Great review, not many are these days

I like this car styling

Easily take this over an Audi A5. You can see similarities but this is much sexier and sharper, has a more distinct design and then there's it's obscurity so it'll stay relatively (compared to an A5) rare on the road and that makes it a bit more special and more noticeable. Particularly here in Australia with only the one version. I've only seen 1 of these on the road before so I'd say they're selling quite poorly.

Very nice! Great review. Great to see a few Audi A5 features to be more affordable

Hi RB, Firstly, absolutely first class review, bravo! I have the last of the V6 Passat Highline Sedans, and to date I've yet to find any euro car with that value/performance equation. I'm due to update but just haven't been able to give up my love affair with the that beautiful 220kw V6.....the response and exhaust note, the torque, the smile it puts on my face everyday I drive it. The Arteon looks to have serious street presence and very impressive tech, but how does the turbo 4 pot compare? I know it has the same basic 0-100km/hr performance etc, but most performance 4's I've driven feel "tinnie" and lack that effortless acceleration, response, and pull that the performance 6 & 8's have. The exhaust notes in the 4's are typically asthmatic as well. How does this one sound and behave in person? Many thanks, Mark Melbourne,Australia.

wot a good design.. fantastic design language from volkswagen..

Great review, I am tossing up between this, Audi A4 and Mercedes C class...thoughts?

@carsguide

6 жыл бұрын

All nice cars Henry and all in the same price range even if the Arteon is a lot bigger than the A4 and C-Class. The C-Class is 4686mm long, the A4 is 4726mm, while the Arteon is 4862mm end to end. That means you'll have stacks more room in the Arteon - both cabin space and luggage capacity. So it depends on if you need the room and cargo carrying ability, and also what your parking situation is like at home/work. The Arteon is the best value for money and has the equivalent tech and features of the other two - but lacks the luxury of a Benz and the prestige of an Audi. My brain says Arteon, but my ego says Benz. Good luck, mate. RB

Yes, yes it was. RB

Had a test drive, launch control was amazing but roll on acceleration from around 80 kilometres was very poor, dealership put it down to the new 7 speed. The Passat which has the 6 speed is much better at pick up and go.

Serious question though, was it comfortable in the trunk? Since you are 191 lol

Damn that sloping roof line! Form over function - I'd rather a flat roof and more head room!

Was gonna consider getting this car until you mentioned it’s frameless door. I hate frameless designs. Make the doors sound tinny and loses side structural integrity. Bummer.....

Perhaps on some cars, but there's nothing tinny sounding or any compromised integrity with the Arteon. Cheers Richard

@@jamesrulznow Not the greatest update, but you do get more engines to choose from, including a new R edition, depending on where you live. A full light bar integrated into the front bumper, more tech, revised cluster, infotainment system etc. I don't think it was a bad car to begin with. We actually bought a used one here in QLD for around the 40K mark just last week.

Yes, sort of, but the Arteon is mid-way between the Passat and Phaeton. The Stinger is good - I'm writing a review on the four-cylinder now, well I should be, but I'm procrastinating here. Do you reckon Volkswagen fans might take a bit of persuading to step into a Kia? RB

I don't think it's 30K more than a similarly spec'd Superb, is it? When I test drove the Superb, I found the cabin to be pretty noisy - if the Arteon is better, I'd definitely be willing to pay a premium for that alone, for use as a limo. (I don't think the Arteon has enough rear head room, though, unfortunately. I'll go and have a look at one, but I'm not optimistic)

great camera presence, please be a bit more critical, say the things you don't like more

The Arteon and Passat do have similar looking cabins, but this is normal throughout most car brands and their models: BMW interiors don't vary hugely between models, nor Benz's, gosh pick any other brand and you'll see the continuity of design language across their models which ties them together as a family and while sharing of parts and exploiting the economy of scale. But I understand what you're saying, it'd would have been nice for the Arteon's insides to be differentiated more from the Passat's. Still reckon it's an immaculate looking cabin. RB

Drove this car and can I say it goes like crap!!! No Power or Torque for such a beautiful looking car. SHAME!!!! Needs more powerful engines, feels like your driving a 4 cylinder Camry.

But Arteon it is a 4 cyl car with Turbo petrol engine 2.0L 206kw And this car is for people who like VW who enjoy the driving on this luxury car, not for people who can't wait to find bad things or small rock in the middle of the Ocean.

Arteon definition: "ok looking car with a piss weak engine." Wake up Volkswagen. Give us a twin turbo v6 in this.

@gregsullivan7408

Rob Row 5.6 seconds 0-100 isn't "piss weak" in my books - it's a BLOODY STRONG engine! However, being a limo driver, yes, I would definitely prefer a larger, normally aspirated engine, along with a conventional transmission. (and I see that the American market *does* in fact get a conventional tranny - lucky them!) Reason for both is quietness & smoothness. I currently have the LS3 based Caprice and it is totally sublime.
