With a massive hatchback boot and plenty of interior space, you could hardly accuse the VW Arteon of being impractical. But if you do want an even more Ikea-friendly take on the car, you’re in luck: VW has confirmed that it’s going to make a ‘shooting brake’ estate version.

As we can see via the render above from X-Tomi Design, it’s set to be a handsome thing. And potentially fast: Car Throttle was told last year that VW has been actively testing a new 3.0-litre, turbocharged VR6 engine with around 400bhp for the Arteon hatch, which - if approved for production - would inevitably end up in this estate version too.
