The SUV has already been listed on the German carmaker's official India website for collecting online inquiries. For the unread ones, the Volkswagen Taigun has been specifically designed for the Indian market and will be based on the company's MQB A0 IN platform. The latest upcoming Volkswagen Taigun is closely related to the T-Cross sold in the European market but will be longer, more spacious, and will meet the needs of the Indian customers. It gets you elements like LED lighting, a single-bar LED brake lamp at the rear, faux diffusers on the bumper, and a very upright and boxy profile. The front section is upright making for an imposing face, while the boxy proportions give it a nice stance. Also, if compared to the T-Cross it is expected to about 100 mm longer as in terms of design, it looks butch yet very urban, taking inspiration from the T-Cross and even Tiguan.
The feature list will impress you surely as it includes an all-digital instrument console, large touchscreen infotainment system, fast-charging USB slots, and app-based connected features too among others. The rear seat is roomy thanks to the stretched wheelbase, and there are ample headroom and knee-room too, courtesy of the wide body. Also, there are rear AC vents for added convenience. Taigun will be powered up with a 1.0-liter three-cylinder turbocharged TSI petrol engine that will churn out 113 bhp and 200 Nm of peak torque. Transmission options will include the 6-speed manual and possibly the 7-speed DSG automatic. It's said that this will keep the pricing competitive.
