Front-wheel drive is standard and suitable for most driving situations. However, 4MOTION all-wheel drive is available and can provide better traction in rain, snow, or slippery conditions common during Illinois winters. Contact us to discuss which drivetrain best fits your needs.
The 2026 Taos includes an updated 174-horsepower 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and refined interior technology. It continues to offer generous cargo space — up to 65.9 cubic feet with the rear seats folded — making it a practical choice for daily use and weekend trips.
The Taos provides 40.1 inches of front legroom and 37.9 inches of rear legroom. Many families find it comfortable for daily use, including fitting a rear-facing car seat with space for an adult in the front passenger seat. We recommend a test drive to evaluate the interior space yourself.

I worked with Dali recently on purchasing a 2025 VW Taos and can't recommend him enough! Dali was so thorough about features included and explaining everything about the car! Overall, the whole process was smooth and easy. I enjoyed working with Dali; he is so knowledgeable and so kind. Definitely ask for him if you're looking to visit this location!!!
