It was introduced in 1981 while production starting in 1984 for Europe and 1985 for China.
The use of the 'Santana' badge rather than 'Passat' echoes the use of different names for the sedan versions of the and. In, it was also known as the Volkswagen Quantum. In, it was named the Volkswagen Corsar, while in it was sold as the Volkswagen Carat. In and other South American countries it was known as the Santana, while the Passat Variant B2 wagon was marketed as the Volkswagen Quantum. In, the Santana name was dropped in 1985 (with the exception of, where the Santana nameplate was retained) and the car was sold as a Passat.
European production ended in 1988 while Latin American production continued until 2006. Chinese production of the three box sedan continued until December 2012. The final Chinese versions are named Santana Vista, and the name Santana is used on a new 2013 model, slightly smaller and based on the and. Santana Wagon The Santana's biggest success was in China. The Santana (B2) had been built in China on a small scale trial basis by the Shanghai Tractor Automobile Corporation (STAC), predecessor of the group, since 1982. The first 100 cars were built from CKD kits delivered from Germany.
The first Volkswagen Santana was assembled in April 1983 by a team from Shanghai Auto. Volkswagen signed a contract with STAC, along with the China National Automotive Industry Corporation (CNAIC) and the to form the in October 1984. Production commenced in September 1985 while the first assembly line of the Santana started a month later.
In September 1986, the 10,000th Santana was built in China. The car and venture laid the ground-works for China's mass motorization. The drive to fully localize production became the impetus for the Chinese auto parts industry: In 1986, the quota of made-in-China parts was below six percent. In 1995, the local content quota stood at 89 percent. Initially launched with a 1.6-litre, the Santana was updated with a 1.8-litre petrol in 1987, first available in the Santana Variant station wagon introduced by Shanghai in 1986. The first Santanas were all originally equipped with a four-speed manual transmission. The 1.6 remained available in the sedan until as late as 2006 where a 2.0 litre engine replaced it.
This vehicle is very popular as a taxicab, having been in service over 30 years. The Santana has had a number of updated features added since the original 1985 model. Some updated features the Santana has been include with are electronic fuel injection system, a 5-speed manual, a third brake light, improved back seats, hydraulic clutch, and CD compatible radios, brakes with. Production for the B2 Santana was discontinued in 1995 although new models sold as the 'Santana Classic' were available from the model years 2004, 2006 and 2007. As of May 2011 the original German designed Santana (both sedan and Variant versions) was still sold in China alongside the updated Santana Vista, and are still popular with taxi and police fleets, as well as with private buyers.
A 1.6-litre version of the Santana Vista (1,595 cc, 70 kW or 95 PS) has been added to the bottom of the lineup to further boost sales. There were 3,213,710 units made since CKD production began in 1983 up until May 2009. Nonetheless, Shanghai Volkswagen Automotive decided to discontinue the Santana in 2012. Production is still continuing in China with the Santana sedan and Gran Santana hatchback. 1984 Nissan Santana Gi5 Nissan's Santana was changed for Japan with a right hand drive wiper layout (parking on the passenger side) which, as well as a new linkage mechanism, also required a new bonnet pressing as there were recesses in the trailing edge for the wiper pivots.
VW-built cars, in common with some of the maker's other models at this time, such as the MKII Golf, had the same LHD wiper pattern regardless of steering wheel location. At introduction, the Nissan Santana was available with three different engines: A 100 PS (74 kW) 1781 cc four (Li, Gi), a 110 PS (81 kW) 1,994 cc five (Gi5, Xi5) and a 72 PS (53 kW) 1,588 cc turbodiesel four (Lt, Gt Diesel Turbo). All came with a five-speed manual transmission as standard, while the gasoline engines were also available with a three-speed automatic. The Nissan Santana was 5 mm narrower than its German counterparts, so as to avoid a massive Japanese tax on cars wider than 1690 mm. Additionally, the grille and headlights were unique to the M30 Santana. In May 1985 the Xi5 Autobahn version was added to the lineup, offering velour sports seats, electric sunroof and 14-inch alloy wheels. In January 1987 the Santana received a facelift, with a new fascia and new larger bumpers.
The Turbodiesel was discontinued, leaving only gasoline-engined versions. The 1.8-litre Gi version was down to 91 PS (67 kW), while the Li and Gi5 equipment grades were dropped. The Xi5 Autobahn was now available with a new engine, however, as a DOHC version of the 2-litre five appeared with 140 PS (103 kW). With sales, originally aimed at 4,000-5,000 per month, only having reached 50,000 over seven years, Nissan ended production in October 1989. Sales of remaining stock continued until May 1990.
Instead of renewing the production license, they began selling the new third-generation through their dealer network. As Volkswagen and Toyota began cooperating in 1991, sales of Volkswagens through Nissan dealers came to a halt. Santana (Brazil) (1984–2006) The Santana entered production in Brazil in June, 1984. It was originally sold as a 4-door and 2-door, but a named Santana Quantum (later simply Quantum) was launched in July 1985.
The 2-door saloon was exclusive to Brazil. Santana Quantum GLS in Chile The engine range consisted of two versions of the familiar 1.8-litre, running on ethanol or petrol. In May 1988 it gained the option of a 2.0-litre engine (petrol or ethanol). Thus equipped they were known as Santana/Quantum 2000.
Transmissions included a 4-speed manual (for the first two years), 5-speed manual (first as an option but made standard in 1987), and for the top line CD (later GLS) a 3-speed automatic. In 1991, then engaged in a with Ford called, decided to retain the Passat (B2) shaped saloon and wagon instead of building the newer third-generation Passat (B3). Thorough changes to the bodyshell, boot line, front and rear guards, meant it looked considerably more modern than its predecessor, if not quite at par with the B3.
Under the terms of AutoLatina, this 'new' Santana was also marketed as the in Brazil and as the Ford Galaxy in Argentina. The 3-door (later 5-door) station wagon was sold as the. 1991 also marked the introduction of and, both firsts for the Brazilian car industry. It received a small facelift for 1994, and another more extensive one in 1998. In 2002, the Quantum was taken out of production, and then, after more than two decades and years of dropping sales, the Santana was retired from the range in June 2006. It sold 548,494 units during its production run.

1986 Volkswagen Corsar Variant for Mexican market. The Santana was launched to the Mexican car market in February 1984 as the all-new Corsar CD. Assembled at VW Mexico's Puebla factory mostly with German-sourced components, for the brand it was intended to be the top-of-range offer for the domestic car market at the time, a mechanically reliable while slightly luxurious medium sedan.
The 1.8-litre 85 hp (63 kW) carbureted engine was the only drive choice for the whole Corsar lineup through its lifetime. It was definitely a high fuel-saving option toward its local medium-luxury competitors: Chrysler LeBaron 'K', Chevrolet Celebrity, Ford Grand Marquis, Renault 18. In 1984 and 1985, the Corsar was marketed only as 4-door sedan, the same European Santana body (no Passat Variant body was offered here for those first years), matching the appearance of the USA's market version (badged there as VW Quantum). At the time, the Corsar and Quantum saloons shared the same front grille design, featuring four squared headlight units (two beams for the right and left sides with amber-coloured rectangular emergency indicators below each) rather than the Santana's grille design. Regarding equipment, only one trim level was available, which included: 13” alloy wheels, 185/70 tires, velour upholstery (gray or blue coloured starting in 1985), rear seat headrests, AM/FM stereo cassette Radio with 4 speakers, tachometer, power steering, anti-theft alarm. Air condition was available as an option, as well as 4-speed or 3-speed gearboxes. The following colours were available for 1984: Mars Red, Alpine White, Jade Green Metallic, Cosmos Silver Metallic and Graphite Metallic.
For 1986, the Corsar's product range received several novelties, somewhat similar to the North-American Quantum line. First, the headlights and front grille design was updated to match the same featured by the correspondent European Passat line.
New body colours and upholstery types were now offered, a new 5-speed manual gearbox replaced the previous 4-speed one. Some new features were now available as option equipment, mainly power door locks and windows and black leather upholstery. In March 1986, the Passat wagon body was now offered within the local lineup, being badged here as Corsar Variant (matching the European Passat Variant or Quantum Wagon, as known in USA and Brazil). The 1987 and 1988 Corsar lineup remained mostly unchanged, just bringing out then that the alloy wheels where now offered as part of the option package, with a set of steel-made wheels wearing full covers being now the standard ones. By mid-1988, a limited edition Corsar was released (both saloon and Variant version).
It was distinguished for its Black and Silver double-tone paintwork, black leather upholstery and full equipment. Finally, by the end of 1988, the Corsar was discontinued from Volkswagen Mexico lineup, since production of its German counterpart -the Santana/Passat Mk2- stopped in Europe (where most of the matching parts came from, and rather started producing the next gen Passat Mk3). Also, the local assembly lines were needed by VW to increase the production run of the Mk2 Golf/Jetta for USA and Canada exports.
In Mexico, the Corsar is still well remembered as a sleek design, good reputation vehicle. Carat (Argentina) (1987–1991) The Santana 4-door sedan started production in Argentina in June, 1987 as the Carat, manufactured by Volkswagen Argentina S.A. (San Justo/, ).
No 2-door or estate versions were produced. Production ended in 1991.
