Volkswagen expert reviews

Well equipped and reasonably priced — with solid driving dynamics, excellent onboard tech and more space than you’d expect inside — the updated 2025 Volkswagen Taos is a winner.

The Volkswagen Tiguan gets a nicely executed redesign for 2025 that gives it a bit more horsepower, lots of new features and curvier styling that picks up VW’s latest design cues.

If you need one car to be nearly everything an enthusiast driver could possibly want it to be (efficient commuter, capable canyon carver, car-pool-friendly kid carrier, cavernous cargo hauler, autocross champion), there is still no substitute for a Volkswagen Golf GTI.

The all-new Volkswagen ID. Buzz is a colorful joy to drive with ample space and impressive driving capabilities.

A competent, well-constructed, value-priced compact sedan is an increasingly rare sight, but the 2025 Volkswagen Jetta fits that bill for those who still want such things.

For enthusiasts looking for a fun combination of refined daily driver and back-road entertainer, the Jetta GLI is a great option, and a good value as well.

VW’s updates to the all-electric 2024 ID.4 don’t address every complaint, but they bring meaningful improvements in critical areas, including power, infotainment and climate controls.

The all-electric 2023 Volkswagen ID.4 has a refined driving experience and well-built interior, but VW went overboard with touch-sensitive controls.

The 2023 Volkswagen Taos is more likable than its second-to-last-place finish in Cars.com’s 2023 Affordable SUV Challenge suggests thanks to a plucky, efficient powertrain and ample room for people and stuff.

The 2024 Volkswagen Atlas adds a surprising number of standard features you wouldn’t expect in this class and a notable boost to the interior’s quality, though there’s one potential deal breaker.
