- Volkswagen Taigun reviewEasily one of the best car your money could buy. Though it doesn't have attractive features like its Korean rivals, this car can get you safe and fresh anywhere you go. Had driven a lot of short and long drives, never failed to excite me. Solid as anything even if you hit 140+ on road. I am confused why this car is not the best selling on the market. To everyone who is buying a car in this segment, please try test-driving this car on a highway once before finalizing any other car. You will change your opinion. If you are worried about mileage, try to be light-footed on the pedal, and you will get extraordinary mileage. My best is 19.5km/l in GT plus. Trust me!!Rating parameters(out of 5)5

The driving experience is one of its kind in this segment. I am getting up to 18 km/h on long journeys. It has got the highest wheelbase in this segment. So comfort is not going to be an issue in this car. Ideal car if you want a sturdy car with the best-built quality and decent mileage for a reasonable price. I purchased this car for 20.5 lakhs rupees.Rating parameters(out of 5)5

About the ReviewerPurchase NewDriven forFew hundred kilometersRead MoreWas this review helpful?31 - Poor mileage issuePoor mileage. Have issues with mileage after the first service getting very less in cities like around 8-9km/h and 12-15km/h on highways. Now issues like the back side door are not locking even after locking in the remote. Ac is not that great. Corrosion-resistant fluid is leaking after a long run. Whenever goes for long drive break dust is there over the alloy wheel and it turns black. Will further update the review after 2nd service. Driven over 5000 Km as of now.Rating parameters(out of 5)4

About the ReviewerPurchase NewDriven forFew thousand kilometersRead MoreWas this review helpful?61 - Sturdy European SUV small outside but big insideEasy buying experience since no waiting time, unlike almost all other car makers. Light steering makes it a super city drive. Great suspension, top build quality, neat & clean interiors, lively entertainment & navigation system, ventilated seats very useful, spacious rear seat, enough thigh support & ample knee & headroom, spacious boot. Driven 5500 kms and Mileage 12-15 km/l depending on the days traffic. The auto engine start stop probably is responsible for this. Cons: A rattling sound emanating from the front left panel is not yet addressed by the carmaker/seller.Rating parameters(out of 5)5
