The Arteon four-door coupe returns for 2021 with a few styling revisions. Among others, there’s an LED light strip on the grille connecting the headlights, as well as larger air intakes down low. Inside, the infotainment system has received a major update (MIB 3) and the touchscreen now measures eight inches. Under the hood is the same turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that produces 268 horsepower along with 4MOTION all-wheel drive.
