I ended up purchasing a fully loaded SEL 4Motion Taos and really like it. The sunroof/moonroof is a big hit amongst the backseat passengers and the Beats speakers provide a good sound! The backseat is quite spacious and felt larger than the Tiguan. The turbo engine provides some pep, but can also be a bit jerky. Once you know this about the car, you’ll get used to driving it with less/more acceleration, accordingly. I wish the car had front parking sensors and a better backup camera. The Taos lacks these safety features, which is something I didn’t think to ask about (dumb on my part). It’s also missing an automatic liftgate, which isn’t a dealbreaker but definitely something to consider if you’ve got your hands full with groceries and kids. All in all, the Taos is a great car!

Had this vehicle just over 2 months and it has been flawless. fit and finish is great, and comfort is superb and i am 6'"3. this is one of the smoothest running vehicles i have ever owned and I have had many. if you are someone who does your own maintenance you will love this vehicle, it is very easy DIY. highly recommend this vehicle.

I've been driving this car for a month after owning a 2020 GTI— this doesn't perform like a GTI, but it's surprisingly good and the transmission is excellent. I recommend test driving in Sport mode (automatic with sport shift settings) as that's where it feels most responsive. Mileage is excellent as well— about 28 overall in my mostly city driving mix.

Boomer return to VW with a Taos S

About 8 weeks and 1.5K miles on my new 24' Taos S, my first turbo so takes some getting use to (Commander 4x4 w/5.7L V8 went to a friend). and I knew the FWD would be like some 80s and 90s cars I had. I was looking for brand new and the Taos has easy entry/exit and nice seat height. It's a bit more wind noise but not so bad. It has a nice solid feel. Great driving position, great cargo. Overall much more good than bad. Just did a Raleigh-DC-and-back in one day. just about 3.75 hours each way, plus 30 minutes to load up 5 dining room chairs and 6 paintings. 39.5 mpg avg for the day on regular grade gasoline. I was able to get within $50 of Edmunds price (blue) And so far the AC has kept up fine. BTW, I owned 2 other VWs; a 1958 Beetle and a 1970 pop-up camper. I have fond memories of both. UPDATE: After ten months and 6500 mixed miles I love this car even more. I keep it in sport mode almost exclusively. Not quite fun, but never disappoints.

I had a 2022 SEL. Loved the car but had a few first year bugs. Not serious enough to change my opinion of the car. Went to dealer to get warranty work done and the manager said we want you to be totally happy so since the new ones have 0% interest, I was able to roll in some neg equity because I never put money down, if I do, I just pay cash, and my payment went down. What a deal. Happy to see dealers and manufacturers stand behind the product. Very UNLIKE my Subaturd.
