Launch Timeline and Production Strategy

The Tayron R-Line heads to showrooms by Q1 2026, imported as CKD kits for local assembly. Volkswagen’s Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar facility, which handles models like Virtus and Taigun, will ensure high-quality build while slashing import duties. This CKD approach, unlike the CBU Tiguan R-Line, positions pricing aggressively at ₹45-50 lakh ex-showroom, making premium ownership accessible.​

Local production boosts affordability without compromising German engineering standards. For context, CKD assembly helped price the Tiguan R-Line at ₹45.73 lakh, and Tayron follows suit for broader appeal in India’s price-sensitive luxury market.​

Powertrain and Performance Edge

A punchy 2.0L TSI turbo-petrol engine delivers 204 PS power and 320 Nm torque, mated to a slick 7-speed DSG automatic. Expect 4MOTION AWD for superior grip on Indian roads, from monsoons to highways, with a top speed around 240 km/h. Similar to Tiguan R-Line’s proven setup, it offers brisk acceleration—0-100 km/h likely under 8 seconds—ideal for overtakes and family hauls.​

Fuel efficiency hovers at 12-14 kmpl real-world, balancing thrill with practicality. In a segment dominated by diesels like Fortuner, this petrol powerhouse stands out for refinement and quick shifts.​

Dimensions and Spacious 7-Seater Layout
