Powertrain
A keen three-cylinder turbo that suits town and highway alike, and the only route to a manual. The new 8-speed automatic is the relaxed pick and costs you very little economy against the manual

What the Topline Turbo Petrol MT costs on the road
The price above is the sticker. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the Topline Turbo Petrol MT comes to ₹16,89,480 on the road in Itanagar and ₹19,28,400 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,38,920 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹16.00L ex-showroom Delhi this is the eighth of 10 Taigun variants by price, ₹25,000 above the GT Line Turbo Petrol AT. It is also the cheapest of the 2 ways into Topline: the same kit as the Topline Turbo Petrol AT for ₹1.18L less. Stepping up to GT Plus Chrome from here starts at ₹3.00L more and buys all-wheel disc brakes. Worth knowing that the GT Plus Chrome is not sold with the Turbo Petrol with the 6-speed manual, so the move changes the powertrain too.
More about the Topline trim
The 1.0's flagship: panoramic sunroof, ventilated electric front seats, 10.25in cockpit, subwoofer audio, leatherette and the connected suite with SOS calling. Also the first trim with cruise control on the manual.
Volkswagen Taigun Topline: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Volkswagen Taigun Topline Turbo Petrol MT?
- ₹16.00L, ex-showroom Delhi. That makes it 8th of 10 by price, ₹25,000 above the GT Line Turbo Petrol AT.
- What is the on-road price of the Volkswagen Taigun Topline Turbo Petrol MT?
- Expect ₹16,89,480 in Itanagar and ₹19,28,400 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹2,38,920 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the sticker plus road tax, registration and the rest of the charges, across the 25 states we have verified. It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.
- Which engine and gearbox does the Volkswagen Taigun Topline Turbo Petrol MT have?
- The Turbo Petrol, 115 PS, with the 6-speed manual. The maker's figure for it is 20 km/l.
- What features does the Volkswagen Taigun Topline Turbo Petrol MT get?
- The kit worth naming on this trim: Ventilated front seats, Connected car tech, Cruise control, Powered driver seat (6-way), Sunroof (Panoramic) and Leatherette upholstery.
- What does the Volkswagen Taigun Topline Turbo Petrol MT miss out on?
- The GT Plus Chrome above it adds all-wheel disc brakes, for ₹3.00L more. That is a different engine or gearbox though: the GT Plus Chrome is not sold with this one.
- Is the Topline the right Taigun to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Volkswagen Taigun which-variant page. The short version: pay for a step only where the kit it adds is kit you would actually use.
