Think you should quote how many vehicles per year average have been sold... Passat name plate has been around for a VERY long time, Try 1973. Mondeo only since 1993...
Come back to us when you have a yearly average comparison...
Maybe just keep that number to Europe... so you can compare apples with apples, as both nameplates have been around in the EU for the entire time.
Or if its too much trouble... keep the passat out of the argument. Yes, it has sold lots, yes, it has more power, YES, it is a LOT more expensive, for a similar or lower speced vehicle, which according to many, doesnt handle as good. I havnt driven mondeo, so cant say...
