Pros & Cons

Taigun Pros & Cons	Elevate Pros & Cons	Kushaq Pros & Cons
Pros	Great driving experience with German-styled dynamics and handling. Has top-class safety standards with 6 airbags and 5-star GLOBAL NCAP ratings. Comes with strong build quality and brilliant driving dynamics It has almost every feature in the segment. These include ventilated seats, wireless charging, and connectivity. Both engines are powerful and have decent fuel economy. The 1.5L TSI EVO motor gets cylinder de-activation technology for enhanced fuel efficiency. The boot space is decent in numbers but has great space and practicality.	Comes equipped with the popular VTEC engine. Provides utmost comfort in the cabin. It has LEVEL 2 ADAS for added safety. It is one of the biggest in dimensions compared to its rivals. Boot space is the best in the segment with 458L on offer. The CVT gearbox is smooth with shifts.	Simple yet stylish exterior design with signature Skoda design language Powerful 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine with 148 bhp of power and an option of smooth DSG transmission The 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine is sporty with an engaging 6-speed MT & a smooth AT gearbox The interior is simple and practical with good storage space The cabin offers good ergonomics, comfortable seats, ample legroom The feature offering is good which includes an electric sunroof, electrically adjustable front seats, and a big touchscreen infotainment, among others A good number of safety features such as 6-airbags, ESC, brake disc wiping, and others It boasts a 5-star GNCAP crash test safety rating
Cons	The cabin space could have been improved and seating 3 passengers in the rear can be a tight fit. The plastic quality could have been improved on some panels. The suspension setup is on the stiffer side which filters in potholes and bumps at slow speeds. There is no diesel or hybrid option on offer. It misses on Highline TPMS.	It misses on the Hybrid/diesel engine which the competition offers Lacks some premium features like ventilated seats, and a 360-degree camera.	The interior width is not that good fitting 3 adults in the rear seat might be difficult It misses on some features as compared to its rivals such as a panoramic sunroof, 360-degree camera, ADAS, USB charging ports No diesel engine is available in the lineup The DSG gearbox has reliability issues and it has faced breakdowns previously The top-spec variants cost over Rs 20 lakh on-road which is quite expensive considering the feature offering Turbo petrol engines are not much fuel-efficient Skoda’s after-sales service is not that great as compared to rivals like Hyundai, KIA and Maruti Suzuki The boot space is quite less as compared to other cars in the segment

  One of the best cars in its segment at this price point. It offers a great balance of safety, power, and fuel efficiency — delivering over 18 kmpl on highways and 15+ kmpl in city driving. Overall, a very good car and a smart choice for daily use.

  We purchased the Volkswagen Taigun 1.0L Turbo High-End variant in January 2023. It’s been over 2 years now, and I’ve traveled almost 50,000 km. The performance has been excellent even in ghat sections and tough terrains, the vehicle handles beautifully. In terms of maintenance, it’s quite reasonable not very expensive, especially when compared to BMWs or other high-end cars. I’m very happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend it. Everything is manufactured by Volkswagen in their own factory, and the vehicle feels very sturdy and well-built.
