Volkswagen is preparing to launch its new flagship three-row SUV, the Volkswagen Tayron, in India tomorrow. The SUV will be offered in a fully loaded variant and is expected to strengthen the brand’s presence in the premium SUV segment. Bookings for the Tayron had already started earlier this month, and the model is expected to attract buyers looking for a spacious and feature-rich family SUV.
The Tayron R-Line brings a fresh and modern design that follows Volkswagen’s latest styling approach. The SUV features 18-inch alloy wheels and is available in eight different exterior colour options. Inside, the cabin gets a dual-tone black and beige theme along with three rows of seating. The second and third-row seats can be folded down, offering flexible luggage space, which is ideal for long road trips and family travel.
In terms of features, the Tayron comes equipped with several premium elements. It includes three-zone climate control, dual digital displays, connected car technology, and a powered tailgate. The SUV also gets powered front seats with ventilation and massage functions, along with Level 2 ADAS safety features and a full LED lighting package, making it competitive in its segment.
Under the hood, the Tayron is powered by a 2.0-litre TSI petrol engine that produces 201bhp and 320Nm of torque. The engine is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and Volkswagen’s 4Motion all-wheel-drive system, which enhances driving stability and performance across different terrains.
The Volkswagen Tayron is expected to be priced between Rs. 48 lakh and Rs. 55 lakh (ex-showroom). In the Indian market, it will compete with premium SUVs like the Skoda Kodiaq, MG Gloster, MG Majestor, and the Toyota Fortuner.
Following the Tayron’s launch, Volkswagen is also planning to introduce updates for the Volkswagen Taigun and Volkswagen Virtus as part of its upcoming product strategy in India.
