Compare the Volkswagen Arteon to the Competition

COMPARE THE 2024 MID-SIZE VOLKSWAGEN ARTEON TO THE COMPETITION

2024 VW ARTEON - PART SCULPTURE, PART AUTOMOBILE & THE PERFECT PREMIUMMID-SIZE SEDAN FOR OLD SAYBROOK COMMUTERS

Arguably no mid-size car stands out as much as the 2024 Volkswagen Arteon. This premium mid-size sedan sits practically in its own class, as its artful design combines with a masterstroke of sophistication and modern performance that the Kia Stinger, Acura TLX, and the VW Arteon's closest rivals can't match. Coastal Connecticut car buyers can make a well-informed decision with Volkswagen of Old Saybrook comparing the VW Arteon to the competition.

PERFORMANCE -MORE FUEL-EFFICIENT!

The Volkswagen Arteon can earn up to 30 miles per gallon on Connecticut highways between Guilford, CT and Middletown, CT. The Kia Stinger is not as fuel-efficient, only earning 29 highway miles per gallon, and models powered by the thirsty twin-turbocharged V6 engine are rated for 17/24 (city/highway) miles per gallon. The Acura TLX - maxing out at 29 miles per gallon - also offers a turbocharged V6 rated for 19/25 miles per gallon. Commuters from Old Saybrook and Waterford, CT, are choosing the new Volkswagen Arteon as their fuel-efficient mid-size sedan!

The Volkswagen Arteon's 2.0-liter TSI® turbocharged engine produces 300 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. The Kia Stinger's base 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine matches the VW Arteon's horsepower output at 300 ponies. The Acura TLX's base engine - a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder - only produces 272 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, trailing well behind the VW Arteon.

Driving the Kia Stinger doesn't deliver as much of a nuance feel as German rivals like the Volkswagen Arteon, which provides better handling on Old Saybrook roads and Coastal Connecticut highways with an XDS® Cross Differential System and DCC adaptive chassis control. These performance features aren't offered on rival mid-size sedans.

Competing sedans offer all-wheel drive like the VW Arteon does with 4MOTION® all-wheel drive. However, every Arteon comes with all-wheel drive as standard equipment for exceptional grip and performance. Volkswagen's sedan has a more advanced transmission, with a seven-speed DSG® automatic, giving Old Saybrook VW Arteon owners smooth shifting ability.

-DESIGN-

Each mid-size sedan has a sporty design and comes with a well-appointed interior. The Volkswagen Arteon shows off a more aerodynamic fastback design.

VW ARTEON FAR MORE VERSATILE & ROOMY!

Rear passengers are more comfortable on rides between Old Saybrook and East Haven, CT in the Volkswagen Arteon, which offers 40.2 inches of legroom in the back. The Acura TLX (34.9 inches) and the Kia Stinger (36.4 inches) offer less rear legroom. The VW Arteon provides 96.5 cubic feet of passenger volume, ahead of the TLX at 93.4 cubic feet.

The Acura TLX offers only 13.5 cubic feet of trunk space. The Kia Stinger offers versatility with folding seats, but the 23 to 41 cubic feet of cargo space isn't as much room as the Volkswagen Arteon, which lets Old Saybrook drivers use the 60/40 split rear seat to utilize 27 to 56 cubic feet of cargo space. The VW Arteon even features a removable deck cover for long items to pass through the sedan's cabin.

TECHNOLOGY

The infotainment touchpad in the Acura TLX is impressive but offers similar features as the Volkswagen Arteon with its advanced Discover Media touchscreen with an 8-inch color display. The Kia Stinger can't match the Arteon's VW Digital Cockpit Pro, as the intuitive instrument display gives Old Saybrook drivers access to high-resolution real-time driving information. Each sedan includes wireless Apple CarPlay®/Android Auto™ integration for smartphone access on the way to New Haven.
