Check Out the New Changes to 2023 Volkswagen Models

Looking for a New Volkswagen? Here are the Most Notable Upgrades

If you’ve been shopping for new cars for sale in Houston, then you know that the 2023 models are already showing up on showroom floors at a Volkswagen dealership near you. Drivers looking for new cars for sale will be able to check out the latest models of the VW Arteon, VW ID.4, VW Atlas, and many more.

A slate of new model year vehicles typically means that the vehicles from the previous year are available at a slightly lower price point. So, the question becomes: “What are the main differences between the 2022 and 2023 models of Volkswagen?”

Should you go with the 2022 model, or should you pay a little bit more for the latest edition of the vehicle you’re looking at?

Let’s break down some of the most noteworthy changes, and then how to find the best new cars for sale at a Volkswagen dealership near you.

The Advancement of the VW ID.4

For those of you who haven’t kept up with all the press the Volkswagen ID.4 has been getting over the past couple of years, it’s the first all-electric release under the VW banner and was the winner of the 2021 World Car of the Year Award. Since its American roll-out, it’s been one of the hottest selling cars in the country. The future-forward design, elevated feature package, and generous single-charge range (275 miles on the Pro model) make the ID.4 the ideal choice for the driver who’s been waiting for an affordable EV that packs a punch.

Now on the verge of the 2023 model release, there have been a couple of new developments. It is being reported that the 2023 iteration of the VW ID.4 will introduce a new, more affordable baseline trim level, starting around $35,000. This undercuts the current ID.4 standard edition by roughly $2,500.

Additionally, the new ID.4 models will be manufactured in Chattanooga, TN. Volkswagen has brought their manufacturing to a stateside locale so that drivers can take advantage of the electric vehicle tax credit (up to $7,500).

What’s New on Other 2023 VW Models?

For the 2023 model year of VW vehicles, don’t expect sweeping redesigns or drastic changes. Many of the vehicles in the VW lineup are getting upgraded in their technology and features with mild to moderate cosmetic changes.

For instance, the 2023 VW Arteon will be available in three trims and will include a better offering of features in its standard trim. They include heated steering wheel, fog lights, and LED headlights, just to name a few.

The 2023 iteration of the VW Golf GTI will be available in four trims, including a special limited edition 40th anniversary trim to celebrate one of the world’s most impressive hatchbacks. The 2023 VW Golf GTI will feature active cornering headlights, LED fog lights, and LED headlights with minor cosmetic changes. Meanwhile, the 2023 VW Golf R will also be making minor cosmetic changes.

The VW Atlas and VW Atlas Cross Sport are two of the most popular new cars for sale in Houston. They’ve got plenty of storage, power, and towing capacity for the most demanding of SUV drivers. For 2023, VW engineers are giving them both an upgrade by including Digital Cockpit Pro on Technology models.

The VW Jetta reigns supreme as the most fuel-efficient vehicle in the VW lineup that doesn’t run on an electric motor. After getting a fairly comprehensive redesign in 2022, the 2023 model of the VW Jetta will add remote start on the SE model with a few cosmetic changes.

The VW Taos made its debut not that long ago, so drivers shouldn’t expect any major overhauls of this SUV for at least a few years. For the upcoming 2023 model, VW will be adding some additional features across all three trim levels. They include front assist, rear traffic alert, and blind spot monitoring.

Similar to the Volkswagen Jetta, the VW Tiguan just had a refresh in 2022. For the 2023 SE R-Line model of the Tiguan, drivers will be able to get 19-inch black alloy wheels.
