2023 Arteon Safety
At the IIHS, the Volkswagen Arteon stands out as a Top Safety Pick+ award winner for 2022, and it still scores a Good in every single crashworthiness category for 2023. Strangely enough, the NHTSA doesn't have a safety review of the Volkswagen Arteon.
2023 Arteon Key Safety Features
As standard, every model comes with a rearview camera, tire-pressure monitoring, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, traffic sign recognition, front and rear parking sensors, and forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking. A post-collision system is fitted too, along with rain-sensing wipers and the IQ.Drive semi-autonomous hands-on driving system. Also standard are adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, and pedestrian detection, while available features include park assist and a surround-view camera.

2023 Arteon Reliability
At the time of writing, the 2022-2023 Arteon had not been subject to any recalls yet. The 2021 Arteon was recalled four times, however. Two of these recalls pertained to a faulty rearview camera image, while another related to a pressure input rod on a brake booster that could be loose. Finally, the TPMS was found to possibly misidentify a tire with low air pressure.
