The 2021 to 2022 Volkswagen Passat received a four-star overall rating from NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program for US-market vehicles. In frontal crash testing, the Passat earned three stars. Side crash protection was rated at five stars, while rollover resistance received four stars. The vehicle also achieved five stars in side pole crash testing. NHTSA applies these ratings across model years until a significant redesign occurs, so this assessment covers the entire 2021 to 2022 range.
