I think 2800 is inaccurate. I remember noticing on the wife's Passat that it was lower than the Jetta, and the Jetta isn't that high. I think it's barely over 2k. I drive the Jetta, so I can't run out and check.

Took a Passat GLS TDI wagon for a spin last week and it was clocking just over 2 grand at 70 MPH from what I remember.

Mine clocks 2000 @ 70mph
just under 2400 @ 80mph.

smooth, effortless highway cruising
