New 190hp Arteon is now available in Samaco showrooms across Saudi Arabia

A new entry-level grade with a 190hp engine joins the Volkswagen Arteon family as it arrives to the Middle East region this month. The notably dynamic fastback model made its debut to the public for the first time at the Geneva International Motor Show in March, and is now available at Samaco showrooms in both Base and Elegance models to accompany the existing 280hp Elegance 4-Motion and R-Line models. 

The all new Volkswagen Arteon combines a sporty charisma, great flexibility, excellent spaciousness in an emotional fastback design. Modifications differ slightly between the new entry level grades ‘Base (S)’, ‘Elegance (SE)’ and the top of the line Elegance 4-Motion (SEL), R-Line; nevertheless, the 190hp Arteon still scores with attributes such as excellent rear legroom and luggage compartment, front-wheel drive as well as digitalised controls. Further optional features include an Active Info Display (fully digital and programmable instruments), a head up display and a new Discover Pro Infotainment system with a 9.2-inch glass screen and gesture control. 

Andrew Savvas, Brand Director, Volkswagen Middle East said: “The Arteon 190hp follows the recent and successful introduction of the Arteon R-Line to the region – a vehicle which has certainly turned heads. The introduction of the Base and Elegance models with the 190hp engine has allowed us to offer our customers the full range to meet varying price points.”

Meanwhile John Arnold, General Manager of Volkswagen at Samaco Automotive Company, Volkswagen dealer in Saudi Arabia, said:”The new Arteon enjoys youth sports spirit more than ever, and is one of the most anticipated models for 2018.
