Volkswagen Lists Changes to 2023 Model Year Lineup

Volkswagen of America announces changes to its car and CUV lineup for the ’23 model year, saying each model has been introduced, redesigned or refreshed within the past two model years.

Volkswagen Digital Cockpit, a customizable high-resolution digital display for traditional dashboard gauges and additional features including fuel economy, navigation and phone connectivity is now standard across the lineup. All models also offer standard or available IQ.Drive driver-assistance technology, a hands-on semi-automated driving system, VW says.

The automaker also says for 2023 all models of the battery-electric ID.4 will be assembled at VW’s plant in Chattanooga, TN. VW will introduce a new entry version with a 62-kWh battery.
