Read more2022 Volkswagen Taos vs. 2022 Honda HR-V: More Value, More Efficiency
The Taos brings efficiency, space and versatility to an already perfect SUV lineup at Volkswagen. It features unique exterior styling as well as technologies and amenities encompassed in a German engineered chassis that surpass every rival in the segment. And even though the Taos is small in size, it is very spacious for passengers as well as cargo.
Here, we compare the 2022 Taos to the 2022 Honda HR-V.
The 2022 Volkswagen Taos brings more to the table
The Taos is powered by a new 1.5-litre turbocharged engine that produces 158 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. It is as powerful as it is efficient and is standard across the model lineup.
The Honda HR-V isn’t about performance. All trims are powered by a small 1.8-litre naturally aspirated engine that can only output 141 horsepower and just 127 lb-ft of torque. That is quite a difference in performance compared to the Taos.
The 2022 Volkswagen Taos also delivers in terms of driving dynamics. FWD Taos models feature an 8-speed transmission, and AWD models receive a quick-shifting 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The Honda HR-V uses a continuously variable transmission that provides a much blander ride.
And while efficiency is very important, the Taos delivers on all fronts. The FWD drive Taos only uses 6.6 L/100 km on the highway fuel consumption rating, topping the HR-V's highway rating of 7.0 L/100 km.
The 2022 Volkswagen Taos is roomier and more advanced than the Honda HR-V
Passengers inside the 2022 Taos will benefit from superior comfort thanks to better seating, but also more head and shoulder room than the HR-V.
Whether you’re driving around the city for your daily errands or taking a weekend off at the cottage, the Taos has the cargo volume you need to bring everything along. The Taos includes 1,877 litres of cargo volume behind the rear seats. The Honda HR-V offers less possibilities with only 1,665 litresin this metric.
The 2022 Volkswagen Taos also offers more standard safety and technologies than the Honda HR-V, making it the ideal small family vehicle everyone will love. Come see it today! You can shop for your car online with us. Our representatives are waiting for your call and can answer all your questions.
