With the new compact Taigo1, an SUV coupé from Volkswagen is coming onto the European market for the first time. The Taigo can be ordered immediately and will be available in four different equipment lines. In addition to its elevated seating position, the highlights of the trendy lifestyle model include a standard fully digital cockpit, clever connectivity solutions, partially automated driving and other assistance and comfort systems that increase long-distance suitability and safety. Taigo prices start at 19,350 euros
.
When ordering the new Taigo, three equipment lines are available: Even with the basic "Taigo" equipment, the SUV coupé impresses both inside and out with its extraordinary design and advanced equipment. Among other things, the Taigo has the “Front Assist” emergency braking assistant and the “Lane Assist” lane departure warning system as standard. The entry-level version of the Taigo is powered via the front axle by a 70 kW (95 PS) 1.0 TSI engine with a manual 5-speed gearbox.
The “Life” equipment line offers additional convenience - among other things through a standard parking aid or through App Connect: This feature enables selected apps and content to be operated conveniently directly via the display in the vehicle. The Taigo "Life" is also available with a 7-speed dual clutch gearbox (DSG) and an output of 81 kW (110 PS) on request.
With the "Style" equipment line, the new Taigo is particularly valuable inside and out: The extensive standard equipment offers, for example, App Connect including App Connect Wireless for Apple CarPlay ™ and Android Auto ™, IQ.Light - LED matrix headlights with LED daytime running lights and cornering lights . The Taigo "Style" is available with a 7-speed DSG with an output of 81 kW (110 PS) or in the top engine version with 110 kW (150 PS).
Volkswagen will also offer the Taigo in a sporty "R-Line" version. It has an even more dynamic design in combination with high-quality contrasting elements and larger wheels as well as a further expanded range of equipment.
