How much cargo can handle this Kombi?
Ah, the VW Arteon – a striking concoction of German engineering that marries style with functionality. Now, let's not dilly-dally and dive into the all-important realm of boot space. After all, whether you're a weekend warrior with a penchant for antique oak chests or a parent with strollers to lug about, boot space matters. And the VW Arteon stands out in this regard, as we'll see.

VW Arteon - How has the boot space changed over the generations?
When it comes to the Arteon, it's been rather steady with its boot dimensions since its grand entrance onto the vehicular stage in 2017. From its initial 2017-2020 tenure to the 1st Generation's facelift that followed, there have been no border skirmishes in the land of luggage – both clock an identical 563 liters with the seats up and 1557 liters when folded. Quite generous, wouldn't you say? No mucking about with confusing alterations; a commendable consistency by VW for the Arteon.
The difference in Boot space between first generation (1.Generation) from 2017 and last generation (Arteon 1.Generation (1. Facelift)) from 2020 is 0 l.
The boot space of the current generation of Arteon is 590 l.

The boot space compared to other VW models
Within the Volkswagen parivaar, the Arteon doesn't play by the 'bigger is better' trope. Not when it's cheek by jowl with the likes of the cavernous VW Touareg boasting 810 liters or the VW Touran with an impressive 834 liters. But observe it among its siblings, and you'll note that it eclipses models like the VW Polo's 351 liters and absolutely dwarfs the wee VW up! with its pint-sized 251 liters. Moderation in all things, right in the middle, that's our Arteon.

How does the boot space of the VW Arteon compare to it's nearest competitors?
Line up the Arteon against its rivals from various garages, and it's a mixed bag of outcomes. Compared to the svelte Porsche Panamera, which has 445 liters, the Arteon stands taller with more room for your shopping sprees. But if you roll out the carpet for the Tesla Model S with its ginormous 745 liters, well, then our friend Arteon takes a polite bow in deference. And while we're at it, the Opel Insignia Grand Sport, sneaking close at 520 liters, is commendable but still has to look up to the Arteon's majestic carriage capacity.
