Just in time for the first clients that shelled out at least $22,995 (MSRP) for a 2022 Taos, Volkswagen has decided to reveal the Taos Basecamp Concept. It’s both a one-off adventurous design study and a quick peek at an upcoming accessories package. Surprised? Of course not, considering the company’s claimed success with the Atlas Basecamp accessories line. 8 photos
Back in 2019, Volkswagen showcased at the New York International Auto Show the Atlas Basecamp concept, a project that was clearly aimed at people who love to spend as much time as possible enjoying the great outdoors. The positive reception then brought along with it the Atlas Basecamp accessories line.
The concept previews some of the accessories that will be offered for the Taos.
The new Volkswagen Taos will be hitting US showrooms soon and it s expected to be a big hit. It will be VW s most affordable SUV in North America and is a solid option for those not ready to transition to the fully electric ID.4 or customers lamenting the fact that more affordable versions of the new Golf 8 won t be sold here.
However, what the Taos is not is a true off-roader or a rugged adventure vehicle - but maybe it can be. VW has just taken the covers off the Taos Basecamp Concept, which the brand says hints at a future accessories package. This new concept makes its debut this week between May 20 and 23 in Helen, Georgia.
