You cannot be more middle-class than owning arteon.

@@jakublulek3261 You can't be more un-likeable than sorting people into "classes" and especially bashing someone for being "middle class". "middle class" is literally the most common standard, so I don't get what's so bad about it. I bet you're also "middle class", but you try to look like "upper class", which is even worse than being just regular "middle class".

@@TeodorKubena I am dirty working class, mate, and I see people like that every day. And I work with them and for them. I love how most of them think that because they have more money than you, they are better people. And are furious when you don't bow to theyr every whim, or even argue with them when they are unreasonable. But I am my own boss, and I have other ventures than serving them, so I can say them to fuck off if I want. They know it, but they need me, so compromise could be made. Pretty funny power politics.

Ford is probably the first to feel the heat with their mustang abomination

@ZionHillCalling By station wagon, Jason probably means those big wood panel things with a small block V8. With 3 row seating. That's the American definition of a station wagon

Na, that already came in 2008. SUV hate. We see them now because car companies are wringing the last drops if profit from the concept. After this we will be lead to the self driving 'coaches'. Such as the new lexus executive van.

SUVs are overrated. Millennials and Zoomers never cared about them to begin with. It was suburban soccer moms who made them popular. Now that the younger generations are facing increasing costs of living and student debt, the last thing that they want is a $30k+ hard to park gas guzzler that they'll only drive on city roads.

In a couple of years when us Gen Z/young millennials can afford new cars SUVs will die out pretty quickly. Don’t know a single person younger than 30 that dreams of SUVs lol

I asked a friend who works for VW. He said, its bullshit. VW would never ever made that just to make it look like a smile. Just because it would cost money. Even if it would cost only 1ct per car, they wouldnt do it. Because saving money is a real thing for VW. So that "smile" has to have a more practical use.

Stephen Pasquale He really is trying to sell autographed post cards for $50 each. It's pathetic.

The scratch on his face...

@@RobertLeBlancPhoto listen to his justification.

America... 150 HP is normal and enough for most people here.

It's more because of the price and level of the car. For something like this (mid-high end range) there should be a V6 or at least an option to get one. Even if it has less horsepower then a turbocharged V4, response time will be faster and the acceleration would be smoother.

In Germany 180hp is the top of the line for the Most People. 2Liter Engines are enough for the Most. The Point is our fuel is expencive. 1liter= 1,50€

On my Skoda (Another VW brand that makes better looking, more reliable cars than VW seems to be able to manage, even though they're using the same parts bin and sells them cheaper than VW) those buttons are mostly filled, and with the buttons that look out of place in the middle of the dashboard. I was shocked the sunroof cover wasn't powered - it is on my much cheaper Skoda, which also has a full glass roof rather than the small one on the Arteon. Look for decent pictures of the Skoda Superb Kombi (Wagon) or hatch to see the best looking car VW make. Not sold in the US, but I suspect it would do well as the pricing is much more competitive - here's what happened when the previous model Superb (Mk2 Facelift) was brought over: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aZp2ZMhz29LKhKM.html - the new model is much better looking and it's not like the old one was doing badly in the looks department in the first place.

@@peglorsay skoda skoda skoda real fast and you'll say scrotum.

Definitely quicker than that. Skoda superb on the same engine and drivetrain does it in about 5.5 with launch control. I suspect VW don't really tune the ea888 to 270hp when it's 300on the golf R. So just understating it for PR reasons.
