The 2023 Volkswagen Taos is a subcompact crossover SUV that is big on capability. It is powered by a standard 1.5L turbocharged four-cylinder engine, which churns out an impressive 158 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. The Taos also features an available seven-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission that prepares every gear for fast, smooth, and efficient shifting.

In addition, you can easily switch between four available all-wheel-drive modes to the one that best suits your driving needs with the turn of a dial. The 2023 Volkswagen Taos has an estimated fuel economy of 28 MPG on the city streets and 36 MPG on the highway. The combined fuel economy estimate is 31 MPG.
