One of the key reasons enthusiasts adore Volkswagen cars is that they always stay ahead of the curve with consistent innovation. Volkswagen's Annual Brand Conference 2024 further reinforced this idea with the unveiling of two new GT variants of the popular Taigun SUV - the GT Plus Sport and the GT Line. The carmaker also introduced a new line structure with three trim options dubbed Chrome, Sport, and GT Edge. Each trim has unique design elements, setting them apart.
Now, we have always loved the Taigun ever since it made its India debut. Not only is it the most fun-to-drive SUV in its segment, but it's also a practical, feature-loaded, and comfortable family SUV. Not to mention, thanks to its robust MQB-AO IN platform and a 5-star Global NCAP safety rating, it's one of the safest Made-in-India family SUVS in the country.
The introduction of the new GT variants, therefore, further cements Volkswagen's commitment towards Indian customers as well as the brand's constant endeavour to provide the enthusiasts with what they seek from their SUVW. So, let's delve into the details of each of the new variants and see what these new trim options bring to the table.
GT FOR ALL
Volkswagen's GT series has been a fan favourite in India since time immemorial. Whether it's the iconic Polo GT series or the new Taigun and Virtus, the VW GT nameplate is synonymous with thrills and driver involvement. To make the GT experience more wholesome for the Taigun customers, Volkswagen has now brought out the new Sport trim to the Taigun line-up. The highlights of the Sport trim include several blacked-out bits, both inside and out, that give the SUV a racy demeanour.
