Our take on this /// Verdict

The Volkswagen Taigun Sound Edition is a compelling package for those who value a blend of performance, comfort, and enhanced audio experience. The new seven-speaker sound system with a subwoofer and an amplifier significantly elevates the in-car audio quality, making it one of the best in its segment. While the engine and gearbox specifications remain unchanged, the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol TSI engine still delivers a punchy performance and smooth handling, which is a hallmark of the Taigun. However, the audio setup is the real highlight here, catering to music enthusiasts who seek a refined auditory experience on the go. Overall, its a worthy consideration for anyone looking for a feature-rich compact SUV with a focus on audio quality.

Price

The Volkswagen Taigun Sound Edition is priced at an ex-showroom price of Rs. 16.33 lakh in India. When you factor in the on-road costs, including taxes, registration, and insurance, the price can go up to around Rs. 19-20 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. This pricing positions the Taigun Sound Edition competitively within the compact SUV segment, especially considering the enhanced audio features and the overall package of comfort and performance it offers. For those willing to invest in a premium audio experience, the additional cost over the standard model seems justified.

Latest Updates

Tuesday, 21 November 2023 09:41 AM Volkswagen India launched the Sound Edition of the Taigun and Virtus on November 21, featuring a specially-tuned audio system with a sub-woofer and an amplifier. This edition also includes segment-first electric front seats, puddle lamps, and footwell illumination. The cars are available in four color options and can be had with a dual-tone color scheme for the Taigun. I think this addition will significantly enhance the driving experience for audiophiles.

Tuesday, 21 November 2023 07:03 AM The Sound Edition of the Taigun and Virtus is exclusively offered on the 1.0-litre TSI Topline variants, priced at Rs 16,32,900 and Rs 15,51,900 respectively for the manual transmission, and Rs 17,89,900 and Rs 16,77,400 for the automatic transmission. The edition includes Sound branding on front A-pillar tweeters and distinctive equalizer graphics on the C-pillar. I believe these aesthetic and audio upgrades will make these cars stand out in their segment.

Monday, 20 November 2023 07:13 AM Volkswagens Sound Edition for the Taigun and Virtus does not include any mechanical changes, retaining the same engine options as the standard models – a 1-litre 3-cylinder unit and a 1.5-litre engine. The focus is on enhancing the audio and aesthetic aspects. I think this approach will appeal to those who value in-car entertainment.

The edition will also feature electric front seats, puddle lamps, and footwell illumination. I think this move will attract customers looking for a premium driving experience.

Wednesday, 08 November 2023 06:17 AM The Sound Edition of the Taigun and Virtus is part of Volkswagens year-end bonanza, the Big Rush celebrations, which include attractive offers and benefits for customers. This special edition is designed to amplify the acoustic experiences of the German-engineered cars. I believe this strategy will help boost sales during the festive season.
