The Refreshed 2025 Volkswagen Taos Has a Reasonable Starting Price

The Volkswagen Taos is getting an update for 2025 that brings fresh styling, new tech, and a more powerful engine. Today, we learned pricing for the automaker’s smallest crossover, and it remains a relatively value-forward pick in a hyper-competitive segment. The new Taos is expected to land on dealers’ lots in late 2024.

The 2025 Taos starts at $24,995 for the base S trim, and AWD pushes the price to $26,695. Stepping up to the SE Trim takes the price to $27,895 with front-wheel drive and $29,595 with AWD. VW offers an SE Black trim for 2025, which costs $30,145 and $31,845, respectively, and the top SEL trim comes standard with AWD for $34,695. All of those prices are subject to a $1,425 destination charge.

VW refreshed the Taos’ styling for the 2025 model year, giving it a reshaped front bumper and updated grille with an available LED light bar. LED projector headlights became standard for all trims, and the taillights feature a connecting light bar with an illuminated VW logo. The SUV also picked up three new paint colors and a couple of new wheel designs.

A new dash design houses the standard eight-inch floating infotainment display, and VW said it added more insulation to reduce cabin noise levels. Two-tone upholstery is available for the S trim, while the SE trims get synthetic leather and cloth. The top SEL trim gets leather, with either a solid dark blue or two-tone black/grey color scheme.

The turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine got a power boost for 2025, climbing from 158 to 174 horsepower. It also has improved piston rings and fuel injectors, a revised turbo housing, and a more robust intercooler.
