How this compares
At 25 MPG combined, the 2020 Volkswagen Arteon ranks 4th of 8 large cars EPA rated for 2020 — 1 MPG better than the 24 MPG median for that group.
That places it squarely mid-pack for its class. Fuel cost is close enough to its rivals that other running costs will probably matter more.
EPA puts annual fuel spend at about $3,050, $400 more than the $2,650 typical for the class. Over five years at 15,000 miles a year that is roughly $15,250, a $2,000 difference against a class-median vehicle.
Tailpipe CO₂ is 354 grams per mile — about 5.3 metric tons over 15,000 miles of driving.
