The Volkswagen Arteon is a car manufactured by German car manufacturer Volkswagen. Described as a large family car[2] or a mid-size car, it is available in five-door liftback or estate body styles.[6] The Arteon was unveiled on 6 March 2017, at the Geneva Motor Show, and at the Chicago Auto Show for the North American market.[7][8] It is direct successor to the CC; however, Volkswagen announced that the Arteon is positioned to be more upmarket than the CC.[9][10] The vehicle is based on the MQB platform.
Production of the saloon was discontinued in 2023. The wagon is to be continued until 2026.[11]
