Compare the 2023 VW Arteon with Competing Mid-Size Sedans in Grapevine, TX
Part automobile and part sculpture, the 2023 Volkswagen Arteon is a fan-favorite for Dallas and Fort Worth commuters. But how does Volkswagen's premium mid-size sedan surge past competitors like the Audi A5, Kia Stinger, and Acura TLX?
Principle Volkswagen of Grapevine breaks down these new sedans head-to-head so any car buyer can make a well-informed decision. Car shoppers from the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex will find a wide selection of new Volkswagen Arteon sedans for sale in Grapevine, TX after seeing how the VW Arteon tops the competition.
VW Arteon vs. Audi A5 Sportback
- Harness more power riding from Grapevine, TX to your Dallas destination in a Volkswagen Arteon, which produces 300 ponies and 295 pound-feet of torque through a 2.0-liter TSI® turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. This performance output easily tops the 201 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque produced by the Audi A5 Sportback's 2.0-liter 4-cylinder turbocharged TFSI® engine.
- Each new sedan earns 34 miles per gallon as Grapevine, TX commuters take Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex highways. The Audi A5 Sportback's seven-speed S tronic® automatic transmission is similar to the Volkswagen Arteon's 7-speed DSG® automatic transmission, and 4MOTION® all-wheel drive in Volkswagen's sedan offers identical capabilities to quattro® all-wheel drive in Audi's model.
- The Volkswagen Arteon shows off an aerodynamic fastback design that's similar to the profile of the Audi A5 Sportback. There's more room for Grapevine, TX drivers in a Volkswagen Arteon, which offers 27 cubic feet of cargo space behind the 60/40 split rear seat, compared to 22 cubic feet in the Audi A5 Sportback.
- VW Digital Cockpit Pro in the Arteon mirrors the layout of Audi virtual cockpit plus in the A5 Sportback. The Audi MMI® touch display (A5 Sportback) and Discover Media touchscreen (VW Arteon) give Grapevine, TX drivers intuitive technology at their fingertips.
VW Arteon vs. Acura TLX
- Only offering 34.9 inches of rear legroom, 93.4 cubic feet of passenger volume, and 13.5 cubic feet of trunk space, the Acura TLX isn't as roomy as the Volkswagen Arteon, which tops all comparative figures (40.2 inches, 96.5 cubic feet, 27 cubic feet). If Grapevine, TX Volkswagen Arteon owners have long items to fit in their sedan, there is a removable deck cover, allowing them to pass through the cabin.
- The Acura TLX's outdated infotainment touchpad is much less advanced than the Volkswagen Arteon's Discover Media 8-inch color touchscreen. Each sedan includes Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration.
- Earning 34 highway miles per gallon, the Volkswagen Arteon is the more fuel-efficient sedan for Dallas commuters, compared to the Acura TLX, rated for 31 miles per gallon.
- Base models for the Acura TLX only produce 272 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. Each sedan uses a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, but the VW Arteon outputs 300 ponies and 295 pound-feet of torque.
VW Arteon vs. Kia Stinger
- Have better handling driving around the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex in a Volkswagen Arteon, which includes DCC adaptive chassis control, an XDS® Cross Differential System, and more nuance compared to the Kia Stinger, which is missing helpful performance features. Each new sedan produces 300 horsepower, but the Kia Stinger only earns 32 highway miles per gallon. When powered by a gas-guzzling twin-turbocharged V6 engine, the Kia Stinger earns 18/25 miles per gallon.
- The Kia Stinger also offers a versatile interior with folding seats, but Kia's sedan can only expand to a max cargo volume of 41 cubic feet, compared to 56 cubic feet in the Volkswagen Arteon.
- The Kia Stinger doesn't offer a driver information display as intuitive as the high-resolution setup of the Volkswagen Arteon's VW Digital Cockpit Pro.
