PERFORMANCE

First and foremost, your SUV needs to be ready for the miles and miles of adventures you have planned. By combining sporty performance with efficient engineering, the Volkswagen Taos is more than prepared for any plans you have in mind.

Built for Freedom

Beneath the hood, the 1.5L turbo engine is raring to get moving. Its athletic output is the heart and soul of fun drives, generating 158 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. The standard 8-speed automatic transmission harnesses that energy for smooth acceleration onto the highway.

The VW Taos aims to help you save time and money at the pump, too. When properly equipped, it achieves an EPA-estimated 28 city/36 highway MPG.^* You can pass by the gas station confidently and keep your trip going longer thanks to its precision engine design.

Precision Control

If you plan on heading off the beaten path during your travels, the available 4MOTION® all-wheel drive system is for you. This advanced system optimizes the power sent to both the front and rear axles, ensuring that you’ll have the grip and traction you need for dirt roads and other terrain. It even comes with four selectable drive modes. Each mode adjusts performance based on situation:

Snow Mode

On-Road Mode

Off-Road Mode

Off-Road Custom Mode

INTERIOR

You’ve likely heard it before: It’s what’s on the inside that counts. The VW Taos is a clear example of what your car’s interior can do for you. Whether you’re traveling solo or bringing friends along, there’s plenty to get excited about.

Space

A roomy cabin is better for everyone. Having extra space to stretch into as you settle in for the long drive is a plus, both for the driver and their riders. You’ll find plenty of room in the 99.5 cubic feet of passenger volume so everyone can relax during your trip.

Dimension	1^st Row	2^nd Row
Headroom	40.7 in.	39.8 in.
Legroom	40.1 in.	37.9 in.
Shoulder Room	56.5 in.	55.2 in.

If you’re transporting lots of moving boxes, you can easily fold down the rear seat. This will give you up to 65.9 cubic feet to stow away your things securely.

Available Features

Among its massive selection of features, the VW Taos has plenty of enticing ones available. Up front, the available 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat lets you find the perfect position—it even features lumbar support. Available heating and ventilation for the front row will keep you comfortable in any weather.

Passengers in the second row can join in the fun as well. The available BeatsAudio® premium sound system uses professional-grade speakers to turn your ride into a roaming concert. You can then match the mood of your playlist with the available ambient lighting system.
