According to foreign media reports, Volkswagen launched the new models in the future will gradually stop using the naturally aspirated engine. Development of the newly appointed head of Volkswagen, said the public company will retain the naturally aspirated engine only on existing models, but not for the future launch of new models equipped with a naturally aspirated engine.
Recently, Volkswagen has announced that Volkswagen's Passat models will be 1.8-liter turbocharged engine, rather than using a 5-cylinder naturally aspirated engine. Volkswagen Beetle and Jetta (Super Proton) models will also abandon the use of 5-cylinder naturally aspirated engine. In addition, for the seventh generation Golf will be 2015 models listed in the United States, the public will no longer equip them with the naturally aspirated engine . And currently equipped on the Volkswagen Passat, Volkswagen CC and Volkswagen Touareg 3.6-liter naturally aspirated engine will also be a new small-displacement turbocharged six-cylinder engine replaced.
Compared with the same turbocharged engine displacement naturally aspirated engine that can output more power, higher fuel efficiency, is the ideal way to enhance the current model fuel economy. Volkswagen models after facelift for its turbocharged engine, its fuel economy of various products will reach new heights.

Seems a little out of date for the UK
If you check the website you can only get the new Passat in the UK with a turbo diesel.
Not even a petrol engine in the line up never mind a n/a engine.

New Passat is.... well new. No petrol engined cars yet but they are coming. Well there is the GTE which is a 1.4 turbo petrol with an electric motor (hence GTE). It's a hybrid.
But aren't most petrols even small capacity turbos now?
Take an Audi A3 as an example - there aren't any non-turbo engines? And soon there will even be 3-cylinder petrol engines in use. Same for a Golf. I guess the smaller cars like the Up! use some non turbo engines.

Depends on the market of course, I predict that a petrol engine will be offered in Australia even if the (quite popular here) current V6 NA engine is deprecated. I'd add that the new model will likely come to Australia some time after its UK launch, typically this can be 6 to 12 months later from what I've seen. Some places (like Hong Kong) do not allow diesel engined passenger cars and other markets (Australia, US) prefer petrol. The UK market is skewed by fuel costs and taxation.
