Volkswagen Arteon

Automobiles

The Volkswagen Arteon is a large family car, also described as a mid-size car, that Volkswagen unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show on 6 March 2017. It is the direct successor to the Volkswagen CC but was positioned above the Passat and as more upmarket than the CC, and it is built on the MQB platform. The car was offered as a five-door liftback and, after a facelift in 2020, as a shooting brake estate, alongside a plug-in hybrid eHybrid and the performance Arteon R. Production of the saloon ended in 2023, and the wagon, once planned to run until 2026, was discontinued at the end of 2024.
