Which Volkswagen Taigun variant should you buy?
Best value for money: Topline, at ₹1.40L over the GT Line. No other step you pay for is better value for money on the price list.
Above Topline the range keeps going, but every upgrade left changes the engine or the gearbox as well as the kit, so there is no honest way to rank them on money per feature. Choose up there on the powertrain you want.

There is no like-for-like way up here: the cheapest GT Plus Chrome moves from 1.0L TSI Petrol 6-speed manual to 1.5L TSI Petrol 7-speed dual-clutch auto (DCA), so that figure covers the powertrain as well as the kit.
- All-wheel disc brakes
What the road does to this ranking
Where you register does not change which step is the best buy here. GT Line to Topline asks the least money for each point of kit it hands over on the price list, and that holds once road tax is counted too, in all 25 of the states we can price this ladder in.
Why the road could have changed this, and did not
Every price on this page is the showroom's. States charge their road tax as a share of that price and step the share up in bands, so a trim that carries a car past a band boundary is charged for the whole boundary. A ranking worked out on the price list is not automatically the ranking you pay.
Take the badged step, GT Line to Topline: ₹1,40,000 on the price list, and anywhere from ₹1,49,800 to ₹1,94,400 on the road. Gujarat and Mizoram are level at the lowest, and Kerala comes out highest, across the 25 states behind that range. Every other step moves by its own amount, and that is what can reorder them.
We ranked all 4 of the steps we can compare like for like again in each of those states, and the order came back the same every time. So the badge above is safe to act on wherever you buy the car.
Where the kit that matters lands
- Airbags
- All 6 are standard from the base Comfortline, so nobody has to spend up for them.
- Safety kit
- GT Plus Chrome, from ₹19.00L, is the cheapest trim with every safety feature this car offers at its best.
The good news
Spending past it buys comfort and cosmetics, not protection.- Cheapest automatic
- Highline Turbo Petrol AT, ₹13.80L
Then there is the engine
Picking the trim is only half of it. The Taigun is sold with 2 powertrains, and the cheapest way into each is a different amount of money.
| Engine | Cheapest way in | Gearbox | Official figure |
|---|---|---|---|
| Turbo Petrol115 PS | Comfortline₹11.00L | 6-speed manual | 20 km/l |
| Turbo Petrol150 PS | GT Plus Chrome₹19.00L | 7-speed dual-clutch auto (DCA) | 18.9 km/l |
