The Volkswagen Taigun specifications sit on the MQB A0 IN platform shared with the Virtus. It measures 4221 mm long with a 2651 mm wheelbase, generous for a compact SUV. The roof height reaches 1612 mm, aiding cabin space. The 188 mm ground clearance and 1760 mm width give it a planted look.
The sheet lists two petrol units. The 1.0 TSI produces 115 PS and 178 Nm from 999 cc. The 1.5 TSI raises output to 150 PS and 250 Nm from 1498 cc, with cylinder deactivation for economy. Transmissions cover a six speed manual, an eight speed automatic and a seven speed DSG.
On fuel the 1.0 TSI manual leads at 19.98 kmpl. Its eight speed automatic follows close behind at 19.54 kmpl. The larger 1.5 TSI DSG returns 18.85 kmpl. City traffic and air conditioning trim these ARAI ratings. You can read the Taigun mileage by variant to compare the engines fairly.
Boot space stands at 385 litres, enough for a weekend family load. The 50 litre tank gives a long cruising range on the highway. Rear seat knee room is good for two adults. Seating is for five, and the tall body frees up headroom. Preview the Taigun colours before you settle on a look.
Safety is a Taigun strength, with six airbags, ESC and a strong shell. Higher trims add cameras and parking sensors for tight spots. It carries a five star crash rating from independent testing. Read as a whole, the sheet shows a compact SUV built for comfort and safety over gimmicks.
