By CARSIFU | 9 January 2020


WOLFSBURG: The new Volkswagen Arteon R-Line Edition is limited to 250 units and comes with exclusive features and a selection of four powerful turbocharged engines with 140 kW/190 PS to 200 kW/272 PS characterise the special edition, which is available from EUR 55,970 (in Germany).

The expressive two-tone Moonstone Grey finish with black roof is reserved exclusively for the Arteon R-Line Edition.

The exterior finish is rounded off with 20-inch Rosario alloy wheels and darkened rear windows.

The interior is fitted out with the Nappa leather package and can be customised in terms of colour by means of ambient lighting.

As well as its navigation function, the Discover Pro infotainment system also features Wireless App-Connect, voice control and DAB+ digital radio reception.

Discover Pro and the Digital Cockpit (fully digital instruments) form a single entity similar to the Innovision Cockpit familiar from the Touareg.

Thanks to the keyless locking and starting system Keyless Access, the car key can remain in the driver’s pocket.

Standard high-tech systems for perfect comfort and safety: the Area View feature complete with rear view camera provides a view of the vehicle surroundings and facilitates manoeuvring, as does Park Assist.

Dynamic Road Sign Display, the lane change system Side Assist, the Autonomous Emergency Braking Front Assist and the predictive Adaptive Distance Control (ACC) increase safety in flowing traffic as well as increasing comfort and safety on lengthy journeys.

With the standard Dynamic Light Assist for the LED headlamps, the driver also enjoys the comfort of a dynamic cornering light and automatic main beam control.

The engine range of the Arteon R-Line Edition clearly focuses on the sporty flair of the Gran Turismo, with the four most powerful units of the series being available for the limited special edition.

They are all efficient 2.0-litre four-cylinder engines combined with a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox (DSG).

The range starts with a TSI petrol engine and a TDI turbocharged diesel, each with an output of 140 kW/90 PS.

The all-wheel-drive top-of-the-range diesel engine offers an output of 176 kW/240 PS, while the most powerful version is the Arteon R-Line Edition with the 2.0 TSI, providing a peak output of 200 kW/272 PS as well as all-wheel drive (4MOTION).

The ESC system has also been adapted. As in the sporty R models, it can now be completely deactivated.

The two most powerful versions of the Arteon R-Line Edition are fitted with what is currently the highest development stage of the adaptive chassis control DCC; the latter is optionally available for the 140 kW models.

The system allows the regulated dampers to be configured on a continuously variable basis from Comfort+ to Sport+ over and above the settings in the driving mode selection (Comfort, Normal, Sport, Individual).
