The diminutive turbo 1.5-liter four-cylinder produces the same 184 pound-feet of torque as before, but horsepower climbs from 158 to 174. Moreover, VW swapped out the all-wheel-drive model's reluctant seven-speed dual-clutch automatic for an eager eight-speed auto already found on the front-drive Taos.
