Leather Seat Colors Available in Three Options


The "Elegance," a new grade embodying refined style, has arrived for the VOLKSWAGEN Arteon, the brand's flagship sedan, which first landed in Japan last October.

The "Elegance" powertrain shares the same 2.0 TSI engine with all-wheel drive as the existing "R-Line," producing a maximum output of 206 kW (280 ps) and peak torque of 350 Nm.

While maintaining the same performance and safety features as the "R-Line," the "Elegance" offers a choice of three leather seat colors: Titan Black, Mistral Grey, and Valencia Brown. The decorative panels feature a rich wood grain, creating a sophisticated ambiance unique to the "Elegance." Distinctive elements such as the exclusive front bumper and silver door mirrors set it apart from the sporty "R-Line," establishing an elegant atmosphere.

Additionally, a new "Luxury Package" option is available for both the "Elegance" and "R-Line" grades. This package combines an electric panoramic sliding roof with a premium sound system from the renowned Danish audio manufacturer, Dynaudio.

The body is offered in six colors, including Mangangrau Metallic and Chili Red Metallic. The price is 5.99 million yen.
