      The car is excellent in driving comfort, performance, road grip, and average mileage. The after-sales service is good, and my workshop experience has also been positive. Overall, I am fully satisfied with the quality and performance. Since I now want to switch to an EV, I am considering exchanging it.

      One of the best cars in its segment at this price point. It offers a great balance of safety, power, and fuel efficiency — delivering over 18 kmpl on highways and 15+ kmpl in city driving. Overall, a very good car and a smart choice for daily use.

      We purchased the Volkswagen Taigun 1.0L Turbo High-End variant in January 2023. It’s been over 2 years now, and I’ve traveled almost 50,000 km. The performance has been excellent even in ghat sections and tough terrains, the vehicle handles beautifully. In terms of maintenance, it’s quite reasonable not very expensive, especially when compared to BMWs or other high-end cars. I’m very happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend it. Everything is manufactured by Volkswagen in their own factory, and the vehicle feels very sturdy and well-built.
