Power and Performance

Powered by a 1.5-liter TSI® turbocharged engine, the 2022 Volkswagen Taos achieves 158 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque pairs. Eco-conscious drivers will enjoy savings at the pump, with the Taos getting an EPA-estimated 28 mpg in the city, 36 mpg on the highway, and 31 mpg combined.

Front-wheel drive models feature an 8-speed automatic transmission, but every trim is available with Volkswagen’s 4Motion all-wheel-drive system. This system includes a 7-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission that gets 25 mpg in the city, 32 mpg on the highway, and 28 mpg combined.

There’s more! The Taos provides more cargo space than the Subaru Crosstrek and Kia Seltos – 28 cubic feet behind the rear seats and 66 cubic feet with seats folded flat. Whether you’re stowing camping gear or groceries, the Taos feels nice and roomy on the road ahead.

Always putting safety first, Volkswagen has equipped the 2022 Taos with the most innovative driver-assist features like blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control.
