Like a rolling sculpture, Arteon is designed to capture admiring eyes. The Arteon name is taken from the Latin word for art and alludes to the coherent, aesthetic lines of the design. Like the concept car upon which it is based, the avant-garde Arteon marks the start of a new design era for Volkswagen.

Arteon is a classic "Gran Turismo," a stylish, sporty car that is also a comfortable luxury automobile, perfect for high performance driving and long-distance touring. With premium features and a roomy cabin, Arteon is first-class transporation.

Arteon rides on a 111.7-inch wheelbase, which helps provide the cabin with excellent spaciousness. Both the front and rear seats are roomy and comfortable, with generous headroom and exceptional legroom for everyone.

Few sedans can beat the cargo capacity in the Arteon. The wide-opening rear hatch gives easy access to the vast 27.2-cubic-foot luggage compartment. If that's not enough space, the Arteon is equipped with a 60/40 split-folding rear seat.

The Arteon looks stunning standing still, but it's even more impressive in motion. With its turbocharged engine, 8-speed automatic transmission, MQB chassis, and standard XDS electronic differential lock, its German-engineered athleticism is sure to please driving enthusiasts.

The Arteon utilizes the award-winning MQB architecture and offers a variety of state-of-the-art Driver Assistance features including Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Lane Assist and Light Assist. Optional Volkswagen Car-Net works to keep owners connected with online services.

Optional 4MOTION can distribute power to all four wheels for confident driving in all weather and road conditions. 4MOTION is available on SE and SEL models, and standard on SEL Premium.

Equipped with seven airbags (including a driver-side knee airbag) and a host of state-of-the-art safety features, Arteon is designed to help prevent accidents and protect its occupants should a collision occur. The European safety organization Euro NCAP has awarded Arteon a top five-star rating after a variety of crash tests. The Arteon has not yet been crash-tested by IIHS or NHTSA.
