2024 Volkswagen Taos SEL 4dr SUV AWD (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 7AM)

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.

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.

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.
