- This engine is extremely refined to drive, though some vibrations are felt inside the cabin due to the 3-cylinder effect. The engine performance is brilliant and the power delivery is very smooth. It munches miles without any effort and has a fuel efficiency of approximately 12-14 km/L in city conditions.

- The driving dynamics of the VW Taigun are one of the best in the segment. It has both performance and comfort characteristics that are tuned so perfectly that you can munch miles without any fatigue.
-
The steering wheel has a great feel and feedback on offer. In city conditions, it has a little weight but it is light to maneuver in the city, but on highways, it weighs up to provide feel and feedback while doing triple-digit speeds. It has a top speed of 205 km/H and still provides confidence to push more.
-
The comfort level in the cabin is top quality. The seats offer great comfort and the cabin is wide enough to accommodate 3 passengers in the rear. Though there is a bump in the middle still the cabin has great shoulder room. The rear seats offer ample knee room, and legroom and are a comfortable place to be in.
-
The suspension of the VW Taigun is tuned on the stiffer side, giving it a stiff ride quality. The bad roads and potholes do filter inside the cabin. But, on bends and curves, it maintains its line well. There’s hardly any body roll or up-down movement inside.
Volkswagen Taigun Competitors
- vs
VolkswagenTaigun₹ 11.70 - ₹ 19.74 LakhRead MoreHyundai Creta is the segment king and has always been on top of the sales chart.
