Upcoming Volkswagen Tayron teased for the first time

German auto major Volkswagen has commenced its teaser campaign for the upcoming Tayron. The first teaser shows a VW SUV cloaked in a white veil, with just a few exterior details visible. However, the body’s silhouette and design of the LED lights all but confirm this to be the Tayron. We are expecting the brand to release several teasers via its official social media handles from now to the actual launch of the Tayron in India.

  1. The Tayron shares its platform and powertrain with the Tiguan R-Line
  2. It is expected to come with a 204hp, 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine 
  3. VW will bring the Tayron to India as CKD units and then assemble it in Aurangabad

The Tayron could undergo a few cosmetic tweaks for India.

The front fascia of the Volkswagen Tayron, as shown in the teaser, shows the SUV with its front lights (partly) turned on. There is a full-width LED strip that merges into the headlights, while the VW logo is also illuminated. The rear of the Tayron features a svelte design for the connected taillights, comprising a thin LED strip and the main units, plus a backlit VW logo just like the one seen up front on the grille.

While there could be some India-specific cosmetic tweaks, the Volkswagen Tayron’s overall design and silhouette will be similar to the global-spec model. It remains to be seen if the above-mentioned illuminated brand logo makes it to India or not. While the global-spec Tayron gets 17-inch alloy wheels as standard, the India-spec model is likely to be equipped with 19-inch rims as seen in the Tiguan R-Line. In fact, there is plenty of design commonality between the Tayron and Tiguan R-Line, which will make the former look more intimidating owing to its larger footprint.

Volkswagen Tayron powertrain

The three-row SUV should offer strong performance.

At the heart of the VW Tayron is expected to be a 2.0-litre TSI petrol engine straight from the Tiguan R-Line, and capable of delivering 204hp and 320Nm of torque. This four-cylinder direct-injection motor will be mated to a 7-speed DSG (dual-clutch) automatic gearbox, and could also be offered with the brand’s 4MOTION all-wheel-drive system.

Volkswagen Tayron expected price and launch

The Tayron will be assembled at VW’s Aurangabad facility.

Among the upcoming VW launches this year, the Tayron’s is set for the first half of 2026, with a price tag estimated at between Rs 45.00 lakh and Rs 50.00 lakh. Unlike the Tiguan R-Line, the Tayron will come to India via the CKD route and then be assembled locally at Volkswagen’s facility in Aurangabad, Maharashtra.

Tata Motors had a blockbuster showing at Auto Expo 2023, with several models on display in various states of production readiness. However, while Tata’s announcement was quite scant on details, we’ve received a bit more information from company sources, specifically around when these cars will be launched. The products are an even mix of EV and ICE products, but while the latter includes petrol and CNG models, there has been no word on further diesel development, which means the present 1.5-litre engine in the Nexon , and the Fiat-sourced 2.0 in the Harrier and Safari , will soldier on for some time. New Tata Sierra launch in 2025 with new 1.5 petrol engine Undoubtedly the biggest star at the Tata Motors stall, the second iteration of the Sierra EV concept has inched ever closer to production-ready guise. Now with four doors and an interior with conventional controls and switchgear, it’s clear this model is in its final stages of development. However, while the concept is an EV b...

Honda  has officially delisted the Amaze  diesel model from its website. The compact sedan was the final diesel model in its segment that currently comprises of the Hyundai Aura , Tata Tigor and the Maruti Suzuki Dzire . Amaze diesel was available in three trims Was the only diesel automatic model in its segment Honda Amaze diesel: reason for discontinuation As we've reported before, the upcoming implementation of the Real Driving Emissions (RDE) norms in India from April 2023 is the key reason for the Amaze's diesel engine being dropped.  Upgrading diesel engines to meet the new stringent emissions regulations is expensive. This, combined with the low demand for diesel in this segment, meant that there was little business case for the Amaze diesel. Currently, Honda has only two diesel-powered models on sale in India – the  WR-V  and  5th gen City .  However, these cars, too, are slated to be axed as the brand  will cease producing diese...
