This is (perhaps) an example of what can happen on common platforms that provide economy of scale at the engineering level...variety in styling and packaging for niche products that are still profitable in low numbers...

Yeah, this is a wagon. Wagons aren’t sexy though, so...

Nice. I still prefer my Sandy of the VW MQB platformed cars.
Ye’, may not look all that sporty, but the Sportline does.
Ye’, but that’s styling. It’s not 300bhp performance. True, but it is can be tuned and given more, up to 540bhp from the 2.0 petrol to be precise.

Is this a design sketch from VW? Or a fan photoshop? Either way, I want it.

On a related note, I saw my first panamera wagon, and looked amazing.
Arteon, wayne!

Nice that it will exist, but I predict only about a 1% chance it comes to the US (and in that 1%, it’s lifted and has extra body cladding)

Noooo words mean things! It’s a very nice WAGON. America isn’t getting these, I assume?

That does look good, but sedan to sedan, the A rteon wins hands down.

I’d be surprised if anyone does.

Which is why the Arteon came about. Skoda Superb sales were taking away from VW Passat sales.
Why would you have a bland Passat when you could have a cheaper Superb, better looking Superb, more spacious Superb, etc...
But VW need ed to keep the Passat for those that wanted them, they are still a big seller.

The base model is already out on the roads uncovered. The sleek look of the sedan just doesn’t seem to translate well to the wagon.

Neat, though, cool light-bar aside, the front end is a bit much. I prefer my VWs understated. Of course, not coming to the US, and if it did it’d be at least $50k, so meh

Aggressive outer-space humpback whale has joined the comments section!
That’s actually pretty cool. If it’s sold in the USA with the big Arteon R motor that’s been rumored, it could be fun too.

I too was skeptical. So many of these are fake but get picked up as news all the same. And I don’t know why they were so shy about their source.
It is also, as other commenters have said, not a shooting brake.
