Fun SUV

This is our second Taos. The first one was a stripped-down basic model "complete with nothing" as they say, that was the only one available during the Covid panic. It needed $800 worth of brake work as the pads had worn down and damaged the rotors at 29K miles. I only say this since our current Taos will be in need of brake pads soon at 20k miles. VW extended the warranty on these to 24K or 2 years. So these will be covered. This is way too soon for brake pads, but as it is the only issue with our Taos I still give it a 4 rating since it is fun to drive, very safe, and has lots of back leg room and storage for a compact SUV. Don't know why it gets a low rating. from most reviewers. We love it. - 5.0
So far so good.

I have the 2023 vw Taos. I haven't had any issues so far in the 2 1/2 years owning it. I wish the car was a bit faster, but I think that's just a personal preference. I love how it looks and how it handles in the winter. It's a great winter vehicle. The phone start is amazing, along with the wheel and seat heaters. Overall, I'm pretty happy with it.
