2010 Volkswagen NMS: VW's North American Market Sedan Spied


Brenda Priddy and her associates managed to scoop a prototype model of Volkswagen's forthcoming North American market mid-size sedan as it was being transferred into a company truck. As you can see from the pictures that were published by 'LeftlaneNews', the test mule's front end displays a mixture of styling elements from both the Jetta and the latest Golf. Codenamed NMS which stands for "New Midsize Sedan", the vehicle will be built at the German company's first U.S. production facility in more than 20 years, located in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

The "NMS" is supposed to be roughly the same size as the current VW Passat but with a much lower price tag. According to an earlier announcement made by VW officials during a presentation in Berlin, Germany this past October, the "NMS" will come equipped with the firm's latest Fuel-Stratified Injection (FSI) gasoline and TDI diesel engine units, mated to a dual-clutch transmission.

And since the mid-size sedan will be designed to cater the specific needs of U.S. consumers, VW says that it will feature "spacious legroom", a "large trunk volume" and a large number of well-sized cupholders (...).
