A likely 8-speed automatic for the 1.0 TSI stands out in this feature-focused refresh.

Overview

  • Volkswagen will unveil the updated Taigun in India on April 9, its first major refresh since the SUV launched in 2021.
  • Spy photos point to slimmer LED headlamps joined by a light bar, an illuminated VW badge and reworked bumpers with new alloy wheels.
  • Inside, reports indicate a larger touchscreen, a bigger digital driver display, a panoramic sunroof and a revised air-conditioning compressor for better cooling.
  • The 1.0-litre turbo-petrol may trade its 6-speed automatic for a new 8-speed torque-converter, while both the 1.0 and 1.5 TSI engines carry over.
  • Safety features and the Taigun’s 5-star Global NCAP rating are expected to continue, with prices projected to rise slightly once Volkswagen reveals full details at the launch.
