Why Buy Volkswagen from USA

Did you know that Copart and IAAI auctions list between 200 to 500 Volkswagen vehicles daily? For instance, the average price for a 2018-2020 Arteon typically ranges from $8,000 to $12,000, which is about 35-40% cheaper than what you'd find in the European market. This makes buying a Volkswagen from the USA a practical choice for budget-conscious buyers.

What to Look for When Choosing

When purchasing a used Volkswagen, be mindful of the following tips:

• Check the mileage; ideally, look for models with under 70,000 miles for better longevity.
• Research specific years for known issues; for example, the 2018 Atlas had some reports of electrical problems.

How Much Does It Cost to Import Volkswagen

This brings your total cost to approximately $14,000 to $16,000. You can get a more precise estimate by using our calculator.
