CarGurus Analysis: 2024 Volkswagen Taos

Summary
With 4,167 currently listed for sale and an average price of $21,143, 34.8% of 2024 Volkswagen Taos models for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2024 Volkswagen Taos 5 / 5 stars.
93.0% of 2024 Taos models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2024 Volkswagen Taos stands out as one of the roomiest entries in the subcompact SUV class, and that extra size translates directly into passenger comfort. It was designed as Volkswagen’s accessible SUV, slotting below the Tiguan, and it brings a composed, European character along with styling cues from the larger Atlas. For buyers who want a practical crossover with a higher seating position, good cabin space, and a familiar Volkswagen feel, the Taos makes a strong case.
For 2024, the Taos came with a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, and it produced 158 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque through the 2024 model year. Front-wheel-drive models used a conventional eight-speed automatic transmission, while 4Motion all-wheel-drive models used a seven-speed dual-clutch DSG transmission. Fuel economy favored the front-wheel-drive version at 31 mpg combined, versus 28 mpg combined for 4Motion AWD models. The cabin is another strength, with good seat comfort, lots of room, and a 10.25-inch digital driver display on every trim. The SE and SEL trims also brought an 8-inch touchscreen, while all trims supported Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The 2024 Taos also benefited from a broader safety suite, since the complete IQ.Drive package was standard on every Taos by that model year. At the same time, it was not built to win on outright power or off-road ability, and the infotainment system was described as fiddly. Even so, its mix of space, comfort, efficiency, and competitive pricing gives it broad appeal for shoppers who want a sensible small SUV with a more refined personality than many rivals.

35.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so you still have room to shop selectively.
Is the 2024 Volkswagen Taos reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The 2024 Taos was built with a broader safety suite, and the complete IQ.Drive package was standard on every trim. It also offers a cabin that emphasizes comfort and practicality, which usually matters a lot when you plan to keep a vehicle for years. For a used buyer, the main long-term ownership risk is making sure the specific example you choose has been maintained well and still feels tight and well cared for.
What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Volkswagen Taos?
Accident-free inventory is excellent at 92.8% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
You should still run a vehicle history report and confirm the car’s maintenance record before you commit. Put the inspection focus on overall condition, especially signs of prior damage, uneven wear, or neglected upkeep. Since the Taos is meant to be a practical daily driver, you’ll want to pay close attention to how well the cabin, controls, and drivetrain feel in real-world use.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Volkswagen Taos?
This is a moderate market, so you can shop selectively without expecting every listing to be a bargain.
- Deal availability: 35.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 4,186 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 7.96% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 92.8% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $20,384, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2024 Volkswagen Taos's resale value?
The current average of $21,107 sits slightly below last year's $22,931.
That price movement suggests the market has cooled a bit, which can help you buy at a more favorable entry point today. For a future seller, softer current pricing can mean less immediate upside, but it also signals that the model is still trading in a fairly active range. If you buy well and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you should have a reasonable path to preserving value.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2024 Volkswagen Taos or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2024 if:
- 35.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is excellent at 92.8% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 7.96% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2023 if:
- At $21,134, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $21,107 average.
- It offers available all-wheel drive, a roomy interior, and plenty of utility.
The 2024 is the better primary target if you want the stronger current-market value and broad inventory. If you’re especially price-sensitive, the 2023 is still worth a look, but you should expect to trade some of the 2024’s market advantages for a slightly older model year.
