translated from Spanish: Volkswagen showed images of new SUV to be manufactured in Argentina

Volkswagen is preparing for a major event that will take place soon in Argentina: the manufacture of the new SUV Taos, which will take place at the plant located in General Pacheco.While everything is being fine-rated novelties begin to arrive from the German firm, which has now decided to show exclusive images where the Taos is seen.However, you cannot appreciate the details completely since it is under camouflage to maintain the mystery.

Days ago, the German firm communicated globally the name for this first SUV of the manufacturing brand in Argentina for the entire region. With the introduction of Taos, the firm will complete a number of new models in Latin America under the “SUV offensive” strategy. Recently, images of the Taos to be manufactured in Mexico were known, from where units will be allocated to the North American market. Contrary to what is unveiled in our country, the Mexican variant is only shown with hidden logos.

The mechanics of the Argentine SUV consist of a 1.4 TSi engine with 150 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque, associated with a six-speed automatic box with front-wheel drive.

For the manufacture of Taos at the General Pacheco plant, an investment of $650 million was then announced. This sum of money is intended for the new MQB-A platform, a new paint plant and the development of local suppliers. It is scheduled for market in Argentina in the second quarter of next year.
