FRESH, PRACTICAL, ONE-OWNER, NONSMOKER, TURBOCHARGED, ADVENTURE-READY! The refreshed 2025 Volkswagen Taos S is a compact SUV that makes exceptionally good use of its footprint, combining a surprisingly spacious five-passenger cabin, excellent cargo versatility, strong fuel economy, and a newly upgraded 174-horsepower TURBO engine. Finished in Platinum Gray Metallic, this ONE-OWNER Taos has traveled just 16,831 miles. This particular Taos also gets a useful personality boost from the $680 TAOS ADVENTURE PACKAGE, adding roof rack base carrier bars, wheel splash guards, rear-bumper protection, and a retractable cargo privacy cover -- practical additions that make an already versatile little Volkswagen even better suited to active everyday use. WHY SHOPPERS BUY THIS MODEL The Taos has always made a strong case for itself by offering more usable room than its compact exterior dimensions suggest. It is easy to maneuver and park in crowded areas, yet passengers are treated to impressive space and the cargo area has the flexibility needed for groceries, luggage, recreational gear, and road-trip duty. For 2025, Volkswagen made meaningful improvements rather than simply changing the styling. The revised 1.5-liter turbocharged engine gained 16 horsepower for a new total of 174, the infotainment system was updated, interior materials were revised, and every Taos now uses an 8-speed automatic transmission. AUTOMOTIVE PRESS AND INDUSTRY RECOGNITION Car and Driver named the 2025 Taos an Editors' Choice and rated it 8.5 out of 10, highlighting its unusually spacious interior and strong cargo capacity among its key strengths. The publication also found the refreshed Taos to offer solid handling in a roomy, feature-rich package, noting that the 2025 updates make Volkswagen's smallest SUV a more compelling choice. WARRANTY The odometer is hovering around the 16,831-mile mark, and it is STILL COVERED by the factory. REMAINING TRANSFERABLE FACTORY COVERAGE New Vehicle Limited Warranty Provides coverage for qualifying defects in manufacturer-supplied material or workmanship. Estimated expiration: 05/17/2029 or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. Extended service plans may also be available to provide additional peace of mind throughout your ownership experience. STANDARD FEATURES Even as the entry point to the Taos lineup, the S benefits substantially from Volkswagen's 2025 refresh. Its newly upgraded turbocharged engine, 8-speed automatic transmission, LED exterior lighting, digital instrumentation, and updated infotainment system give it a thoroughly modern foundation without forcing buyers into a higher trim simply to get the essentials right. The S also includes Volkswagen's IQ.DRIVE driver-assistance technology, giving this value-oriented trim an unusually useful collection of active safety and driving-assistance features right from the factory. TAOS ADVENTURE PACKAGE - $680 The aptly named TAOS ADVENTURE PACKAGE adds several factory accessories aimed at making the Taos more useful for travel and outdoor activities. Roof Rack Base Carrier Bars Provide a foundation for compatible roof-mounted cargo and recreational accessories. Wheel Splash Guards Help reduce road spray and debris thrown against the lower body. Black Bumperdillo Rear Bumper Protection Plate Helps protect the top surface of the rear bumper while loading and unloading cargo. Retractable Cargo-Area Privacy Cover Helps keep belongings in the cargo compartment concealed from outside view. Rather than adding purely cosmetic extras, this package focuses on the kind of equipment that can actually make a compact SUV more useful -- especially for owners who regularly travel with luggage, recreational equipment, or outdoor gear. MECHANICAL FEATURES Volkswagen substantially revised the Taos powertrain for 2025. Its 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder now produces 174 horsepower, up from 158 horsepower in the previous model year, while this front-wheel-drive version sends power through an 8-speed automatic transmission. The turbocharged engine provides useful low- and midrange response without requiring a large-displacement powerplant, helping the Taos balance everyday drivability with the efficiency shoppers expect from a compact crossover. FUEL ECONOMY Efficiency is one of the advantages of choosing the front-wheel-drive Taos. Its compact dimensions, turbocharged engine, and 8-speed automatic make it particularly well suited to drivers who want SUV practicality without the fuel appetite of a larger vehicle. The 2025 Taos S FWD carries EPA fuel-economy estimates of approximately 28 MPG city, 36 MPG highway, and 31 MPG combined, making it an appealing choice for commuting and longer highway trips alike. EXTERIOR FEATURES Platinum Gray Metallic gives this Taos a clean, sophisticated appearance that works particularly well with the redesigned styling introduced for 2025. The refreshed front and rear treatments give it a more contemporary look while preserving the upright proportions that contribute to its useful interior space. The Adventure Package's roof rack base carrier bars add a more purposeful SUV character while providing genuine utility, and the wheel splash guards and Black Bumperdillo rear-bumper protector add practical protection for everyday use. INTERIOR FEATURES The Taos is particularly impressive when you step inside because its compact exterior does not translate into a cramped passenger compartment. Its upright design provides useful headroom and rear-seat accommodations, while the flexible cargo area gives it considerably more everyday usefulness than a traditional compact car. The 2025 refresh also brought updated interior materials and revised technology. The Adventure Package's retractable cargo privacy cover is a simple but worthwhile addition, helping keep items stored behind the rear seats concealed when the vehicle is parked. INFOTAINMENT & TECHNOLOGY An 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system became standard across the Taos lineup for 2025, giving even the S trim a modern central interface for entertainment and connectivity. Volkswagen's Digital Cockpit places important vehicle information directly ahead of the driver, while smartphone integration and Bluetooth connectivity make it easy to bring familiar media and communication functions along for the drive. SAFETY FEATURES The 2025 Taos S comes standard with an extensive collection of driver-assistance technology, including Forward Collision Warning with Autonomous Emergency Braking, Blind Spot Monitor, Rear Traffic Alert, Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Assist, and related IQ.DRIVE functionality. The S trim's standard LED projector headlights also earned a GOOD rating in IIHS headlight testing. The Taos further includes the active and passive fundamentals expected from a modern Volkswagen, including electronic stability control, anti-lock braking, tire-pressure monitoring, and a comprehensive airbag system. ... and there's SO MUCH more!
