The A5 filled that void, it was essentially an A4 coupe.

@@solid1378 I actually cross-shopped this with the Stinger V6, but 2 months ago purchased a used, 4 year old top of the range R-Line Arteon with the 7-speed dual clutch DSG gearbox (here in Australia), and 20 inch “turbine” wheels. An absolutely brilliant car in virtually every respect. It looks amazing, with incredible utility and space, and rides and handles beautifully, helped by the AWD “4Motion” setup. The 4 cylinder turbo 2 litre engine has heaps of power, albeit with some turbo lag, as correctly noted in the video. However, once past this lag point, the car really takes off, delivering very high speeds in no time. Launched from rest, it will do 0-100km/hr (62mph) in 5.6 seconds! It is no slouch at all!

It would be interesting to have all the haters post a pic of what they drive. So many miss the point with what VW is doing with the Arteon. It is not meant for drags strip performance. It's meant to be a grand touring car with more upscale styling than the Passat. Reliability and service costs of VW's are very reasonable in my experience. You are getting everything Europe gets with the exceptions of what is not allowed in this country due to regulations or what VW does not think would be profitable/desired in this market. No VR6 for the Europeans, either. It is very interesting and somewhat puzzling why so many commenters seem to rate cars by how much horsepower they produce and if they'd "smoke" the car next to them at the stoplight.

I was excited about this car when I heard it was coming, but honestly, not a single thing about the Arteon or any newer VW makes me want to replace my 07 passat wagon 3.6 4mo. I can retrofit the same headunit, install aftermarket headlights, have the real leather and real wood dash and had a guy pull up next to me in a big ass dodge Ram to tell me "that 3.6 is sick" after a roll on from 60-90 with ease. Vw should've sourced the Audi 3 liter supercharged setup, cause every reviewer, says looks fast moves slow. My car looks like im on my way to pick up my daughter (which i often am) but on the low hauls ass.

Don't know that the Audi 3.0L would fit under hood without a lot of modification; the Audi 3.0 is used in longitudinal configurations, whereas the Arteon (and most of VWs current car line up) uses a transverse configuration. I'd rather VW look into a smaller displacement 24V VR6 with some sort of forced induction for their higher spec vehicles.

VWs is a peculiar manufactures in that it occupies a niche segment of near luxury. Maybe that sells well in the European market, but few North Americans know what to make of it. It should compete against the Toyota Camera or Honda Accord, but even though its fit and finish is easily superior, it generally lacks their utilitarian nature and gets beaten by their fuel economy. On the other hand, it might be a better bargain than even the lowers priced entrants from Mercedes, BMW or Acura, at equal cost, but lacks their better recognized luxury nameplates and subsequent prestige value. The other obvious issue --- and this is a big one -- is that they're severely under-powered. VW offers a world-class turbo 4 (which explains whey they put it in everything they make) but they definitely needs to break the 300 hp barrier with a decent 6 cylinder motor. I realize fuel economy is an issue, so perhaps develop hybrid? Otherwise, there's no way Americans would ever pay over 40 grand for any 4 cylinder VW, especially when comparable 6s are available in the same or near the same segment.

I am so totally mystified about why so many car companies, High end and average car companies use the swiping your foot under the rear bumper technique to unlock the rear hatches and trunks as a standard process. I've always thought that that was a little primitive. The proximity aproach toward the rear of a vehicle technology to automatically unlock the hatches and trunks that Hyundai and Kia vehicles use would be a whole lot more logical and easier to use...am i wrong in my thinking ?..Totally surprised and disappointed 😞 that the Higher end luxury cars companies use the swiping under the bumper technology.

Correct. Most people don't understand the difference between turbo lag and throttle response, and it's all in the way the ECU has been programmed..

They should have put the VR-6 engine in these cars. That 4 cyl even with the higher H.P. doesn't cut it because it's over taxed for the size and weight of the car. This is typical of what VW is doing in the States. They're offering nice packages with puny and weak engines while in their European versions they offer their strongest and better performing engines. That's why I stop buying VW.

I guess if you really want fast, get it chipped at APR & maybe some other aftermarket goodies that I imagine will surely make it to market soon. If every there was VW to modify and tweak more power out of, the Arteon is it.

There are certainly faster cars and nicer cars for less money but a c class isn't the right comparison. This thing size wise is probably between an s class and an e class so price comparison should at least be with the larger sedans.
