Cons: Only one engine available; more expensive than similar Passat[/vc_column_text][mk_divider style=”padding_space” margin_top=”10″ margin_bottom=”10″][vc_column_text]CG Says: The 2022 Volkswagen Arteon gets the 300-horsepower engine from the Golf R along with a new 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The Arteon sees a few trim level changes with the base front-wheel drive SE now having R-Line features, and all-wheel drive becomes standard on SEL R-Line. The SEL Premium R-Line’s equipment is unchanged beyond the new powertrain. The Volkswagen Arteon is a premium midsize 4-door hatchback sedan that offers a bit more cargo versatility. It’s similar in size to VW’s mainstream Passat midsize sedan, but it has sleeker, flashier styling and notably higher price tags. Available safety features include autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind-spot alert, lane-keep assist, and automatic high-beam headlights. The Arteon doesn’t sacrifice rear-seat room for style. Although the Passat is a better value, Arteon offers the grace and feel of a premium sport sedan for less money.[/vc_column_text][mk_divider style=”padding_space” margin_top=”10″ margin_bottom=”10″][mk_content_box heading=”The Facts”][mk_table el_class=”new-review-specs”]
