    Exactly. They are estate cars.

    Shooting Brake these days just means Fancy Estate Car.

    Made in the Passat factory but the wheel base is different.

    It's not like the chassis starts it's life as a Passat then they bolt on a few things to turn it into an Arteon.
    Arteon & T-Roc

    I hope the "Shooting Brake" has the "Gun Rack" on the Options List. I'll have mine in Brushed Matte Black or Arctic Puce.
    Mine - Mustang GT MY20 - Carbonised Grey - "Nicky"
    Hers - T-Roc 140 TSI Sport MY21 - Reveena Blue - "Rocky"
    Previous - Passat 206TSI MY17 - Night Blue
