The Volkswagen Taigun 2025 brings with it the same bold SUV stance and clean German design that has helped it carve a unique identity in India’s compact SUV segment. The front fascia is defined by a wide grille with generous chrome detailing, sleek LED headlamps with integrated DRLs, and a sporty lower bumper with faux skid plates that enhance its tough appeal.
Bold German Styling with Chrome Highlights and SUV Stance
The sides are sharp and minimal, with flared wheel arches, strong character lines, and R17 dual-tone alloys that offer both ruggedness and elegance. The rear features a striking LED tail-light bar that runs the full width of the boot—giving the Taigun a premium and futuristic signature look, especially at night. With roof rails, silver accents, and a 188mm ground clearance, the Taigun looks every bit the muscular yet sophisticated German SUV designed for Indian roads.
Two Turbocharged Petrol Engines with DSG and Manual Options
Powering the Volkswagen Taigun 2025 are two TSI turbocharged petrol engines a 1.0L TSI delivering 115PS and 178Nm torque, and a more powerful 1.5L TSI EVO with 150PS and 250Nm. The smaller engine is mated to either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic, while the 1.5L comes with a 6-speed manual or a lightning-fast 7-speed DSG automatic. The 1.5L also includes cylinder deactivation tech that shuts down two cylinders at cruising speeds to save fuel, giving an ARAI-certified mileage of 18.61 km/l, while the 1.0L version offers up to 19.87 km/l, making it fuel-efficient and peppy. The Taigun delivers a fun-to-drive experience with responsive steering, a solid suspension setup, and confident handling even at high speeds. Whether in city traffic or out on the highway, this SUV feels stable, refined, and engineered for performance enthusiasts.
Smart Cabin with Premium Features and Connectivity
Inside, the Volkswagen Taigun 2025 impresses with a dual-tone cabin layout, leatherette upholstery, and premium materials all around. The dashboard hosts a 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, complemented by an 8-inch digital cockpit instrument cluster in top variants. The climate control panel is now touch-based and feels modern and intuitive. The front seats are ventilated, the steering is flat-bottomed with mounted controls, and there’s wireless phone charging, ambient lighting, auto-dimming IRVM, and rear AC vents. The boot space of 385L and the spacious rear seat with adjustable headrests and a foldable armrest make it family-friendly. Despite its compact footprint, the cabin feels open and thoughtfully designed, offering ample legroom and smart storage across doors, central console, and under the armrest.
5-Star GNCAP Safety and Strong German Engineering

Safety features include 6 airbags in higher variants, electronic stability control, ABS with EBD, traction control, rear parking camera with dynamic guidelines, ISOFIX child seat mounts, tyre pressure monitoring system, and hill hold control.
