I think the Edmunds reviewer did a great job describing what the Taos is. I love the handling, space, tech, fuel economy and looks. I have the AWD version and have averaged 29 mpg to date. The transmission is lazy with a bias for fuel economy, but I'm used to the DSG from my Golf GTI, so I know how to take over and get the most out of the engine. I just really love the car and am happy with the purchase. I'm not an SUV person, and this car is great.

This is possibly the worst car ever made in the history of cars. The engine shuts off at lights (no fix). The brakes wear very quickly. Replaced mine at 21k, and paid OUT OF POCKET because scammy VW is not willing to recall this serious and life threatening issue. They were at 2ml, when they are supposed to be 11ml. Just replaced the engine fan, and HEAD GASKET? Like, why is that even a thing?! Luckily those 2 things were under warranty. The video console blinks out when you are reversing. The car has no pick up and is no fun to drive. The only good thing about this car is the color.

Never thought about buying an SUV

We bought this Taos on the first business day of 2024. It's a hard change for me from the 2013 Jetta we also have. BUT, my wife likes it. When looking, we tried Equinox, Trax, Malibu. My wife had one new requirement since we now have people to ride in the back seat. That was a vent for the heater/AC that could be controlled by the back seat passengers. The only one that had it was the Taos. The Taos also has something even the Jetta didn't have. The front part of the driver's seat can be lowered manually ever so slightly. This helps with my wife's hips since their is so much metal in her hips and back. She also likes the back up camera because she doesn't have to try to turn to look. NOW FOR THE DISLIKES!! Don't like the screen in the middle of the dashboard! Too old to try to learn this stuff! Where is the CD player? Last dislike-where is the suicide strap above the driver's door?? Sorta neat though-two Volkswagen's in the driveway-both dark blue.
