Volkswagen Tera SUV Updates

Wednesday, 13 November 2024 08:25 PM Volkswagens upcoming Tera SUV has been spotted undergoing rigorous testing on Argentina’s unpaved roads, showcasing its rugged design and capability to handle tough terrain. The SUV features full LED headlights, a large black bumper insert, and off-road-inspired bumpers. It is expected to launch in 2025, first in Brazil and then in other markets including India. I think this testing is crucial to ensure the Tera can compete in various global markets.

Monday, 11 November 2024 07:13 AM Volkswagen has officially revealed that its new sub-4m SUV will be named Tera, which will be launched in Brazil first and later in India. The Tera will share its platform, features, and engine with the Skoda Kylaq, including a 1.0-litre TSI petrol engine producing 115 hp and 178 Nm of torque. This move is part of Volkswagens India 2.5 project to maximize plant utilization. I believe this strategy will help Volkswagen regain its foothold in the Indian market.

Monday, 11 November 2024 07:45 AM The Volkswagen Tera SUV is expected to be priced competitively in India, likely starting around Rs 8 lakh, to compete with other sub-4m SUVs like the Maruti Suzuki Brezza, Hyundai Venue, and Skoda Kylaq. The Tera will feature premium amenities such as a large touchscreen infotainment system, connected car tech, and six airbags as standard. This pricing strategy could make the Tera a strong contender in the Indian market.

Wednesday, 06 November 2024 07:59 AM Volkswagens Tera SUV will have a distinct design compared to other VW models, with features like LED headlamps, a 2D VW logo, and a rugged look including angular creases and SUV-standard plastic inserts on the fenders. The SUV will also come equipped with modern features such as a 360-degree camera, sunroof, and leatherette upholstery. This unique design could appeal to buyers looking for something different.

Friday, 25 October 2024 05:49 PM The Volkswagen Tera will be based on the MQB A0 platform, the same as the Skoda Kylaq, and will be approximately 4 meters long with a wheelbase of 2,566 mm. This platform sharing is expected to help Volkswagen achieve higher volumes and reduce production costs. I think this platform sharing is a smart move to optimize resources.

Sunday, 20 October 2024 06:05 AM Volkswagen India has not had a sub-Rs 10 lakh offering since the Polo was discontinued in 2022, but the upcoming Tera SUV is set to change that. The Tera will make the brand more accessible to a broader range of buyers, filling a significant gap in Volkswagens Indian lineup. This could be a game-changer for Volkswagens sales in India.

Tuesday, 15 October 2024 06:39 PM The Volkswagen Tera SUV will be powered by a 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder TSI petrol engine, producing 115 hp and 178 Nm of peak torque, with options for manual or automatic transmission. There are also speculations about a potential hybrid version, although this has not been confirmed. This engine choice aligns with the need for efficient and powerful performance in the compact SUV segment.

Tuesday, 01 October 2024 01:27 AM Volkswagens decision to launch the Tera SUV is part of its broader strategy to revive its presence in the global market, especially in segments where ICE vehicles are still dominant. Despite the push for electrification, Volkswagen is focusing on volume-oriented products like the Tera to drive sales. I think this balanced approach is wise given the current market dynamics.

Friday, 20 September 2024 09:07 AM The Tera SUV will feature several modern amenities, including a large touchscreen with a digital driver display, climate control, and a high-end music system. Safety features will include six airbags across all variants, making it a competitive offering in the safety-conscious Indian market. These features will likely appeal to buyers seeking both comfort and safety.

Sunday, 25 August 2024 03:21 PM Volkswagen has initiated a ‘India 2.5’ project worth Rs 2,276 crore, and the introduction of the Tera sub 4-metre SUV is a key part of this initiative. This project aims to maximize plant utilization and increase Volkswagens market share in India. I believe this project will be crucial for Volkswagens growth in the Indian market.
