Volkswagen Taigun

The Volkswagen Taigun is a five-seat compact SUV for families who want strong safety and turbo petrol power in a car that is easy to park.

It seats five, and its boot holds 385 litres, growing to 1,405 litres with the rear seats folded. At 4,221 mm long with a 5.05 m turning radius, it turns and parks easily on narrow streets. The Highline, GT Line, Topline, and GT Plus Sport have six airbags, electronic stability control, a reversing camera, and a 5-star Global NCAP rating.

Every Taigun has a turbo petrol engine; a turbocharger forces extra air into the engine for strong pull at low revs. The 999 cc 1.0 TSI makes 115 PS and 178 Nm from 1,850 rpm. The Comfortline trims pair it with a manual, and the Highline, GT Line, and Topline with an 8-speed automatic rated at 19.54 km/l. The GT Plus Sport's 1,498 cc 1.5 TSI Evo makes 150 PS and 250 Nm through a 7-speed DSG, a dual-clutch automatic, and has rear disc brakes.

The Topline and GT Plus Sport have ventilated electric front seats, a panoramic sunroof, and a 10.25-inch digital cockpit. Pooja International Nepal has not yet published the equipment of the Comfortline TSI and Comfortline Plus TSI.

Volkswagen Taigun Pros & Cons

Pros

  • The Highline, GT Line, Topline, and GT Plus Sport all have six airbags, so you are well protected in a crash.
  • The 1.0 TSI pulls 178 Nm from 1,850 rpm, so loaded climbs on hill roads feel relaxed.
  • The Highline, GT Line, and Topline use an 8-speed automatic, which suits stop-start traffic and slow hill crawling.
  • A 5.05 m turning radius makes U-turns and tight parking easy in crowded city lanes.
  • The Highline, GT Line, Topline, and GT Plus Sport have hill start assist, so the car holds still on steep starts.

Cons

  • The 1.0 TSI automatics have rear drum brakes, which heat up sooner than discs on long hill descents.
  • The tyre pressure warning is indirect, so it flags a drop but shows no live pressure for each tyre.
  • The Highline has no rain-sensing wipers, so you work the wipers by hand in monsoon showers.
  • The Highline and GT Line have no ventilated seats, which you miss on hot Terai drives.
