The 2022 Taos is a completely new model in VW showrooms. Leading up to its official reveal, we learned about its engine specs and size details as well as its handsome design and available features.
Pros Huge back seat for its subcompact designation, generous cargo storage, really good fuel-economy figures.
Cons Acceleration isn't as spunky as some rivals, some chintzy cabin materials, maladroit dual-clutch automatic.
Pros Comfortable ride Great gas mileage Spacious, supportive seats Excellent cargo capacity
Cons Some cheap cabin materials Unrefined transmissions
All-new two-row subcompact SUV that slots below the Tiguan.
Pros Sharp handling and smooth driving character Comfortable interior that's easy to get in and out of Big cargo area for a little SUV Impressive technology features
Cons Transmission can be slow to frustratingly slow to downshift Noticeable road and engine noise at highway speeds
The 2019 Audi RS 3 comes with all wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 7-speed automated manual.Minor adjustments to package features.Fixed sport suspension now available as stand-alone option.
Pros Potent acceleration and heaps of traction Well-trimmed cabin Enough practicality to serve everyday use Attractive, easy-to-use infotainment system
Cons Snug back seat and small cargo area Ride quality might be too firm for casual drivers Front seats sit too high for tall occupants Some driver assistance systems, such as adaptive cruise, are optional
Overall, an excellent car, even considering the high price given the size. It has a well-rounded set of features, and when performance is taken into account, some would even argue that it is good value for money. Definitely well worth a drive!
pros Excellent power and performance; Five-cylinder exhaust sound is unique; Interior fit and finish typical high Audi quality; Chuckability around tight roads; Sharp looks both inside and out
Cons Turbo lag (which may be a pro for some!); Transmission logic in Comfort mode; Software bugs in engine and transmission control units; Lack of electric seat adjustability; No puddle lights
Pros Awesome turbo five-cylinder, planted yet playful chassis, lovely cabin.
Cons More engine noise please, big price for a small car, cramped back seat.
