I really like diesel cars, as they have improved acceleration and torque. However, I’m also a Volkswagen fan and I’m in the market for an SUV. Does Volkswagen currently offer a diesel SUV in their lineup?

Unfortunately, Volkswagen does not make a diesel SUV in the United States. While they still offer diesel options in Europe, the 2015 Volkswagen diesel scandal means that diesel SUVs—or any other car for that matter—are no longer available in the United States. To that effect, VW hasn’t sold a diesel vehicle in the United States since 2015.
However, Volkswagen currently offers five SUVs in its lineup, and all of them have the space, acceleration, and power that you might crave:
Volkswagen ID.4 (all-electric)
Volkswagen Atlas
Volkswagen Atlas Sport
Volkswagen Tiguan
Volkswagen Taos
Today, only a handful of diesel SUVs remain, but if you’re dead-set on a VW, make sure to keep your
