The Volkswagen Taos is the perfect vehicle for drivers who value the importance of tire pressure. Every day a whopping 33% of drivers drive on at least one under-inflated tire. Properly maintained tires can give you better fuel economy, improved vehicle performance and most importantly increased safety.
For those reasons, Volkswagen recommends using a digital gauge to check your pressure every month as well as before any long drives. Doing so will ensure that tire pressure is appropriate for both road and weather conditions and help improve driving conditions in any situation. Taking the time to correctly install, inflate and maintain your Volkswagen Taos’s tires is well worth it.
The correct tire pressure for a Volkswagen Taos sport utility vehicle depends on the tire size and year of purchase. The recommended range of air pressure for the Volkswagen Taos is between 37 pounds per square inch (PSI) or 2.55 bar or 255 kilopascals (KPA) to 41 PSI or 2.83 bar or 283 KPA.
As the Volkswagen Taos is available in 6 different trim levels and has 5 stock tire sizes, it’s important to check the owner’s manual or the tire information placard on the driver’s side door jamb for the correct tire pressure based on the specific production year and tire specifications. The tire information placard will provide the recommended pressure for both front and rear tires, as well as the spare tire if applicable.
Maintaining the correct tire pressure is important for safe driving, as underinflated or overinflated tires can lead to decreased handling and uneven tire wear. It is recommended to check the tire pressure regularly, at least once a month, and before long trips or when carrying heavy loads. Proper tire pressure can also improve fuel efficiency and extend the life of the tires.
- PSI – pounds per square inch (lbf/in2). 10 psi = 68.95 kPa/0.6895 bar
- BAR – one bar nearly equal to one atmosphere. 1 bar = 100 kPa/14.504 psi
- KPA – kilopascals is a metric unit of pressure. 100 kPa = 1 bar/14.504 psi
Volkswagen Taos has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS).
