These Are The Names Of Volkswagen's New Models

If VW follows its standard naming convention, the rest of the names have been filed for crossovers and SUVs. The names of these models always start with a T. There are some exceptions, like the Atlas, called the Teramont in other parts of the world. Examples include Tiguan, Touareg, Taos, Tavendor, T-Cross, and Tharu.

We also know that VW uses several sources for inspiration, including wind (Passat, Polo, and Scirocco), Latin (Arteon), and Greek mythology (Eos, Atlas, and Phaeton.)

According to our research,Tivasmeans nothing. It's commonly used as an acronym for Totally Implantable Venous Access System, though we can't see VW naming a car after a device used for blood transfusions.Tyberis a commonly used name for boys and essentially an alternative spelling for Tiber. The Tiber is a river named after the Greek god Tiberinus.

Therionis the most aggressive of all these names. It's Greek for a wild animal or beats, but it can also refer to the name the ancient Greeks gave to the constellation we now call Lupus. If VW builds an SUV with the full 1,700 horsepower the newScalable Systems Platformcan provide, this is the name it should use.

Teriahas several meanings. In Austria, it's a common name that means "freedom and joy." Most of us know it as a suffix, which usually indicates a self-service establishment, like a cafeteria.

Can we expect all of these names to feature on cars shortly? Some seem likely, but there's a better chance VW is scooping up all the cool-sounding words that start with a T. Once it goes fully electric, it will likely drop the ID naming strategy and revert back to regular car names. The next-generationID.4could be called a Tyber, for example.

我们认为Tarokko和太鲁阁名称有种种折磨ntial, however. VW can either use its partnership with Ford or share with another manufacturer within the VW Group. We know Scout is working on a compact electric pickup...
