Technical data for Your Volkswagen Taos SUV First Generation (2022-2025)

Technical data  
Information on technical data  
General information about specifications  
As long as nothing else is specified or listed, the technical data applies to the base model. Different values may result due to  
optional equipment, different model versions, special equipment, and country-specific equipment. The specifications in the  
legal vehicle documents always take precedence.  
The drive and power of the vehicle are listed in the official vehicle registration.  
Weight  
The values for the curb weight in the following tables apply to a vehicle ready for operation with standard equipment, without a  
driver, with fluids including 100% full fuel tank. Optional equipment and retrofitted equipment will increase the specified curb  
weight and reduce the possible load.  
The load consists of the following weight:  
Passengers.  
All luggage inside and outside the vehicle.  
Attachments.  
The permitted total vehicle weight and the gross axle weight rating must never be exceeded. The permissible values are  
indicated on the safety compliance label or on the identification label on the B-pillar on the driver's side ⇒ Safety  
certificate ⇒ Identification label.  
Performance  
The performance was determined without equipment that limits performance, such as add-on parts.  
Due to technical or legal reasons, the performance specifications and mileage may vary.  
On some engines with heavy duty suspension, the speed maximum speed may be limited and lower.  
Incline angle  
The incline angle is the specification up to which the vehicle is able to drive uphill on an angle with its own power. This can  
depend on the road conditions, the weather conditions, and the engine power, among other things. The values apply to a  
vehicle that is in motion and not to a vehicle that starts to drive form a stationary position.  
A rising difference in altitude (incline) on a 100 m (approx. 300 ft) stretch is given in percentage or degrees (100% =  
45 degrees).  
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)  
Structure of the vehicle identification number (VIN)
