That thicker new steering wheel has a hands-free sensor. You could take your hands off the wheel and it would navigate itself for a while before it sounds a warning to place your hands back on. It's a pretty sweet feature if you dozed off the wheel while driving long distance.

Great video!! You really did a good job talking about the small details and the Tech!! 2 thumbs up my friend!! 👍👍

I have a 2019 R-Line SEL Premium 4 motion with 20" Wheel package. Absolutely love it!

Love this car. Great review!

Its all in the details my friend and you sir don't miss any, you're definitely doing it right. Great vid, you got a subscribe from me.

Great review, watching this as I’m getting ready to buy myself the ‘21 Arteon R line.

It's on my short list, so this was helpful. Nice review/ overview of a handsome artful car.

Spot on... Nicely done, Guv'Na!!!

Amazing video, btw does it comes with HUD ?

Almost got one back in 2019,it drives great and looks amazing in person! Just wish they would have come down a little in price.They wanted full MSRP for SEL Premium R-line that I wanted.I may reconsider it when my current leased vehicle comes due,I just wanted them to come down a little more and I would have done the deal,the current car I have got many rebates and incentives so couldnt pass it up where there werent any on this car and the car I got is slightly quicker with a decent turbo in it although this is more refined vehicle overall and its beautiful car in person especially if you need a bigger 4 door as Im larger guy and like the seating and room and the design has great storage space almost like an SUV.

That Neat little studded bar is called a Bumperdillo

Love it!!

Definitely want a VW Arteon SEL Premium R-Line after I pay off my Nissan Altima

13:41 that would be Auto Hold Button on Golf 7’s I don't know though what it would be on this one.

Lovely and amazing. It is like an Audi A7 with nearly half price. I think it should take a bigger market share from Mercedes E Class & BMW 5 series globally. Thanks for the video review.

Great review, just can’t wait till they update the Passat which is in dyeing need of a major refresh.

Nice video and vehicle. I like it

Love it ...

TOP & BEST VW Arteon ~nice car really very very good

Anymore the low profile wheel/tire combo scares me. I would take an 18" wheel with more sidewall as soooo much more practical, esp. since so many cars do not have spare tires anymore. Also, is there any form of HUD available? I have never had one, don't know how practical they really are, but the technophile in me kind of wants one.

13:45 that blank button behind the Parking Brake is for Auto Hold on my 2019 Golf R (holds the brakes and keeps brake lights illuminated even when you take your foot off the brake. Useful at long stop lights/in drive thru's). Not sure why they left that out on the Arteon

I’m not sure why Volkswagen removed the auto hold button/feature. My 2011 VW CC had it and I definitely miss that feature in my 2019 Tiguan SEL premium. I see more manufacturers are including them now. Just not sure why Volkswagen would remove it. My CC also had 12 way front power seats, yet my 2019 top trim Tiguan has manual passenger seat. I don’t get it VW. Oh and the CC had DSG transmission!

Leasing a 2019 Jetta R-line... want to trade in right now though.

Nice video bro.

I’m actually now looking for a lightly used 2019 model just because it still has a better warranty.

What’s with the change from last years Dynaudio to HK? Are the components speakers and amp the same? The Dynaudio was amazing in previous gen VW products. Is it just a badging change or a cheaper system?

What is your take on a tall driver for this car? Like 6'2..

Waiting for the 316bhp R version to drop in the UK!

Wait for the 2022 if you want 300hp and 7spd DSG instead of 268hp w/ 8spd torque converter. It's definitely on my radar next year.

My VW Passat from 2012 has down projecting door logos, so that is just a newer design. ;)

Boo garage door opener?

Thanks from rolling out of your nap to shoot this video.

I think it’s time to trade a cc for the premium version of his car

‘Super Premium’ X22

I do like the car...u just have an issue with reliability. I had a Passat and loved it but the problem was that the parts department knew me by my first name. That's not good.

this calld passat cc facelift

it's arTeon not arDEON

never understood why anyone would get this.... sure its a nice VW, but for that MSRP price you can get a A5 sportback prestige O_o

It’s a beautiful design, but it has a lot of plastic into the cabin! It’s a premium car, it shouldn’t be like that.

Why can’t we just stop complaining about stupid stuff and rejoice that this is the only European vw we’ll probably ever see. Mainly cause vw knows Americans are cheap!!!!! Bye bye Touareg people rather spend 100K on a Tahoe with a crappie Cadillac badge then 60K on a well built European suv. Then when they take the car away from the American market like the Touareg people wake up and what one. Tech that’s all you hear today,I’m old school and the se model is just fine for anyone… people are weird and picky.

I know this is subjective but the wheels look absolutely ridiculous. They turn the whole slick look into a clown car. If this car was on my shopping list I would have to budget a replacement for this hot mess on top of the price of the vehicle. Not to mention the 35 profile. Why. I don’t get this obsession with large wheels. It always impacts performance, comfort and economy.

I'd rather buy a hyundai sonata n line or a Honda accord

No reason to get this over a Kia Stinger GT or the competition

Good looking car just like the previous Arteon, but they didn't change anything about it that would actually make it sell. Still no DSG transmission and no true R version with more hp...

If the media system is anything like Audi’s MMI your home link should be embedded in the MMI ... I couldn’t imagine VW not adding this feature on their “premium” coupé
