Reviewers generally praise the Arteon for its distinctive fastback styling and composed, refined driving dynamics that feel genuinely European in character. Interior materials and overall cabin fit tend to draw positive attention for the price point. Some reviewers note that the sloping roofline compromises rear headroom, and a few point to infotainment responsiveness as an area that falls short of the car's otherwise polished presentation.
