Which Volkswagen Models Are the Most Popular?

The most popular Volkswagen models are the Tiguan compact crossover, the three-row Atlas SUV, the Taos subcompact crossover, and the Jetta compact sedan. Together, these four vehicles represent the vast majority of showroom interest, offering drivers a mix of turbocharged performance, standard IQ.DRIVE driver-assist safety technology, and available 4MOTION all-wheel drive tailored for Northeast Ohio weather.

Nationwide sales figures reflect this same customer preference, with crossover SUVs driving the brand’s volume. The Tiguan leads overall sales, closely followed by the family-sized Atlas and the agile Taos. Among traditional cars, the Jetta remains the brand’s top-selling passenger sedan due to its low cost of entry and exceptional fuel economy.

Drivers commuting down I-271 from Solon frequently seek out our crossover lineup for its higher seating position and all-weather capability. Our full model range provides versatile solutions whether you need a daily commuter or a spacious seven-passenger hauler. You can explore these top sellers in person at our showroom address in Streetsboro or speak directly with our team by giving us a quick call at (330) 342-7000.

What Engine Options and Cargo Dimensions Does the Volkswagen Tiguan Feature?
The Volkswagen Tiguan features a standard turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine generating 201 hp and 207 lb-ft of torque, while the high-performance SEL R-Line Turbo trim elevates output to 268 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. Inside the cabin, two-row configurations supply up to 34 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats, expanding to 73 cubic feet of maximum cargo capacity when the second row is folded flat.

Power delivery in standard front-wheel-drive configurations yields 207 lb-ft of torque, whereas equipping 4MOTION all-wheel drive increases torque response to 221 lb-ft on the 2.0T S, 2.0T SE, and 2.0T SE R-Line Black trims. Every engine pairs with an eight-speed Tiptronic® automatic transmission that provides smooth gear shifts during highway acceleration or stop-and-go city driving. For buyers seeking maximum performance, the top-tier 2.0T SEL R-Line Turbo 4Motion delivers a noticeable 268 hp boost for effortless highway passing power.

Interior versatility remains a hallmark of the Tiguan design. The wide rear liftgate opening makes loading large equipment, grocery hauls, or weekend recreation gear straightforward. Passengers enjoy supportive front seats with generous legroom, while the 60/40-split folding rear seat allows custom configurations for long items without sacrificing passenger seating.

Shoppers interested in previous model generations can also research pre-owned inventory options to compare dimensions and trim progression over recent model years.

What Features and Specifications Come Standard on the Volkswagen Taos?
The Volkswagen Taos comes standard with a 1.5L turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 174 hp, an eight-inch Digital Cockpit instrument cluster, push-button start, and the IQ.DRIVE suite of driver-assist features. Despite its compact footprint, the cabin provides 28 cubic feet of rear cargo space, expanding to 66 cubic feet with the rear seats folded.

Engineered for efficiency, front-wheel-drive models earn EPA ratings of 28 mpg city / 36 mpg highway, achieving up to 40 mpg in real-world highway testing. Choosing a 4MOTION all-wheel-drive trim adds an independent multilink rear suspension, replacing the standard torsion-beam setup for enhanced ride composure over rough pavement.

The Taos lineup includes the S, Sport, SE, and SEL trims. Standard comfort and infotainment features include:

IQ.DRIVE safety suite with standard blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and forward collision warning with automated emergency braking
Eight-inch infotainment touchscreen featuring Bluetooth connectivity, App Connect, and dual fast-charging USB-C ports
Automatic LED headlights and taillights for sharp visibility during night driving
Keyless access with push-button start and available satellite radio capabilities
Commuters traversing the rolling terrain near Bedford often favor the subcompact Taos for its tight turning radius and easy parking fit. If you plan on upgrading your current ride to a new subcompact crossover, you can get a competitive appraisal in minutes using our online trade-in appraisal tool.

What Is the Starting MSRP of the Volkswagen Jetta and What Standard Features Are Included?

Power comes from a fuel-efficient 1.5L turbocharged engine generating 158 hp paired with an eight-speed Tiptronic® automatic transmission.

Designed to maximize efficiency without compromising interior space, the Jetta delivers EPA estimates of 29 mpg city / 40 mpg highway, reaching up to 42 mpg on extended highway trips. The interior cabin accommodates five adult passengers comfortably, while the rear trunk offers 14 cubic feet of deep storage space—surpassing many hatchback alternatives in practical utility.

Standard highlights across the entry-level trim include:

158 hp turbocharged 1.5L engine with driving mode selection
Full IQ.DRIVE suite featuring adaptive cruise control and active lane-keeping assist
Leatherette-wrapped steering wheel with eco-mode efficiency settings

How Does the Volkswagen Atlas Compare to the Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport?
The primary difference between the Volkswagen Atlas and the Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport is passenger capacity and body style: the Atlas features a three-row cabin seating up to seven passengers with 97 cubic feet of maximum cargo space, while the Atlas Cross Sport uses a sportier two-row fastback design seating five passengers with 78 cubic feet of cargo room. Both models share the same 2.0L turbocharged engine producing 269 hp and a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 lbs.

Families comparing both models on our showroom floor often evaluate row access first. The three-row Atlas features one-touch slide-and-fold second-row seats, making third-row entry effortless even with child safety seats installed in the middle row. By comparison, the two-row Atlas Cross Sport trades that extra seating for a sleeker roofline, aggressive exterior styling, and expanded second-row legroom.

Both midsize SUVs come equipped with standard 4MOTION all-wheel drive, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and luxury amenities including heated and ventilated front seats, a 12-inch infotainment screen, and multi-zone automatic climate control.

To determine which body style fits your lifestyle, explore our new Atlas lineup or compare them directly against our new Atlas Cross Sport inventory online.
