camera images.

A leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter are standard equipment as are

chrome finished dial appointments, and full brushed aluminum trim is standard on the

Luxury and both VR6 models. The Sport trim package incorporates V-Tex leatherette

seating surfaces, while all others carry leather-skinned sport seats.

 Advanced Powertrain and Chassis

The CC Sport and Luxury models are equipped with Volkswagen's 2.0T inline

four-cylinder engine carrying a turbocharger with intercooler and double overhead

camshafts. The advanced four-valve per cylinder powerplant also is equipped with

variable valve timing and a direct-injection fuel delivery system, both of which contribute

to optimum fuel efficiency.

Mated with either a six-speed manual (Sport only) or six-speed automatic

transmission with Tiptronic ® , the 2.0T delivers 200-horsepower at 5100 rpm, and 207 lb.-ft.

of torque between 1800 and 5000 rpm. The 2.0T delivers on its promise of

performance with efficiency by achieving fuel economy of 2 1-mpg in the city, and 31-

mpg on the highway with the manual, and 1 9-city/ 2 9-highway with the automatic –

corresponding estimated 0-to-60-mph performance is a very capable 6.9- and 7.4-seconds

respectively.

VR6 Sport and VR6 4Motion models incorporate a 24-valve 3.6L DOHC V6 – a

refined version of Volkswagen's famous narrow-angle V6 engine with cylinder banks

that create a “V” angle of just 10.6 degrees resulting in a more compact sized powerplant.

The 3.6L engine – which also incorporates variable valve timing, variable intake

lengths, and direct-injection technologies for optimized power and efficiency – is mated

to a six-speed automatic with Tiptronic and delivers 280-horsepower at 6200 rpm and

265 lb.-ft of torque at 2750 rpm. Zero-to-60-mph performance is estimated at an

exceptional 6.6-seconds; and fuel efficiency is 18-mpg in the city and 27-mpg on the

highway.

All CC models are equipped with a specifically tuned sport suspension and

electromechanical power steering with dual-pinions for exceptional, performance-oriented

ride and handling characteristics.

A sophisticated front McPherson concept suspension with triangular wishbone

configuration, coil springs, telescopic self-leveling shocks and stabilizer bar ensures

balance, comfort and agility in all driving scenarios, as does a fully independent four-link

rear with coil springs, telescopic shocks and stabilizer bar.

Safety Features

The CC is designed and executed to deliver outstanding safety performance and

comes with a host of safety technologies.

Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP), including four-wheel anti-lock brakes

(ABS) with vented front and solid rear discs, Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR) and Yaw

Control come standard. Brake Assist (BA) and Electronic Differential Locking (EDL)

also come standard. All contribute to exceptional stability and control on all kinds of

roads and situations where even the best of drivers might struggle to keep their cars on

the road. The addition of 4Motion all-wheel-drive on the uplevel VR6 takes vehicle

dynamics to an even higher level.

In addition to ESP (which is standard on all 2009 model year Volkswagen

offerings), the CC comes equipped with standard driver and front passenger advanced

multistage front airbags; driver and front passenger side-thorax airbags; head curtain

airbags (front and rear); three-point safety belts front and rear; emergency locking

retractors for all seating positions; optimized front head restraints; safety belt power

pretensioners at the driver and front passenger positions; safety belt load limiters for

driver, front passenger and rear outboard seating positions; tire pressure monitoring

system; and rear seat LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) anchorage and

top tether child seat attachments. A rear passenger side-thorax airbag system with safety

belt pretensioners is optional.

Bi-Xenon headlamps incorporated with an Adaptive Forward Lighting System

(AFS) for improved visibility is standard with the 3.6L.

Warranties

For added assurance, the new CC comes with 24-hour Roadside Assistance for four

years or 50,000 miles (whichever occurs first), plus new vehicle warranties including:

  • Five-year/60,000 mile (whichever occurs first) Powertrain Limited Warranty.
  • Three-year/36,000 mile (whichever occurs first) New Vehicle Limited Warranty

with wear and tear items and adjustments.

  • 12-year unlimited distance Limited Warranty against corrosion perforation.

Also standard with the CC is Volkswagen's Carefree Maintenance Program. With

this program there are no charges for the scheduled maintenance described in the CC's

maintenance booklet for the length of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty—three years or

36,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
