Shop for the Volkswagen Taos at Fowler Volkswagen of Norman

Lately, shoppers around Oklahoma City have been looking for an affordable crossover with luxury features, and the Volkswagen Taos at Fowler Volkswagen of Norman boasts such attributes. Its affordability is witnessed in the price tag and the fuel-efficient engine it brings along. Undoubtedly, it will always be a compelling SUV in years to come, given that it is a new model in the lineup. The new VW Taos in our Norman inventory will be provided in three trim levels: The Taos S, Taos SE, and the Taos SEL.

Exterior Design

Its exterior is similar to any other VW model in the class. The styling is simple and considered restrained, making it distinct from its rivals. The lower trims get LED headlights, 17-inch alloy wheels and roof rack rails finished in black. You can get heated windshield washer nozzles, 18-inch wheels, adaptive headlights and an illuminated grille when you move up the trim levels. The rear fascia boasts LED taillights and a light tinted window fixed with a defroster.

Technology

Just about every new VW model you encounter around Newcastle, including the new Taos, is offered with Volkswagen's MIB infotainment system. The system comes with user-friendly infotainment center displays that are easy to navigate and responsive to inputs. The standard touchscreen is 6.5-inch and is accompanied by excellent features, such as USB ports, Bluetooth®, Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay®. The optional 8-inch touchscreen is also provided with similar amenities, only that it adds satellite radio, in-dash navigation and more USB ports. Dual-zone automatic climate control, push-button start and wireless device charging can also be added to the lineup as convenient features.

Performance

It only comes with a sole engine option, a turbo-four with a front-wheel drive as the standard drivetrain. All-wheel-drive is also available. The engine makes 158 horsepower and is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. If you opt for the all-wheel drive, you will also get a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The powertrain does a fantastic job around town and freeways by delivering excellent acceleration power.

With or without the all-wheel drive, the fuel efficiency ratings are good. Minus the all-wheel-drive, the VW Taos records fuel efficiency ratings of 28 mpg in the city and 36 mpg on the highway. With the all-wheel-drive, you can drive up to 32 mpg and 25 mpg on the highway and city, respectively.

Additionally, this new crossover is easy to drive and exhibits minimal body lean-around turns because of its agile handling. All-wheel drive is a great option for drivers around Chickasha who are looking for a vehicle capable of handling rough terrain.
