The all-new compact SUVW is more than big enough for all your adventures, thanks to its excellent packaging efficiency. The German-engineered Taos comes available with a wide range of distinctive features.
A vibrant blue 2022 Volkswagen Taos is shown from the front three-quarter view. Another image shows the rear cargo area of the Taos with the liftgate open, revealing ample space, with two people packing items. A third image shows the interior dashboard with the digital cockpit and infotainment screen.
A Fresh, Fun Look
The bold front end, featuring standard LED headlights and available Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS), gives the Taos an unmistakably VW look. With short overhangs and a long wheelbase, Taos' tidy proportions contain impressive space for passengers and cargo.
Appropriate all-season or winter-weather tires are required for driving in cold, snowy or icy weather conditions. Drivers must pay full attention to the road and safe driving at all times.
