7-Seater VW Tayron R-Line India Full Specs, Performance, Features & Everything You Need to Know

Alright, let’s get straight to it Volkswagen India is raising the bar. The new Tayron R-Line 7-seater is finally coming in. Not just another SUV. This one sits right at the top. Flagship vibes.When I first walked into the showroom, I actually stopped and stared. It’s that sort of presence.

Engine and Performance

Here’s the thing 2.0-litre TSI turbo petrol. 201 bhp. 320 Nm torque. Seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. AWD standard. Sounds good, right? And it is. Driving uphill, the SUV feels confident. But, low-speed maneuvers? Yeah, a little twitchy. Nothing major, just noticeable. One rainy day, I took it on a hill road for a quick spin. The AWD helped, but I had to gradual down greater than I idea.
Still, engine punch? Solid. DSG shifts nicely once you get going.

Size and Practicality

Length 4,770 mm. Wheelbase 2,789 mm. Big car. Three rows fit comfortably, but third row adults, you might feel squeezed. Luggage? 345 litres with all seats up. Fold the third row, and it’s 850 litres. Weekend road trips? Sorted. One time, I packed a family of four plus luggage for a 3-day trip still had room for extra bags. That’s practicality talking.

Competition

In India, it goes against Skoda Kodiaq, Toyota Fortuner, MG Gloster, Jeep Meridian. Tough crowd. But Tayron R-Line has premium feel, space, tech makes a solid case. Minor glitches aside, it impresses. That’s life with new SUVs.

Bottom line not perfect. Third row tight, software sometimes quirky, DSG low-speed jitters. But for families wanting style, space, and sporty feel? Tayron R-Line delivers. My advice? Test drive it, feel it, then decide. Leaves an impression, no doubt.
