<p>Volkswagen India is all set to make its comeback in the three-row SUV segment with the Tayron R-Line. The car has already made its global debut, and now the India-spec version has been officially revealed. Volkswagen has also shared key details about it. So, without further ado, here's all you need to know about the upcoming Tayron R-Line.&nbsp;</p><h2>Volkswagen Tayron R-Line: Engine</h2><p>The Tayron R-Line comes equipped with the same 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine found in the Tiguan R-Line, which makes 201.2bhp and 320Nm. Thanks to a 7-speed DCT and all-wheel drive,&nbsp; the car can hit 100km/h from a standstill in 7.3 seconds, and reach a top speed of 224km/h.&nbsp;The SUV is equipped with adaptive dampers.</p><h2>Volkswagen Tayron R-Line: Exterior and Dimensions</h2><p>From the front, the Tayron R-Line resembles the sportier Tiguan, though a few changes can be seen in the form of the grille. The SUV gets an illuminated logo, a connected LED light bar,&nbsp;19-inch dual-tone alloys, and pixel-style connected LED taillamps.</p><p>Dimensionally,&nbsp;the Volkswagen Tayron R-Line is larger than its sportier sibling, the Tiguan R-Line. The SUV measures 4,792mm in length, 1,866mm in width, and 1,665mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 2,789mm.&nbsp;This makes it 253mm longer, 7mm wider, 9mm taller, and gives a 109mm longer wheelbase than the Tiguan, which measures&nbsp;4,539mm in length, 1,859mm in width, and 1,656mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,680mm.</p><p>In terms of boot space, the Tayron SUV offers 345 litres with all seats up, which expands to 850 litres when the third row is folded.</p><h2>Volkswagen Tayron R-Line: Interior and Features</h2><p>Inside, the Tayron R-Line offers a minimalist design and an array of modern features, including&nbsp;a 15-inch infotainment and 10.25-inch digital driver display.&nbsp;The seats at the front are electrically adjustable and have massage,&nbsp;ventilation, and heating capabilities.&nbsp;Meanwhile, the second row seats can slide and recline.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/volkswagen-tayron-scores-5-star-safety-rating-in-euro-ncap-crash-tests-watch-video-120784/">Volkswagen Tayron Scores 5-Star Safety Rating in Euro NCAP Crash Tests: Watch Video</a></p><p>Other Highlights include a Harman Kardon system,&nbsp;dual wireless chargers, and a head-up display. For safety, the SUV includes&nbsp;9 airbags, a 360-degree camera, and ADAS.</p>

India-Spec Volkswagen Tayron R-Line Breaks Cover

While the price announcement is yet to be made, the new Volkswagen Tayron R-Line is expected to be priced starting at Rs 45 lakh (ex-showroom). 

<p>India may soon see more Euro-built cars on its roads as the Indo-EU trade deal moves closer. A major cut in import duty could change what European brands bring to India. That single change could make a big difference to what reaches Indian roads. Several global models stay away only because pricing does not work under the current tax structure. If the new duty system comes into effect, buyers may finally see more Europe-made cars rather than region-modified versions built for cost control.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/industry-news/lamborghini-global-sales-hit-record-10747-units-in-2025-111-cars-sold-in-india-122736/">Lamborghini Global Sales Hit Record 10,747 Units in 2025; 111 Cars Sold in India</a></p><p>The revised import duty is expected to apply to fully built units coming from European Union countries. These will mainly include premium and mid-size cars priced above a fixed threshold. This route gives manufacturers flexibility to bring in models without committing to local assembly at the start.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/02/1740142978797-u9pp-BMW-iX-BMW-X7-Motion.webp" alt="BMW iX-BMW X7-Motion.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Brands such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi and Volkswagen stand to gain from the change. At present, these companies sell a limited number of imports due to high taxation. Lower duties could allow them to expand their line-ups and introduce global models already sold in other markets.</p><p>

European motorcycle brands like Ducati, BMW Motorrad, KTM and Triumph could benefit if similar import rules extend to bikes. This could improve access to higher-capacity motorcycles that currently arrive in restricted numbers.</p><p>The Indo-EU trade deal has been under discussion for several years and covers multiple sectors beyond automobiles. Electric vehicles may stay outside the first phase to protect local manufacturing. Even so, if approved, the agreement could reshape the premium segment and make Euro-built cars and bikes a more common sight on Indian roads.</p>

More Euro-built European Cars in India? New Indo-EU Trade Deal to Slash Import Duty on Cars

Indo-EU trade deal may cut import duty on European cars and bikes by 40 per cent, opening the door for more BMW, Ducati, Mercedes and Volkswagen models in India.

<p>Volkswagen India has taken the next step towards its upcoming SUV launch by starting local assembly of the Tayron R-Line at its Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar plant. The three-row<a href="https://www.autox.com/suv-cars-in-india/"> SUV</a> is being assembled through the completely knocked down route ahead of its expected India debut in early 2026. With the demand for premium SUVs rising steadily, this move puts Volkswagen in a strong position going forward. The Tayron R-Line will sit above the<a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volkswagen/tiguan-r-line/"> Tiguan R-Line</a> and is set to become the brand’s largest and most premium SUV for the Indian market. Local assembly should also help keep pricing in check, something buyers closely watch in this segment.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/volkswagen-polo-electric-interior-revealed-with-physical-buttons-122580/">Volkswagen Polo Electric Interior Revealed With Physical Buttons</a></p><p>Built on the MQB Evo platform, the Tayron made its global debut in 2024. The platform is already familiar across several <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volkswagen/">Volkswagen</a> Group models worldwide, known for balancing performance, comfort, and safety. The fact that the local assembly has started within a year of its global reveal shows a faster approach compared to earlier launches.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/01/Volkswagen-Tayron-R-Line-1768537663906.webp" alt="Volkswagen Tayron R-Line.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Power is expected to come from a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine producing around 190bhp and 320Nm of torque. This engine is likely to be paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. Volkswagen is also expected to offer its 4MOTION all-wheel-drive system, which should suit long highway drives and changing road conditions.</p><p>

Final details, variants, and pricing will be announced closer to launch as Volkswagen prepares its next big SUV for India.</p>

<p>Which is quicker around the Buddh International Circuit - the Volkswagen Golf GTI or the Skoda Octavia RS?</p><p>On paper, these two are closely related. Both use the same 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, producing 261 bhp and 370 Nm, paired with a 7-speed DSG that drives the front wheels. But on track, numbers alone don’t tell the full story.</p><p>In this track-focused comparison, Dhruv Behl puts both cars through a full flying lap at the BIC to find out which one is sharper, more engaging, and ultimately faster. From chassis balance and front-end bite to braking confidence and adjustability at the limit, this is a proper driver-centric showdown between two performance icons from the Volkswagen Group.</p>

<h2><strong>Volkswagen Tayron: Exterior</strong></h2>
<p>The Tayron SUV has already been unveiled internationally and serves as <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volkswagen/">Volkswagen’s</a> three-row counterpart to the Tiguan.

<p>The SUV sits on alloy wheels ranging from 17&nbsp;to 19 inches, housed within squared wheel arches. In terms of size, it stretches&nbsp;4,770mm long, which is 231mm more than the Europe-spec Tiguan. The SUV also boasts a wheelbase&nbsp;extended by approximately 110mm to 2,791mm, allowing space for the third row and a longer rear overhang.</p>

<p>The Volkswagen Tayron packs an extensive list of features.

<p>Premium variants add to the driving experience with powered seats offering massage and ventilation, leather upholstery, a panoramic sunroof, and a Harman Kardon&nbsp;sound setup.

These include a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol&nbsp;mild-hybrid, 2.0-litre turbo petrol, 2.0-litre turbo diesel, and two plug-in hybrids (2.0-litre turbo-petrol&nbsp;with an electric motor). Every version is paired with a dual-clutch&nbsp;automatic transmission and offered with either front-wheel drive or Volkswagen’s four-wheel-drive system.&nbsp;The plug-in hybrid versions claim an electric-only range of more than&nbsp;100 kilometres and support both AC and DC fast charging.</p>

Volkswagen Tayron Teased Ahead Of India Launch

Globally, the Volkswagen Tayron comes equipped with a 10.25-inch digital instrument panel and a 12.9-inch central infotainment screen, featuring wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

<p>Volkswagen has revealed the interior of the upcoming 2026 ID. Polo electric hatchback, and the big talking point is the return of physical buttons. For anyone who enjoys riding or driving with focus, this feels like a move in the right direction. The German car maker has brought back proper tactile controls for climate, volume, and hazard lights, replacing the touch sliders seen in earlier ID cars. Production for Europe is planned for late 2026. It feels like replacing imprecise touch controls with a proper toggle that works exactly when you need it.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/volkswagen-celebrates-50-years-of-gti-with-edition-50-golf-and-electric-polo-gti-122555/">Volkswagen Celebrates 50 Years of GTI With Edition 50 Golf and Electric Polo GTI</a></p><p>The ID.

Polo: Interior</strong></h2><p>The ID. Polo interior uses a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster behind the steering wheel and a 13-inch infotainment touchscreen at the centre of the dashboard.

<p>Volkswagen is set to celebrate 50 years of the Golf GTI in 2026, and for car enthusiasts, this milestone hits close to home. The GTI story began in 1976 in Germany as a limited run of just 5,000 units, but the response rewrote the plan almost instantly. More than 50,000 units sold in the first year alone, proving there was strong demand for a car that mixed performance with daily usability. </p><p>Production of the first-generation model later reached 461,690 units worldwide. With 109bhp, a top speed of 182km/h and a 0–100km/h time of 9.0 seconds, the early Golf GTI showed how accessible performance could fit into everyday driving without compromise.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/exclusive-stories/volkswagen-tiguan-r-line-special-feature-reign-of-refinement-122440/">Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line Special Feature - Reign of Refinement</a></p><p>The original <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/volkswagen/golf-gti/">Volkswagen Golf GTI</a> also made sense from an ownership point of view.

Power rises to 320bhp, making it the most powerful production Golf GTI to date. Orders are open in select European markets, with deliveries planned for 2026. The car retains front-wheel drive and a driver-focused layout, staying aligned with the GTI formula developed over five decades. Golf GTI sales have now crossed 2.5 million units globally since 1976.</p><p>
