This announcement comes exactly one month after these variants were first revealed, introducing a sportier aesthetic with chrome-delete features and other blacked-out elements. These new models are available in both manual and automatic transmission options as well.
For the Taigun GT Line, prices range between Rs 14.08 lakh (ex-showroom) and Rs 15.63 lakh (ex-showroom). It's available with a 1.0-litre engine, offering both manual and auto transmissions. On the other hand, the Taigun GT Plus Sport variant with its 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine, is priced between Rs 18.54 lakh (ex-showroom) and Rs 19.74 lakh (ex-showroom).
Volkswagen has also included a complimentary 4-year Service Value Package (SVP) for the higher-spec GT Plus Sport trims. Deliveries for these new models have already begun this month, adding to the excitement of potential buyers.
The Taigun GT Line is geared towards those seeking a sporty yet efficient vehicle. It comes with a 114bhp, 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine and is available in both 6-speed manual and 6-speed automatic variants.
Visually, it stands out with black 17-inch 'Cassino' alloy wheels and a complete black finish replacing the chrome on the exterior, including the front grille, headlights, roof rails, spoiler, and badges. The interior follows the same theme with contrast grey stitching adding a touch of elegance.
Moving up the range, the Taigun GT Plus Sport is aimed at drivers looking for more power. It is equipped with a 148bhp, 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine, available in 6-speed manual and 7-speed dual-clutch automatic variants.
This model adds a sporty flair with contrasting red bits, including GT badges and brake calipers. The interior also features red accents, alongside aluminium pedals for an enhanced driving experience.
The new blacked-out Taigun variants are set to compete against established players such as the Skoda Kushaq Monte Carlo, Kia Seltos X-Line, and the Hyundai Creta N Line. With prices ranging from Rs 17.29 lakh (ex-showroom) to Rs 20.45 lakh (ex-showroom) for the competition, Volkswagen's offerings are competitively priced.
