The Arteon was introduced in the UK in 2017 and received a facelift in 2020, giving you a first-generation pre-facelift range (2017–2020) and a facelifted range (2020 onwards). Tailgates within the same phase should generally interchange, but whether a pre-facelift tailgate crosses over to a post-facelift car is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration, as pressing or trim-line changes around the facelift can affect fit and appearance. Always quote your reg when getting a quote.
A 2019 Arteon is pre-facelift and a 2022 car is post-facelift, so these sit either side of the 2020 facelift boundary. Body style is the same — both are five-door liftback — but whether the tailgate pressing itself is interchangeable across that facelift year is not something that can be confirmed here; run your registration past the breaker and ask them to compare part numbers before buying.
Trim level does not affect tailgate fitment on the Arteon — the panel itself is the same across Elegance, R-Line, and other grades within the same generation and facelift phase. You may find cosmetic differences such as badge placement, spoiler lip finishing, or rear wiper delete on some specs, so check the breaker's photos against your own car before committing. The structural panel will fit regardless of trim.
No — the Arteon Shooting Brake is a distinct body style with a different roofline, rear quarter profile, and tailgate shape compared with the standard five-door liftback. These two tailgates are not interchangeable, so make sure you tell the breaker which body style your car is when requesting a quote.
Generation and facelift phase are the key factors: a tailgate from a 2017–2020 pre-facelift Arteon liftback should suit another pre-facelift liftback, and likewise for post-facelift 2020-onwards cars. Engine choice and trim level make no difference to whether the panel fits. If you are in any doubt about whether the donor car matches your phase — particularly if the breaker is unsure of the exact model year — ask them to verify against your registration before you proceed.
