How much does the Volkswagen Taos cost in today's market?
Used Volkswagen Taos prices span a wide range depending on model year. Here's what the market looks like right now:
| Model Year | Current Avg. Price | Year-Round Range |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | $23,938 | $23,938 – $27,847 |
| 2024 | $20,952 | $20,383 – $22,697 |
| 2023 | $21,001 | $20,317 – $21,841 |
| 2022 | $18,436 | $18,436 – $20,619 |
The Volkswagen Taos's current nationwide average price is $21,351, and over the past year that average reached a low of $20,999. Recently, prices have come down for the 2023, 2024, and 2025 models, making now a good time to shop recent model years.
Is the Volkswagen Taos a good car?
Yes — the Volkswagen Taos earns strong marks from owners, and its appeal centers on space, comfort, and everyday usefulness. The all-generations owner rating is 4.5/5 across every model year in the data.
Owners consistently praise the roomy cabin, good seat comfort, and practical cargo space, along with the Taos's fuel economy and composed driving feel. The model also gets credit for its stylish design and upscale-feeling interior, which helps it feel more polished than many small SUVs in its class.
Expert reviews rate the 2022 and 2023 models among the highest across all years.
The main tradeoffs are the powertrain's hesitant response, the infotainment system's frustrating user experience, and the value equation on higher-priced versions.
37.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
Are Volkswagen Taos models reliable?
Owners consistently describe the Taos as a roomy, comfortable SUV with good gas mileage and a pleasant everyday driving character. Expert coverage also points to a well-finished cabin, useful practicality, and a strong sense of value when the equipment level lines up with the price.
- Owners rate the Volkswagen Taos between 4.0 and 5.0 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.
For used buyers, the biggest long-term ownership risk is concentrated in the earlier model years, so a later, better-sorted example is the safer path.
What should I look for when buying a used Volkswagen Taos?
Across all model years, accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.5% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
| Model Year | Accident-Free % |
|---|---|
| 2026 | 96.2% |
| 2025 | 93.8% |
| 2024 | 92.5% |
| 2023 | 89.7% |
| 2022 | 89.2% |
Key things to evaluate:
- Safety package: IQ.Drive on the 2023 Taos SE and SEL, with Front Assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, Lane Assist, Travel Assist, and Emergency Assist.
- Infotainment: wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus an 8-inch touchscreen on SE and SEL trims.
- Fuel efficiency: 26.8 mpg, coming up just short of the official EPA rating of 28 mpg in combined driving.
Which Volkswagen Taos trim should I buy?
The 2023 Volkswagen Taos offers these trims:
- S: The entry trim brings the 6.5-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth, Car-Net connected services, standard digital instrumentation, Front Assist, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert.
- SE: The best-value trim adds the 8-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless smartphone charging, and VW’s IQ.Drive collection of ADAS as standard equipment.
- SEL: The top trim adds the 10.25-inch display, native navigation, an eight-speaker Beats Audio premium sound system, 4Motion all-wheel drive, and the upscale look and feel of the most fully equipped version.
What Volkswagen Taos do most buyers choose?
The Volkswagen Taos years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2022.
| Model Year | Total Listings | Good + Great Deals % |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 4,204 | 37.6% |
| 2023 | 4,052 | 37.3% |
| 2022 | 2,792 | 36.7% |
| 2025 | 2,780 | 37.3% |
| 2026 | 1,521 | 36.2% |
| 2027 | 370 | 31.4% |
These higher-volume years tend to be the most popular used picks because they give you more inventory to compare, more pricing competition, and more chances to find the right trim and condition.
What is the Volkswagen Taos's resale value?
| Model Year | Current Avg. Price | Year-Over-Year Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | $23,938 | −14.02% |
| 2022 | $18,436 | −10.59% |
| 2024 | $20,952 | −7.67% |
| 2023 | $21,001 | −2.94% |
Prices are moving lower across the board, which creates better opportunities for used buyers. The sharpest drops are concentrated in the newer model years, while the older entries show smaller year-over-year changes. That pattern gives you a wider spread of value choices depending on how much you want to spend.
The 2023, 2024, and 2022 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
Is the Volkswagen Taos safe?
- 2023: 8/10
- 2022: 9/10
For the safest used buy, the 2022 model posts the highest confirmed score of 9/10.
Should I buy a used Volkswagen Taos now or wait for the next model?
Buy now if:
- Price trend: The 2025 model is at −14.02% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −7.67%.
- Deal availability: The 2025 model has 37.3% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 37.6%.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings at a current average price of $20,952. The Volkswagen Taos offers a roomy cabin, good seat comfort, and a practical, easy-to-live-with layout.
Consider waiting if:
- Powertrain/efficiency: Every 2023 Taos has a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine making 158 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque, and over the entire route, the test vehicle averaged 26.8 mpg, coming up just short of the official EPA rating of 28 mpg in combined driving.
- Tech: With SE and SEL trim, the infotainment system adds an 8-inch touchscreen equipping the Taos with Bluetooth support for multiple devices, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, SiriusXM 360L satellite radio service, and an added USB port.
- Safety: The Taos SE adds VW’s IQ.Drive collection of ADAS as standard equipment, and it equips the SUV with Lane Assist, Travel Assist, Emergency Assist, and an active version of blind-spot monitoring.
- Starting price: This year, 2023 VW Taos prices range from $24,155 to $34,535, not including a destination charge of $1,235.
If you're buying used today, the 2024 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.

I love the fact that it has heated seats, heated steering wheel and bright headlights for night time driving. A lot of good safety features as well. Overall, it's a great car with great features.

After few years with a VW Tiguan I bought me an Atlas , the first a good car , the second even better then I bought a Taos, big mistake. The Taos brakes are not as good as the Volkswagen family, also the suspension isn’t as good as the others Volkswagen, even Jetta has a better suspension than Taos . I end up trading in the Taos for an VW Atlas.

Why it stands out
The 2022 Volkswagen Taos stands out as a small crossover that lands between the usual size categories, being bigger than most small SUVs but smaller than most compact SUVs. That positioning gives it a practical appeal for buyers who want more space and utility without moving up to a larger vehicle, and Volkswagen also emphasizes that the Taos brings more space, comfort, and utility than the competition. It is also presented as an affordable option in a crowded market where shoppers are increasingly looking for crossovers.
Its strengths are straightforward: it is fuel-efficient, offers plenty of cargo space, and includes affordable advanced safety features. Those qualities make it easy to see why it would attract buyers who value everyday usefulness and running costs. The tradeoffs are just as clear, though, with an irritating transmission and unintuitive technology standing out as the main drawbacks.
