Volkswagen prices Tayron SUV for Australia

REPLACING the Tiguan Allspace in Volkswagen’s SUV line-up is the all-new Tayron – available in five- or seven-seat configuration and priced from $48,290 plus on-road costs.

The range begins with the 110TSI Life and steps up through 150TSI Elegance and sporty 195TSI R-Line grades, with each variant offering its own unique styling details, equipment levels, and in the case of the R-Line, Golf GTI-sourced performance.

For the entry grade Tayron 110TSI Life we find standard inclusions such as 18-inch Bologna alloy wheels, keyless entry with alarm, a powered tailgate, 360-degree camera system, digital instrumentation, a 12.9-inch infotainment array, in-built sat nav, DAB+ digital radio reception, wireless App-Connect, and wireless charging.

The variant also incorporates a comprehensive list of standard safety features including adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, front- and rear-cross traffic alert, lane assist, nine airbags, side exit warning, traffic sign recognition, and more.

The ‘Life’ variant is offered in five- and seven-seat configuration, the latter offering 4Motion all-wheel drive as standard, ensuring “greater stability, agility and precision”, says Volkswagen.

In the mid-tier of the range is the Tayron 150TSI Elegance (from $59,490 + ORC) which adds 19-inch Catania alloy wheels, chromed roof rails and exterior garnishing, LED Plus headlighting, leather-appointed upholstery, a heated steering wheel, powered front seat adjustment, and heated, ventilated, and massaging front seats.

The model is available optionally with Volkswagen’s Sound & Vision package ($4200) adding head-up display, harman/kardon premium audio, larger 15.0-inch Discover Pro Max display, HD Matrix LED headlighting, Dynamic Light Assist, and rear dynamic indicators.

A panoramic sunroof ($2100) is likewise available as an option.

Finally, and with a sticker price of $73,490 + ORC is the Tayron 195TSI R-Line offering what Volkswagen Australia says are “Golf GTI-esque levels of performance and handling dynamics to the three-row SUV”.

Powered by a 195kW version of the familiar turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, the all-wheel drive variant can accelerate from standstill to 100km/h in just 6.1 seconds.

Equipment highlights include 20-inch Leeds alloy wheels, HD Matrix LED headlights, premium LED tail-lights with 3D animation, 15.0-inch Discover Pro Max display, head-up display, and progressive steering.

A panoramic sunroof ($2100) is again available as an option.

Optionally, the variant is available with Volkswagen’s Black Style option bundle ($1500) adding 20-inch York alloys and gloss black features including wing mirror caps, roof design strip, and interior garnishing.

“The all-new Tayron is a highly competitive new entrant in the mainstream Large SUV segment, offering an elevated, generously equipped and supremely practical car to customers, at a price that substantially undercuts the established players,” said Volkswagen Australia head of passenger product Arjun Nidigallu.

“The all-new cabin echoes the premium ambience of the Touareg and Tiguan, with high-quality materials and contemporary design. The breadth of standard features, safety and infotainment technology, even on the entry Life grade, has been delivered at extremely competitive price points.

“Our goal is for the all-new Tayron to be even more elevated than the model it replaces, while being attainable to a degree that is likely to surprise and delight customers, particularly when cross-shopping Tayron against its mainstream rivals.”
