New for 2015 The 2015 CC sees few significant updates, following the addition of standard navigation and VW Car-Net® connected services to all CC models in 2014. The 2015 changes are limited to appearance upgrades including new optional 18-inch St. Louis wheels for the Sport trim and available 18-inch Shanghai pattern for the Executive trim line. Exterior The design team, led by Klaus Bischoff, head of design for the Volkswagen brand, was the brains behind the CC model’s overall look inside and out. At the front of the car, one’s eye is drawn to the CC’s radiator grille, Bi-Xenon headlights, and hood design, which correspond closely to the clean lines of Volkswagen’s “design DNA”—with an emphasis on horizontal lines and precise harmony between the headlights and radiator grille. Like the Passat, the CC also has an extra air intake in the lower section of the bumper.
