Volkswagen Genuine Roof bars
(not illustrated)
Well-equipped on the move – thanks to the Volkswagen Accessories roof bar
systems. The basis for this are the perfectly-fitting aerodynamically-shaped
aluminium profile roof bars to which, for example, surf board, bicycle, ski and
snowboard holders or the practical roof boxes can be attached to the vehicle roof
in no time at all. The roof bars are pre-assembled and not only City Crash
1
tested
but have also passed the even stricter standards of the Volkswagen City Crash
Plus test. The easy-to-install aero profile minimises wind noise. Only for the
Passat Saloon

01 Volkswagen Genuine Supporting rods
The perfectly fitting supporting rods are made of aerodynamically designed
aluminium profiles and are not only City Crash
1
tested but have also passed the
even stricter standards of the Volkswagen City Crash Plus test. They serve as the
basic system for all attachments and are robust yet light and, above all, can be
quickly attached to the roof rail. The anti-theft locking equipment protects you
against any nasty surprises. Only for the Passat Estate. For cars without roof rails,
the roof bars form the system basis (see below).

City crash test. Because safer is better.
Volkswagen‘s in-house crash tests are carried out at speeds higher than those required
by DIN 75302, ISO/PAS 11154 and the “City Crash” test – Because Volkswagen believes
that its own “City Crash Plus” at 30 km/h and a 20 % overload on the roof is more realistic
than the standards set by DIN and ISO. The City Crash test simulates a rear-end collision
in the inner city at a moderate speed of approximately 17 km/h. Although carried out by
“Stiftung Warentest” and the “ADAC”, it is not a legal requirement.
