Overview

  • Customers can reserve the SUV nationwide for a refundable ₹51,000 through dealerships or Volkswagen’s online channels.
  • The launch will feature a single R-Line trim with a 2.0-litre TSI (about 204 bhp), 7-speed DSG and all-wheel drive, with a claimed 0–100 km/h in 7.3 seconds and 224 km/h top speed.
  • Key equipment includes HD Matrix LED lighting, a 15-inch touchscreen, 10.25-inch digital cluster, AR head-up display, panoramic sunroof, ventilated massaging front seats and an 11-speaker Harman Kardon system.
  • Safety tech spans nine airbags, Level 2 ADAS with 14 functions and a 360° camera, and the Tayron has a 5-star Euro NCAP crash-test rating.
  • Early reviews highlight strong build quality and driving dynamics but say the third row suits children best; pricing and the exact launch date are yet to be announced, with reports indicating late February or March, and seven exterior colours are planned at launch.
