The new Arteon is the highlight of this year’s show appearance by the Volkswagen brand at the Geneva International Motor Show. Both elegant and dynamic, it offers a remarkable amount of space and comfort with its coupé-like lines. The newly developed fastback model has the latest generation driver assistance systems, which in the past have been reserved for higher car classes. In addition, the new Tiguan Allspace is making its debut at Lake Geneva – with much more space for luggage and up to seven passengers and impressive flexibility.
Dr Herbert Diess, Chairman of the Board of Management Volkswagen Brand has stated: «The new Arteon has the proportions of a Gran Tourismo with a highly functional overall concept. It offers the very latest infotainment features and semi-automated driving functions. At the same time, our new top-of the-line model offers great value for money. That is how we are challenging the premium carmakers».
Frameless side windows, a wrap-around bonnet and finely detailed dynamic lines in the style of a GT – these define the look of the new Arteon. The wide-opening rear hatch that is hinged at the top gives easy access to the 563-litre luggage compartment – that is best-in-class. The long wheelbase of 2,841 mm enables a remarkably generous interior architecture for this body form that creates a spacious feeling with lots of headroom and legroom at all five seat positions. The R-Line and Elegance equipment lines positioned above the base version further accentuate the sporty and elegant character of the new Volkswagen model.
