The mildly redesigned headlights were their plan for this sneak peek but that’s a new colour.

Can't tell the difference in the headlights?

Could be anything really.

They're doing tons of little teaser shorts on youtube ahead of the announcement on Wednesday next week.

It looks like "Visual Green" they do on the Taigo

Encouraged by the interior tease on LinkedIn - seats like the ID.4 / ID.5 and Audio by Beats. Really really hope that VW Uk will import these and not force us towards the Cupra Born. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/volkswag ... er_desktop

The interior update looks rather nice! It looks like the same front seats as Cupra used in the Born. It definitely looks more premium initially.

Good point - I noticed the sound was the same but I struggled to remember where I'd seen the banded material.

It also looks like they're using a darker coloured version of the same material in the centre of the seats as they added in the MY22.5/23 seat update, so the white/pale grey stitch stands out a bit more

Videos of the new facelift have just started to be released.

Seems the UK won’t be seeing the larger central screen…

“Due to the right-hand drive configuration the UK screen will be 10” (12” screen shown will not be available).”

It'll be interesting to see what is omitted from the UK spec/options list compared to our European cousins & how the options pricing shakes out.

The interior update looks good, but overall not a massive change (excluding the top sport seat option - which I think were available in Europe as an option prior to the facelift anyway). Hopefully the new materials live up to the expectations over the outgoing model.

We can rule out the right hand drive relocation of headlight switch then.

I like the front bumper... Looks a bit more agressive. Not bothered about the black bump on the hood.

Screen definitely relates to light switch placement on RHD models utter laziness from VW

Looking good so far
