The countdown has started: the new Arteon celebrates its world premiere at the Geneva International Motor Show

  • New fastback model positioned above the Passat sets the pace in the premium mid-size class
  • Headlights and radiator grille merge to create completely new front end

Wolfsburg – #volkswagen is enhancing its model line-up with an avant-garde gran turismo: the new #arteon. The fastback model, positioned above the Passat, will be presented to the public for the first time at the Geneva International Motor Show (9 to 19 March).

Combining avant-garde design with a high level of versatility was the key objective for designers and developers of the #arteon. This resulted in an interior architecture which is exceptionally spacious – with ample head and leg room at all seats – which is extraordinary for this body form. Key design elements of the charismatic #arteon include its completely new front end, in which the LED headlights and daytime running lights merge with the chrome-plated crossbars of the radiator grille and the bonnet. The car’s striking shoulder section is another defining feature of its design.

Other equipment features making their debut in the #arteon include the latest generation of driver assistance systems. Among them, features that are typically reserved for luxury automobiles. This unique combination makes the #arteon one of the most attractive products in its segment.

1)   Arteon: this vehicle is not on sale yet. It does not have type approval yet and is therefore not subject to Directive 1999/94/EC.
