2024 Volkswagen Taos

Car shopping takes a lot of time, so let’s start with the bottom line: The 2024 Volkswagen Taos is an affordable compact SUV whose fuel efficiency and roomy interior make it a fitting choice for families on a budget in Lewisville, Texas. Our Denton County dealership wants to give you a closer look at this model and invite you for a test drive.

A step up from a sedan

The Taos is a great choice for families in Lewisville who desire the efficiency and feel of a sedan but need a bit more headroom and rear-seat spaciousness for teenagers. This crossover shares many similarities with VW cars like the Jetta. For example, the 2024 Taos uses the same turbocharged four-cylinder engine that’s on the 2024 Jetta, plus the same eight-speed automatic transmission for smooth shifting and fuel-sipping performance.

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!

The 2024 Taos also comes with much of the same standard equipment as the Jetta, such as LED headlights, App-Connect® smartphone integration, and the IQ.DRIVE. Are you worried that the Taos will cost a lot more money than a sedan at Lewisville Volkswagen? Rest assured that the 2024 Taos has a rock-bottom starting price for its class and doesn’t cost much more than an economical sedan. In fact, the basic Taos S model has an MSRP below $25,000!^[1]

Compact but not cramped

Where the Taos differs from a sedan is its wider and taller shape. Although the 2024 Taos is technically categorized as a subcompact SUV, we bet that it will impress you with its spacious seating and cargo area. The Taos has twice as much cargo space behind the rear seats than the Jetta sedan can hold in its trunk: nearly 28 cubic feet without collapsing the rear seats.

This SUV provides a few additional inches of headroom and shoulder room than a Jetta sedan does, which can accommodate tall or wide passenger better. Rear-seat headroom is nearly 40 inches and shoulder room is 55 inches.

Yet, the Taos is shorter bumper-to-bumper than the Jetta and has a tighter turning radius. You don’t have to worry about fitting this SUV in your small garage or squeezing into tight parallel parking spaces in downtown Dallas or Fort Worth.

Enjoy enhanced comfort year-round

The 2024 Taos offers plenty of ways to enhance your comfort when driving to work or the grocery store in Lewisville. Across its trim levels, the crossover has available upgrades like dual-zone climate control and ventilated leather seats, which are worthwhile on sweltering summer days in Texas.

The 4MOTION® all-wheel-drive system is worth getting for better control and stability when rainstorms roll through Dallas-Fort Worth and make the streets slippery. Another benefit is the improved rear suspension, which replaces the torsion-beam design with a multilink setup. This gives rear-seat passengers a ride with less jolting over potholes and speed bumps.

Easy driving anywhere in Texas

Another way that the Taos enhances your daily drives is by providing helpful driving-assistance tools. Traffic can be a nightmare in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area, but you’ll feel calmer when you have functions like Blind Spot Monitor, Forward Collision Warning, and Rear Traffic Alert monitoring your surroundings. Receive alerts of hazards and split-second reaction assistance to brake or steer back to safety.

After you park your vehicle, you can prepare the 2024 Taos for you to return. Using the available smartphone app, you can locate the vehicle, unlock the doors, start the engine, and flash the lights so you can find where you parked it.
