Get Ready for the Volkswagen Tayron: The Spacious and Tech-Forward SUV Heading to India
New Delhi: The automotive world is excited as the seven-seat marvel Volkswagen Tayron is all set to make its grand entry into India by 2025. This isn’t just any SUV; It’s the stretched-out brother of the beloved Tiguan, promising more space, more tech and more vroom!
A glimpse inside, captured on camera in China, the Teron shows off an interior that is a tech lover’s dream. Imagine you’re sitting in the driver’s seat, surrounded by not one, not two, but three bright screens. The main infotainment system, a digital instrument cluster and an additional screen for the passenger – all of which are likely to be powered by VW’s state-of-the-art MIB4 digital interface.
Design and Comfort The Teron’s cabin exudes sophistication with its minimalist design, which includes attractive AC vents, a neat center console with a wireless charging pad and a rotary dial for the drive selector. It’s like a lounge on wheels, with soft-touch materials, contrast stitching with blue piping and sporty seats that exude luxury.
Built on the robust MQB EVO platform under the hood, the Teron shares its features with the latest generation Tiguan and even the new Skoda Kodiaq. The China-spec model has a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, and there is also talk of a diesel version. All engines come with a 48V mild-hybrid setup, giving you the option of 4WD or 2WD.
The move to a green Volkswagen isn’t just about power; They’re paving the way for a greener future with two plug-in hybrid options. These eco-friendly beasts will have a 1.5-litre petrol engine, an electric motor and a massive 19.7kWh battery pack, promising an electric-only range of over 100 km and fast DC fast charging.
Road Ahead The Teron is set to be a game-changer in the Indian market, competing with the likes of Jeep Meridian and Skoda Kodiaq. Assembled locally via CKD kit, this SUV is not just a ride; It’s a statement – a testament to Volkswagen’s commitment to innovation, luxury and sustainability. So, get ready, India! Teron is coming, and it’s going to be epic.
