Facts about Volkswagen Arteon
- The Volkswagen Arteon was first introduced in the UK in 2017.
- It is considered a large family car.
- The name ‘Arteon’ is derived from artem, Latin for “art,” whereas the ‘eon’ is said to be a carryover from the China-only VW Phideon’s name.
- The Arteon is generally seen as an upscale successor to the Volkswagen CC (even if VW does not want to admit it), which was itself a spinoff variant of the Volkswagen Passat CC.
- The Arteon has sold approximately 300,000 units globally since 2017.
- There has only been one generation and one facelift in 2020, along with a Shooting Brake estate car variant, the Arteon R performance variant, and an eHybrid plug-in hybrid model.
- The Arteon’s two biggest markets are China and Europe (roughly split 50/50) with the United States a distant third.
- The original saloon variant of the Arteon was discontinued in 2023; only the estate car variant (Shooting Brake) remains in production.
- Some of the biggest competitors to the VW Arteon include the BMW 3 Series, Alfa Romeo Giulia, and Jaguar XE.
- The Volkswagen Arteon is scheduled to be discontinued in 2026 and its successor will be the all-electric Volkswagen ID.7 (already in production since 2023).
- European Volkswagen Arteons are assembled at the Emden plant in Lower Saxony, Germany.

Frequently asked questions about Volkswagen Arteon
Why is the Volkswagen Arteon being discontinued?
The VW Arteon has already been discontinued in several markets such as Canada and the United States due to poor sales. Its original saloon variant was discontinued in 2023 and only the Arteon Shooting Brake estate car remains in production until 2026. Poor sales in its two biggest markets, Europe and China, can be attributed to Volkswagen’s decision to cease production.
Is the VW Arteon worth buying?
The VW Arteon is somewhat of a niche pick for potential buyers. It’s trying hard to be an Audi, BMW, or perhaps even a humble man’s Mercedes, but it ultimately comes off as a slightly fancier and much roomier VW Passat - not that there’s anything wrong with that! In terms of performance, it really feels like a VW and falls behind its much more expensive luxury competitors, but it does benefit from having a much lower cost as well. It certainly is one of VW’s less dull-looking cars, but again, it isn’t quite up to the standard of the big German luxury brands.
Is Arteon better than Volkswagen Passat?
While the Arteon shares many similarities with the Passat, they are not exactly the same. The VW Arteon offers more interior space (although the Passat is quite roomy as-is), more refined aesthetics, and comes across as a posh, upscaled Passat. On the other hand, the Passat has over half a century of heritage to its name and is by no means a bad choice.
What car is replacing the VW Arteon?
Volkswagen is replacing the Arteon with the ID.7, an all-electric executive car that has been in production since 2023. Not only does the ID.7 help Volkswagen lean further towards its goals of full electrification but it is also a means to shutter production of the Arteon which was lacklustre in sales.
Is Volkswagen Arteon fuel efficient?
The Arteon is fairly average in terms of fuel economy. Estimates for the 2018 Volkswagen Arteon are approximately 37.8 mpg, for example. Depending on powertrain, model year, and driving habits, Arteon owners may be able to squeeze a little better fuel efficiency from their Arteon.
