Performance

Everyone in Bourne will access only one engine and one transmission in the new Volkswagen Arteon, the inline-4 2-liter turbocharged engine and an eight-speed automatic transmission. This engine will satisfy every driver because it has an outstanding performance for an SUV and is conservative on fuel. It emits horsepower and torque of 268 hp and 258 pound-feet, respectively. The transmission has a swift and smooth response to the shift paddles. Drivers have the option of power in the front wheels or power in all four wheels. Both options guarantee miles of driving without stopping for fuel by having 29 mpg highway. City gas mileage ratings are, however, slightly different, with the front-wheel-drive leading with 22 mpg while the all-wheel-drive models follow with 20 mpg. The Arteon is also equipped with the XDS cross differential system that applies light pressure on the brakes when driving at high speed. It resembles the limited-slip differential to help safely conquer aggressive corners.

Design

The cabin space of the new Arteon is quite impressive. High-quality leather is used to furnish the seats. One thing Yarmouth drivers will enjoy about this car is its accommodating space that is hard to find in similar models of other brands. All 6-foot occupants, whether seated at the back or front, will have adequate headroom and legroom. The dashboard has standard styling and switchgear common in most Volkswagen vehicles. Front seats in all Arteons are heated, and there is automatic climate control. The Premium spruces up the seats with ventilation, heating for the rear seats, a memory for the driver's seat, and a power liftgate. The hatchback's trunk volume measures 27 cubic feet. The rear seats fold in a 60/40 ratio for drivers to access an impressive 55 cubic feet, similar to the volume available in some small SUVs.

The alluring digital cockpit is standard on all trims except the S. It has a display of 12.3 inches with five different profiles. The screen allows navigation, browsing, and news and traffic updates. Infotainment technology also includes smartphone connectivity, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and an audio speaker system.

The Arteon has a low but wide exterior design. The roofline is coupe-like and sleek, the hood has a clamshell-style, the side doors are frameless, and a large Volkswagen logo on the slatted grille all give this car a breathtaking design. The SEL model has a panoramic sunroof that lights up the cabin and gives the occupants a stunning view of the sky.

Safety

The safety scores of the Arteon are good. It has assistance features like blind-spot monitoring, forward collision mitigation, XDA differential lock, adaptive cruise control, LED headlights, lane-keeping assist, pedestrian detection, automatic emergency brakes, rear cross-traffic alert, and rain-sensing windshield wipers. Each feature has a unique function to fulfill.
