The all-new sevenseater Teramont arrives in Oman

MUSCAT: Wattayah Motors, the official distributor of Volkswagen in Oman, announced the arrival of the much awaited allnew seven-seater Teramont to its showrooms. This vehicle is Volkswagen’s boldest and most robust SUV ever and represents a new chapter in the Volkswagen story – the year of the SUV. Showrooms will welcome the vehicle in time for the month of Ramadan.

The recently launched Atlas, the North American version of the Teramont, has received an unprecedented response from the industry and customers alike, in particular for its safety and connectivity, consequently verifying its suitability for the family market.

North American has witnessed positive sales results due to the introduction of the new sevenseater and is now one of their best-selling models, and even received the Best Family SUV award in 2018, in North America. Volkswagen Oman is optimistic that the seven-seater will be well-received across the country, due to its suitability for families’ everyday requirements and the competitive price point.

To ensure this is the perfect family SUV, the functionality of the seven-seat layout was paramount in the Teramont’s development. An innovative 1-step folding mechanism for the second row seats offers room for effortless third row entry and exit, even with child seats in place, and does not compromise on space and comfort.

Safety for families is priority in all Volkswagen vehicles, and passive safety features include the three-point seatbelts for all seats, side-curtain head-protection airbags that cover all three rows, and a reinforced safety-cage construction. From front to back, all these technologies work together to help keep families safe.

David Ryan, the GM of Volkswagen Oman, said, “This is truly the boldest and biggest vehicle Volkswagen has ever built, and the nature of the car is perfect for all the requirements the customers’ demands – and still expresses the true Volkswagen style and quality finish.

“The car couldn’t be coming at a better time, as we ramp up our SUV range and look forward to welcoming a completely new vehicle into the 7-seater segment here in the Sultanate. We now have a full-SUV line up from the compact Tiguan SUV to the large Teramont, and we can’t wait to display the cars in our showrooms and get them out on the roads.”

Teramont is available in four trim levels – an S with a 2.0L engine, and a 3.6L in S, SE and SEL, starting at OMR 13,684.
