As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the GMC Terrain and the Volkswagen Taos.
Convenience

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The GMC Terrain is somewhat more expensive than the Volkswagen Taos.
Dimensions
The GMC Terrain is about the same width as the Volkswagen Taos.
For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the GMC Terrain, which is slightly longer than the Volkswagen Taos.
Handling
The GMC Terrain has a larger turning radius than the Volkswagen Taos, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.
Performance
The GMC Terrain has a little more horsepower than the Volkswagen Taos.
Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the GMC Terrain does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Volkswagen Taos.
Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the GMC Terrain and the Volkswagen Taos.
The GMC Terrain has less cargo space than the Volkswagen Taos, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
