Volkswagen Taigun Safety User Reviews

Driven 58000km in 20 months.Acceleration power delivery is linear, Car feels planted at three digit speeds too.The grunt of the tsi engine is absolutely addictive.I own the 1.0 mt, Have never felt the engine to be insufficient except on uphill hairpin curves when in 2nd gear at lower than 1800rpm when there is a need to shift to 1st gear.Driven on a light foot, The vehicle returns great economy.Overall i get around 14-16kmpl with a city-highway usage of 40-60%.Brakingdespite the rear having drums, Braking is quite good.Never had any heart stopping moments so far with braking.But after driving long distances of over 500km at a stretch the brake makes an uncomfortable grinding noise.Vw are yet to determine the cause.I’ve had to replace the brake pads twice so far.Once at 30000km and then again at 45000km.But the second time i think i was made to change it prematurely.Will update after the next service at 60000km.Comfortalbeit a stiffer suspension, Comfort levels are good for most part.Only on very bumpy roads or bad stretches, A more plush ride is missed.Wish vw allowed to increase sidewall width under warranty.I changed tyres at 50000km.Was not very happy with the stock goodyear assurance tripplemax.Went for the ceat securadrive in oem configuration.Dynamicsdespite being a compact suv it is a nimble navigator.You can take corners with confidence.Minimal body roll as well.I absolute love driving the taigun in the ghats.My favourite being mysore-mangalore- goa trips.Overtaking is a breeze with the nice torque band available.The manual transmission makes all of this all the more enjoyable.Eco friendlylessnot as good as an ev, But not as bad as a diesel.Mine being my22 model supports e10 blend petrol, Recommended is ron 95 but minimum of ron 91.I use 91 most of the time except when going on road trips when i use ron 95 petrol (xp95).But from my23 the cars are e20 compatible and also come with an auto stop-start system.Fuel economy as mentioned earlier i’m really happy with the economy.I am a sedate driver most part of the time.In mysore city i get around 13kmpl within city limits.Out on the highway with cruise control set at a comfortable 90kmph i get around 18kmpl with the ac set at 24degrees celsius.Verdicti’ve been a happy customer with the vw taigun so far.Have not had any major issues.But the yellowing of the drls this early was a minor let down.This car will appeal to people looking for a compact suv with good driving dynamics and fuel economy without compromising on safety (gncap 5 star for adult and child safety).But i do agree it’s not as big as the creta or seltos.

I drove this car and i found it very comfortable and dynamic and easy to control.It has a 1.5 tsi engine and most complete engine which is best under 20 lacs.It is coupled with the 7 speed dsc's lightning quick gearshifts.Taigun gt is a kind of hot hatch moreover a suv.It's handling is quite similar to other volkswagen cars, Body control is tight and is fun to drive.Volkswagen has given a touchscreen in the car and we could use android auto and apple carplay on it as well.The brakes also work vey well.Front brakes are disc brakes while the rear ones are the drum brakes.If we talk about the security and safety system then everyone knows that volkswagen have always proved their worth in it and this time also they have provided 4 airbags, It has 3 point seat belts for all, Electronic differential lock, Brake disc wiping and many more.If we talk about the exterior then it is a compact car and is dashing as well.Now if we look over some of the cons then i would say that this car miss some of the major needed features like different driving modes and sunroof and subwoofer and many more.The after sale service is also a little expensive.There is no 1.5l diesel which is a major disadvantage.Looking over the pros and cons i would say that this the best budget car under 20 lacs.

Great car in this segment! firstly, It's pickup, Performance (as expected from a german engine), Looks(obviously that infinity tail light and front grill is a cherry on top).Secondly, The build quality and safety it provides (5starncap rating) is the main highlight.Luggage space is good and it offers a mileage of around 15 and 20 in tier 2 city and on highways respectively.Talking about after sales service, At the time of purchase dealer offered us 4 year service package and it is better than many others.Talking about cons, Taigun lacks some extraordinary technology like mg or kia offers.Overall it is the best car in this segment.

Volkswagen Taigun is a compact SUV that balances style, performance, and practicality. Its efficient engines deliver commendable fuel efficiency without compromising on power. With its spacious interior and comfortable seating for five, it's perfect for families or weekend adventures. The Taigun boasts modern features like a user-friendly infotainment system and advanced safety technology, ensuring a pleasant driving experience. While its handling is agile and responsive, some may find the ride slightly firm on rough roads. Overall, the Volkswagen Taigun offers a compelling package in the competitive compact SUV market.
