Pros	Strong diesel engine on offer Spacious and sophisticated interior design. Bold looks with great road presence. Big on boot space with more than 520 L of space. Exceptionally well in terms of ride quality. The 8-speed gearbox is quick in shifts.	The 2.0 TSI turbo petrol engine is a hoot to drive. Powerful and torquey! Tayron offers a very feature rich cabin - large screens, ADAS suite, premium audio! We love the styling with R-Line treatment and great 19-inch alloy wheels Pricing is good - only Rs 1 lakh over the smaller 5-seater Tiguan. The 19-inch wheels do not rob the car of a decent ride. Plus great high speed manners This is one of the safest cars in the segment and offers Level 2 ADAS and 9 airbags
Cons	Body roll can be felt. Riding at low speeds can be bumpy. Engine NVH levels could have been improved No petrol powertrain on offer No 4X4 or AWD option is available.	The last row is strictly for kids and short adults (under 5’4”) The TSI engine is known to deliver under 6-7 km/l in congested urban usage Only one version on offer - VW can further reduce pricing with a less loaded model No diesel or hybrid on offer - VW was once known for diesel units, not any more though Though AWD is on offer, this is not an SUV meant for off-roading
