Power and Performance That Works
The enhanced 1.5-litre turbocharged engine produces 174 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission in 4MOTION models. Front-wheel drive configurations achieve 7.4 L/100 km combined fuel economy, while 4MOTION all-wheel drive models maintain efficiency at 9.4 L/100 km city and 7.2 L/100 km highway.
Technology Integration
The new 8-inch floating touchscreen anchors an intuitive command center. Wireless App-Connect and charging capabilities keep your devices connected and powered. The Volkswagen Digital Cockpit expands to a 10.25-inch customizable display in Comfortline and above trims, putting essential information directly in your field of view.
Safety Systems
IQ.DRIVE assistance features work together to enhance awareness and control. Travel Assist provides semi-automated driving support on highways. Front Assist with pedestrian detection, Side Assist for active blind spot monitoring, and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go take the stress out of daily driving. Park Distance Control helps navigate tight urban spaces.
Interior Space and Comfort
The Taos provides 1,866 litres of cargo space with the rear seats folded. The 60/40 split-folding rear seats with centre pass-through add flexibility for longer items while maintaining passenger comfort. The available panoramic sunroof creates an open, airy feeling throughout the cabin.
