Sporty, fun, and packed with useful technology, it’s easy to fall in love with the 2024 Volkswagen Taos. This five-passenger SUV is small enough to maneuver through traffic and squeeze into downtown parking spaces, yet roomy enough to offer plenty of space onboard. It also has features that build comfort, convenience, and performance into every drive.
1. Excellent Powertrain
Every Taos comes equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine with 158 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. Most versions of the Taos come with an eight-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. This fuel-efficient SUV gets an impressive 36 miles per gallon on the highway and 28 miles per gallon on city streets, saving you money at the gas pump.
2. Digital Cockpit
Slide behind the wheel of the Taos and you’ll find that instead of a traditional instrument cluster, data about your ride is displayed digitally and in high resolution. You can customize the display, from speed and travel time to navigation assistance, using the available VW Digital Cockpit Pro feature. The gearshift knob is wrapped in leather, and the multi-function steering wheel is both heated and wrapped in leatherette.
The driver’s seat can be adjusted in six different ways, and several optional features build in additional convenience, including available keyless access.
3. Driver Assistance
The Taos is equipped with IQ.DRIVE, a suite of driver-assistance technologies aimed at enhancing your safety on the road. Adaptive Cruise Control, Active Blind Spot Monitor, Rear Traffic Alert, and Lane Assist are all features offered as part of IQ.DRIVE. This is an innovative system that takes the stress out of driving and allows you to stay focused on the road ahead. The Taos also comes with a standard Rear-View Camera System.
4. Convenient App
Drivers of the Taos can use the myVW app to keep convenient tools and information about their vehicle at their fingers. This app can be used to track your vehicle’s service schedule and history and make roadside assistance requests. Activating VW Car-Net, the subscription-based in-vehicle connectivity system, unlocks even more features and allows you to use the app to remotely start the Taos and determine its last parked location, among other functions.
5. Tech-Friendly Features
Two front USB-C data ports come standard on the Taos. So does App-Connect smartphone integration via USB. Wireless charging capability is available. This vehicle is also equipped with Bluetooth technology.
