Volkswagen Taigun User's Review 4.7
"I bought the 1.0L automatic and it’s been smooth and reliable. Good fuel efficiency in the city, compact size makes it easy to park, and I love the sunroof. Boot space could have been better though."
"The Taigun stands out in terms of design. The dual-tone roof and alloys turn heads. It drives better than my previous SUV and feels solid at high speeds. DSG feels a little jerky at times in traffic."
"The 1.5L GT is a beast! I love how quick it feels on highways. The cabin is very premium, and the infotainment system is super slick. A bit tight for three at the back, but perfect for my daily drives."
"Owning a Taigun feels special because of the German-engineering that isn’t just a hype but a reality that hits you as the cars glides smoothly and cleanly on the highway. The DSG shifting generates the kind of confidence you need while cruising on the highway. The cabin feels clean and minimalistic and the seats provide the necessary cushioning and under-thigh support required for long trips. Touchscreen and safety features of the Taigun car make your journeys more convenient and cheerful. It’s quite a premium SUV if we compare it with the average SUVs in India. Its build and structure feels solid and is a fun-to-drive car. "
"The car feels extremely stable at high speeds. The cornering control and handling of VW Taigun are on point. The 1.5-litre TSI engine does its job perfectly and performs like a beast on the highways. The DSG gearbox provides the necessary convenience while driving in the city. Overall, it is an excellent car for a driving enthusiast like me. "
"Last week I got to drive the Taigun bought recently by my friend. I have to say that it was one of the best driving experiences I’ve had with an Indian SUV so far. Its driving dynamics are superior and you can feel the difference clearly while cruising above 60 kmph. I also liked its infotainment system that looks uncluttered yet impressive. "
"The Taigun car is known for its stylish yet understated appearance. Though there are no fancy elements outside, the interior is fun with the red ambient lighting and dual tone interiors. You will never feel like leaving this car once you start driving it. I wish it had the 360-degree camera and ADAS suite though."
