The gasoline you'll need for your 2006 Volkswagen Passat will depend on the type of engine it has. If you have a 2.0L 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, you should use premium 91 octane gasoline. However, if your vehicle is equipped with the larger 3.6L V6 engine, you can use regular 87 octane gasoline. The fuel tank capacity for this car is 18.5 US gallons. The 2.0L models are more fuel-efficient, with an MPG rating of 22 in the city and 28 on the highway, while the V6 models get 19 MPG in the city and 24 on the highway.
