What is the Chinese name for the Volkswagen Arteon?
2 Answers
The all-new Volkswagen Arteon does not have a Chinese name, as it is marketed as the Volkswagen CC in China. Below is an introduction to the Volkswagen CC: Exterior: It features a groundbreaking U-shaped front grille design with chrome accents integrated into the full LED headlight assembly. The A-pillars seamlessly connect with the headlights, complemented by pronounced lines on the hood. The new-generation CC adopts a unique hood opening mechanism that extends the shut line to the wheel arches. Features: Includes steering wheel heating, lane change assist, seat ventilation, blind spot monitoring, ambient lighting, active safety systems, adaptive cruise control, and automatic parking assist.
In our country, the Volkswagen Arteon is commonly referred to as the Volkswagen Arteon, without a specific standalone Chinese translated name, unlike models such as the Passat which have direct translations. As an automotive enthusiast, I've seen the actual car at auto shows—it's essentially the successor to the Volkswagen CC, positioned as a high-end coupe with a particularly sleek, somewhat fastback design that gives it a very sporty look. This model was introduced to the domestic market around 2017 and boasts a robust powertrain, including a 2.0T version that delivers an exhilarating driving experience. In China, it's popularly called Arteon or Volkswagen Arteon, and even sales staff at dealerships refer to it as such during test drives. I think keeping the original name works well—it's simple, memorable, and aligns perfectly with its fashionable positioning. However, it's worth noting that some tuning shops or car clubs occasionally refer to it as the wagon variant, but that's just a derivative. Overall, the Arteon represents Volkswagen's shift toward luxury and is quite eye-catching.
