, not only give us our first look at the rakish Arteon load hauler but also reveal that Volkswagen is planning to launch an all-wheel drive Alltrack version.Note the Arteon Shooting Brake's slightly raised ride height, black protective plastic cladding around its arches and sills.
The images also show how VW plans to differentiate the frontal styling of the sedan and wagon, with the latter getting different treatment around its front splitter.
At the rear of the Arteon Shooting brake, the wagon shares the sedan's tail lamps but gets a different rear bumper and exhaust tips.
According to the Chinese blog, the wagon shares a similar footprint to the sedan and doesn't differ in width, or height and has an identical wheelbase.
The only difference is the wagon is longer at 4869mm - but only by 4mm.
New options for the Shooting Brake is a full-length panoramic roof, plus redesigned 18- and 19-inch alloy wheels.
Under the bonnet, for the Chinese market there's just one engine – a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder that produces either 139kW or 164kW.
Stay tuned for the official reveal on June 24 for more relevant information for the Australian market.
