A fastback sedan with grand-touring poise
Drive an Arteon
A Volkswagen Arteon rental puts you in a fastback sedan with four-door-coupe lines and grand-touring manners. The liftback profile catches eyes, and a 300 hp turbo four gives you confident passing power. It's a standout among Volkswagen car rental options on Turo, with poised road manners that make long highway stretches feel easy.
On Turo, you book your Arteon from a local vehicle owner, pick the model year and trim, and arrange pickup or delivery. Volkswagen ended US sales of the Arteon after the 2024 model year, so this final-generation fastback is a rare chance to drive a modern classic.

Turbocharged power with a poised ride
The Arteon pairs a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder with 300 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque, which arrives from just 2,000 rpm. A seven-speed DSG dual-clutch transmission handles the shifts, and front-wheel drive comes standard. Available 4MOTION all-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels for added traction when the weather turns.
Fastback design with a glowing grille
The Arteon's roofline slopes in one long sweep toward the tail, giving the sedan the silhouette of a four-door coupe. That shape hides a practical secret (it's a liftback, so the rear glass rises with the hatch). Up front, an illuminated light bar stretches across the grille and gives the car a signature look after dark.
Available 20-inch wheels fill the arches and sharpen the stance even further. Pull up to a hotel entrance or a client meeting, and the Arteon reads as more upscale than a typical midsize sedan. If wheel size matters to you, check the listing photos and trim details before you book.
Cabin comfort for five
The Arteon seats five, and its cabin rewards every row with thoughtful comfort features. Depending on trim, the driver's seat can offer a massage function, and ventilated front seats help you stay cool on hot afternoons. Heated rear seats keep passengers in back comfortable on chilly mornings.
Available 30-color ambient lighting lets you set the mood after sunset. Go calm for a late drive home or warmer for a night out. Equipment varies by trim and model year, so check the listing to see which comfort features come with the Arteon you're booking.
Stand out with an Arteon
The Arteon makes a great rental when you want more style than a standard midsize sedan without giving up practicality. It suits road trips, business travel, and date nights, and its liftback opens to 27.2 cu ft of cargo space with the seats up. Find yours on Turo, the car rental marketplace where you book the exact car you want, exactly where you need it.
Top Arteon features
Tech and cockpit
The Arteon's top features cover tech and cockpit, driver assistance, and ride and road-trip practicality.
Recent Arteons come standard with Digital Cockpit Pro, a 10-inch digital display behind the steering wheel. It keeps key driving information right in your line of sight, so your eyes stay closer to the road. Spend a minute exploring the display before you pull away, and the cockpit will feel familiar from the first mile.
Audio fans should look for listings with the available Harman Kardon sound system. It gives playlists, podcasts, and road-trip singalongs the soundtrack they deserve on long highway stretches. Audio equipment varies by trim and model year, so check the listing details if premium sound sits high on your wish list.
Driver assistance
Every recent Arteon comes standard with IQ.DRIVE, Volkswagen's suite of driver assistance technologies. It's built to support you on long drives, adding an extra layer of help when the miles start to pile up. Treat IQ.DRIVE as backup for your own attention behind the wheel.
Keep your hands on the wheel, your eyes on the road, and your focus on the drive ahead. Before your trip, browse the vehicle settings so you know how the features work and how to adjust them. A quick check in the driveway beats scrolling through menus at 70 mph.
Ride and road-trip practicality
The Arteon's DCC adaptive damping lets you dial the ride toward comfort on the highway or toward sharper control on winding roads. Pair that with 25 combined mpg on 4MOTION models and a 17.4-gallon tank, and you'll spend less time hunting for gas stations.
The liftback hatch opens to 27.2 cu ft of cargo space with the rear seats up. That's room for suitcases, a cooler, and a weekend's worth of gear, with a wide opening that makes loading bulky bags easy. For a long weekend away or a week of client visits, the Arteon balances comfort and cargo without asking you to compromise.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Arteon
Get to know your Arteon
Before you rent an Arteon, check the model year and trim, plan for premium fuel, and learn the tech before you leave. These tips help you get the most from every mile.
Start with the model year and trim on the listing. Arteons from 2019–2021 used an earlier powertrain, so specs and features vary by year. You'll also find a liftback hatch rather than a traditional trunk lid, which gives you a wider opening for luggage.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
