Introducing the new Arteon in El Paso, Texas
The first look is long, and followed by a second one of nearly equal length. It’s part automobile, part sculpture. And it’s all yours. Learn more about the new Arteon in El Paso now.
Arteon rides on a 111.7-inch wheelbase, which helps provide the cabin with excellent spaciousness. Both the front and rear seats are roomy and comfortable, with generous headroom and exceptional legroom for everyone.
The Arteon looks stunning standing still, but it’s even more impressive in motion. With its turbocharged engine, 8-speed automatic transmission, MQB chassis, and standard XDS electronic differential lock, its German-engineered athleticism is sure to please driving enthusiasts.
Arteon is a classic “Gran Turismo,” a stylish, sporty car that is also a comfortable luxury automobile, perfect for high performance driving and long-distance touring. With premium features and a roomy cabin, Arteon is first-class transporation.
Optional 4MOTION can distribute power to all four wheels for confident driving in all weather and road conditions. 4MOTION is available on SE and SEL models, and standard on SEL Premium.
The Arteon utilizes the award-winning MQB architecture and offers a variety of state-of-the-art Driver Assistance features including Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Lane Assist and Light Assist. Optional Volkswagen Car-Net works to keep owners connected with online services.
Equipped with seven airbags (including a driver-side knee airbag) and a host of state-of-the-art safety features, Arteon is designed to help prevent accidents and protect its occupants should a collision occur. The European safety organization Euro NCAP has awarded Arteon a top five-star rating after a variety of crash tests. The Arteon has not yet been crash-tested by IIHS or NHTSA.
Few sedans can beat the cargo capacity in the Arteon. The wide-opening rear hatch gives easy access to the vast 27.2-cubic-foot luggage compartment. If that’s not enough space, the Arteon is equipped with a 60/40 split-folding rear seat.
Like a rolling sculpture, Arteon is designed to capture admiring eyes. The Arteon name is taken from the Latin word for art and alludes to the coherent, aesthetic lines of the design. Like the concept car upon which it is based, the avant-garde Arteon marks the start of a new design era for Volkswagen.
Classic fastback design
The roofline slopes downward, merging seamlessly with the back, conveying style, and performance.
Bold exterior styling
The fastback look is only part of what makes the New Arteon so stunning. There’s the muscular stance, frameless windows, and a wide chrome grille that blends perfectly into the LEDs to create an unforgettable front fascia.
Sport seats
The front sport seats are as stylish as they are comfortable. And if you add the available ventilated and driver-massaging feature, you may never want to get out.
Turbocharged engine
The standard 2.0L TSI® turbocharged engine kicks out 268 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. And you can use that power well, thanks to an 8-speed automatic transmission.¹
DCC® adaptive chassis control
DCC lets you choose the driving mode that best fits your style. Select from either Normal, Comfort, or Sport to find the one that feels right.
4MOTION® all-wheel drive
As conditions change, available 4MOTION® distributes power between the front and rear wheels as needed to help optimize traction and stability.
1 Preliminary specifications subject to change.
The standard and available features on the New Arteon help explain why it's justifiably called a premium sedan. Within the plush and spacious interior are a long list of things that delight both driver and passenger.
Interior amenities
Inside, elegance and space are plentiful. Listen to your favorite music on the available Dynaudio® premium sound system, and find your preferred temperature with 3-zone automatic climate control. And that’s just for starters.
Volkswagen Digital Cockpit
Tech plays a major role in the Arteon. The available Volkswagen Digital Cockpit displays your information digitally in a high-resolution, customizable display.
Volkswagen Car-Net® App-Connect
VW Car-Net App-Connect allows you to connect your compatible smartphone with Apple CarPlay™, Android Auto™, or MirrorLink® to access select apps on the touchscreen display. From streaming music to mobile apps, it can be accessed on the touchscreen.²
Power tilting/sliding panoramic sunroof
This available feature lets a world of light into the cabin, making an already inviting interior even more so.
