How much does the 2023 Volkswagen Arteon cost?

Prices have held steady compared to this time last year, signaling a stable and predictable market for this model year.

There are 84 listings available, which suggests a fairly limited pool of inventory for you to compare.

If you find a listing below $30,296.78, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2023 Volkswagen Arteon a good car?

Yes — the 2023 Volkswagen Arteon earns a 5/5 user rating and a 7.83/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel and Form and function.

It stands out as a stylish alternative to a more common SUV, with roomy seating for five, available all-wheel drive, a large cargo area, and a more engaging driving character than many crossover-style rivals. The trade-offs are clear: fuel economy is unimpressive, the ergonomic design is poor, and the infotainment system feels outdated.

For you, that means the Arteon makes the most sense if you want practicality without giving up a distinctive design or a comfortable, fun-to-drive feel. 31.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2023 Volkswagen Arteon reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The Arteon is described as solid and secure at speed, with predictable ride and handling traits and a trustworthy feel in everyday driving. Its turbocharged powertrain is presented as robust and responsive, and the car’s overall packaging supports confident use as a daily driver.

Volkswagen also includes complimentary five-year subscriptions to the Remote and Safe & Secure Car-Net connected service plans, which add remote start, vehicle location, emergency help, and crash notification features. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that a premium-feeling car with complex tech can be more frustrating if prior maintenance or software upkeep was neglected.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Volkswagen Arteon?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 85.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully, because a clean listing percentage does not replace a proper records review. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection that focuses on the infotainment system, driver-assistance behavior, and any signs of uneven wear or neglected maintenance. Pay close attention to cabin controls and electronics, since the car’s usability depends heavily on them.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Arteon comes in SE, SEL, and SEL Premium trim levels, each with an R-Line designation. The base SE R-Line is the one to watch closely for feature gaps, since the higher trims add more equipment and the test car’s missing items show that some comfort features may not always be present.
• Powertrain: You get a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 300 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. The SEL R-Line and SEL Premium R-Line have standard 4Motion all-wheel drive, while the SE R-Line is front-wheel drive only.
• Safety package: Every 2023 Arteon includes IQ.Drive, which bundles forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist, blind
