Introducing the 2025 Volkswagen Taos: Compact SUV with Big Attitude

With its fresh design, sporty powertrain, and innovative technology, the 2025 Volkswagen Taos is redefining the compact SUV. We look at the new features that help the Taos stand out from the competition.

Basics About the 2025 Volkswagen Taos

VW takes everything Ballwin drivers love about previous Taos models and enhances them for the 2025. An external makeover sees the front fascia gain a redesigned bumper and bolder-looking grille, beautifully complemented by bright LED projector headlamps. The sleek taillight strip and illuminated VW badge at the rear will leave a lasting impression as you pass other road users on 17-inch aluminum alloy wheels.

For 2025, Volkswagen expands the color palette, giving drivers even more ways to tailor the Taos to their personality. Deep Black Pearl, Bright Moss Green, Monterey Blue Pearl, and Pyrite Silver are just some of the options that will help you stand out from the crowd.

New Features

Revamped Interior

VW has also revamped the interior, introducing soft-touch surfaces and giving the black and gray seats contrast stitching for a sportier, more modern finish. The dashboard now features two eight-inch displays, including a digital cockpit panel that relays important information to the driver.

Seemingly hovering above the central dash is the infotainment touchscreen. Bluetooth technology lets you sync your smartphone and the inclusion of VW’s Car-Net system allows you to transform your Taos into a Wi-Fi hotspot.

Upgraded Performance

Although the new Taos retains the same 1.5-liter TSI engine as its predecessor, several upgrades help improve performance, such as a new turbo housing, a larger intercooler, and revised fuel injectors and piston rings. Output increases as a result, with the new Taos generating 174 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque.

Improved Efficiency

These engine upgrades also help boost the Tao’s fuel efficiency. Drivers can now expect to achieve an impressive 36 mpg on the highway and 28 mpg when driving around Ballwin.

IQ.Drive Assistive Technologies

Every Taos in the lineup, from the base S trim to the fully equipped SEL, comes with Volkswagen’s IQ.DRIVE system. This extensive suite of assistive technologies enhances every drive and helps improve safety.

Standard features such as pedestrian monitoring, forward collision alert, and automatic emergency braking offer welcome assistance on busy city streets. A rearview camera system makes backing up and parking a breeze. Lane keeping, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, and rear traffic alert help boost confidence and enhance safety on the open road.
