Our take on this /// Verdict

The Volkswagen Taigun Anniversary Edition is a celebration of the models successful first year in the Indian market, and it does so with a blend of cosmetic enhancements and subtle yet meaningful upgrades. From my perspective, this special edition retains the core DNA of the Volkswagen brand, offering superior build quality, enhanced safety features, and a fun-to-drive experience. The addition of the Rising Blue paint scheme, along with other vibrant colors like Curcuma Yellow and Wild Cherry Red, gives the car a distinctive look. The upgraded fog lamps, black C-pillar graphics, and black roof foil add a sportier touch without compromising the classic Volkswagen styling. While the changes are largely cosmetic, they do elevate the overall appeal of the vehicle. However, the price premium of around Rs 30,000 over the top model might be a consideration for some buyers. Overall, the Taigun Anniversary Edition is a great option for those looking for a stylish, safe, and engaging driving experience.

Price

The Volkswagen Taigun Anniversary Edition is priced at a premium over the standard top variants. Specifically, it comes with a price tag that is around Rs 30,000 higher than the top model of the existing Taigun. This places the ex-showroom price of the Anniversary Edition in the range of the top-spec Dynamic Line and Topline variants, which are already priced between Rs 11.40 lakh and Rs 18.60 lakh. On-road prices will vary depending on the state and local taxes but can be expected to be around Rs 13-22 lakh, considering the additional costs such as registration, insurance, and other fees. While the premium might seem steep for some cosmetic changes, it does offer a unique and exclusive package that sets it apart from the standard models.

This move marks the end of a special edition that was launched to celebrate the models first anniversary in India.
