    Rear Console Changes

    So found out something interesting today. For the new models of Arteon, they've changed the rear console (this is the bit under the rear air-conditioning controls).

    This is mine - 240v power (with euro connection, but works if you have an EU -> AU adapter), 12v socket and USB port.

    Friend of mine picked up his Arteon today - this is his - just a 12V socket.

    Talk about getting short changed. LOL

    Interesting.

    I'd be more pissed about the lack of launch control.

          It's there, but the button to access it quickly isn't there any more. It's buried in menu's on the infotainment now.
