Why Choose Volkswagen Cars, SUVs, and EVs

The Volkswagen lineup includes a variety of unique vehicles with fuel-efficient powertrains, minimalist styling, and innovative technology. While other automakers build their vehicles with similar styles, the VW lineup stands apart thanks to the pleasing angles, thoughtful interior features, and German engineering.

Innovative Technology for Safety and Infotainment

Volkswagen leads the way with standard safety technology. Every Volkswagen model, regardless of model and trim, comes standard with the IQ.Drive driver-assist technology that includes features like Front and Rear Parking Sensors, Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane-Keep Assist, and Blind-Spot Monitoring. Other automakers offer features like these as optional, or they only include them in the top trims.

You can trust that every VW comes standard with a large infotainment touchscreen outfitted with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The affordably-priced VW Taos S (the entry-level trim) has a 6.5-inch touchscreen with connectivity features, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and several USB ports. The entry-level Jetta is similarly equipped.

Fuel-Efficient Power and Minimalist Design

Another popular feature in every Volkswagen vehicle is the powerful yet fuel-efficient powertrain. Entry-level models like the Volkswagen Jetta S are equipped with a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with 158 horsepower and an EPA fuel-economy rating of 31/41 MPG.

Most VW models come with front-wheel drive, and many have optional or standard all-wheel drive. While most models come with a standard automatic transmission, many models, like the Volkswagen Golf GTI and Volkswagen Jetta, are available with a manual transmission. Most automakers have stopped making vehicles with manual transmissions.

Even the electrified VW ID.4 is outfitted with a satisfying electric motor. It is one of the few models with standard rear-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive. The electric vehicle is available with a single electric motor and a 62-kWh battery pack or an 82-kWh battery paired with one or two motors. The top configuration delivers 330 horsepower and an EPA-estimated range of 263 miles. It’s easy to see why the ID.4 has won so many awards as a trend-setting and affordable electric SUV.

Along with the popular powertrain features, Volkswagens are known for their minimalist interior design. The buttons and knobs are within reach and in smart positions. The infotainment systems have large graphics, giving them an intuitive design. Even the interior features, like the comfortable and durable upholstery and dash components, are made with clean lines for a calm and relaxing driving experience.
