2023 Volkswagen Taos

You don’t have to pay a lot of money to drive a quality SUV in Lewisville, Texas. Case in point: the 2023 Volkswagen Taos. The subcompact crossover may be small in size, but it’s big on value. Vincentric even ranked it the best in its class in terms of its low maintenance costs.[1] Here’s a look at what makes the 2023 Taos a great deal when you buy or lease it at Lewisville Volkswagen.

Surprisingly spacious

The VW Taos is made for singles, couples old and young, and families with 1-2 small children. As a subcompact crossover, the Taos seats four people comfortably, though you can squeeze another passenger in the rear row when needed. That’s because the Taos is impressively spacious for its segment, providing an ample 37.9 inches of legroom in the rear row.

Cargo volume is generous also, as you have 27.9 cubic feet of room to use behind the rear row or 65.9 cubic feet with those seats folded flat. That’s as much total cargo area as competitors in bigger classes have!

In addition to spaciousness, other factors that contribute to your comfort are the soft-touch CloudTex seat covers, the available ventilation function on the front seats for Texas’ hottest summer days, and the available Climatronic® Touch dual-zone automatic climate control with an advanced air filter that keeps the cabin’s atmosphere clean and cozy.

Smooth, straightforward performance

Muscle isn’t a priority for the small Taos, but you’ll find that it has enough strength to bring you to your destination swiftly. That’s because its four-cylinder engine uses a turbocharger to boost airflow and unlock greater horsepower and torque while still maintaining an economical 28 mpg in cities and 36 mpg on highways.[2]

A useful feature to have living near Lewisville is the optional 4MOTION® all-wheel drive system that replaces the basic front-wheel drivetrain. This power distribution to the rear wheels gives the Taos more stability around curves and on hills — especially when it’s rainy season in Texas.

Fun and functional design

The 2023 Taos has a standout look thanks to an eye-catching fascia and vivacious paint colors like Cornflower Blue, Kings Red Metallic, and a glossy Platinum Gray. The design of the Taos won’t look outdated in the years to come, so you can feel trendy driving this sleek, snazzy SUV.

The exterior of the Taos is also dotted with functional design elements, such as the brilliant automatic LED daytime running lights, available 19-inch sport wheels, heated washer nozzles, power-folding side mirrors, and a panoramic moonroof. The optional Adaptive Front Lighting System uses dynamic cornering lights, making it easier for you to see in Lewisville when driving at night.

Keeping you connected

Today’s drivers want to stay connected wherever they go, so the 2023 Taos helps that happen even when you’re traveling from one location to another. The Taos SE and SEL models come with the automaker’s App-Connect® smartphone integration capability, allowing you to access your compatible device’s contents through the dashboard touch screen wirelessly or via USB. Your tunes sound magnificent when you blast them on the thumping BeatsAudio® system, a highlight on the loaded SEL trim. Another highlight of the top-tier Taos SEL is Digital Cockpit Pro, a 10.25-inch display screen that lets you customize what you see while you’re driving.

Safety technology

You’ve surely heard of IQ.DRIVE by now — the brand’s signature package of driving-assistance technology. Rest assured that this in-demand upgrade is available on the 2023 VW Taos. This add-on equips the compact SUV with features like Adaptive Cruise Control, Active Blind Spot Monitor, Rear Traffic Alert, and Front Assist. Don’t want to pay extra for safety? Even the base Taos S model still comes with some of these functions, like Forward Collision Warning and Autonomous Emergency Braking.
