2025 Volkswagen Taos Consumer Reviews
Pricing
New rear breaks after 12,000 miles
Required rear breaks @ $795 with only 12k in miles on the car. This following numerous engine and fuel pump alerts over the past year. Total garbage. The dealer said they use small brake pads in the rear that wear out quickly and better Tiguan brakes in the front. WHY? So I can pay $795 for service/parts fees?? What a scam.
Stylish small SUV
Drives very well, feels secure on the road, transmission in eco mode is a little tricky to drive smoothly. Interior has the look and feel of an SUV costing thousands more. Not just all black plastic.

Surprised
The Taos has been a pleasant surprise. The fuel economy is better than advertised. I'm getting 39 to 40 mpg consistently. For a small SUV it has plenty of passenger room and a good amount of cargo space. Nice safety features and a well designed interior. I'm glad I came back to Volkswagen.

Great Car
I like just about everything on the car; from the engine response, handling, braking, and gas mileage. What could use some improvement is the road noise. It's a little loud on rough pavement or black top. It could be the tires. I bought the car new and it came with a tire brand I've never heard of. I will try a different brand when the tires need to be replaced.

Perfect for me! Not so great!
Lots of upgrades are standard. Purchased the SE. Upgraded seats are very comfortable and heat up well with the seat warmers. Added AWD. Handles well. Heated steering wheel. New review. Poor acceleration, no power, poor gas mileage. Too much empty space. Wouldn't lease again. Tested other SUVs. Came back to the Taos, perfect size, not too long. Seats five comfortably. Back up camera, blind spot mirrors, emergency need to stop all standard features. Good sound system. Excellent customer service by Niello Volkswagen here in Sacramento. 18" Continental wheels. Drives like a more expensive car. Purchased the Pylite Grey with black interior with hints of cobalt blue accent trim on the dash. Love my new car.
