Yes, as long as you have the 4-Door model 2017 VW Passat and there are no existing rails or crossbars on the roof, the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack # RR72MR that you referenced is a confirmed fit and will work great. This will provide you with a quiet, aerodynamic roof rack that features a sleek, OEM look and a weight capacity of 165 pounds. All of the hardware necessary for the simple clamp-on installation is included.

I have attached a short video demonstration on this roof rack, along with the written installation instructions that you can also check out.
