Other interior features include contrast stitching on the steering wheel and shift knob; steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters; metallic decor pieces; black headliner; stainless-steel sport pedal covers; and stainless-steel door sills with the R-Line logo.
All Arteon models feature the Volkswagen 2.0-liter TSI(R) turbocharged engine and eight-speed automatic transmission. The Volkswagen advanced 4Motion(R) all-wheel-drive system is available as an option on every trim level.
The Arteon is expected to go on sale in the Fall of 2018 and the R-Line package will be available at launch.
