Volkswagen India has entered the compact SUV segment with the launch of the all-new Taigun. The SUV is priced from Rs. 10.50 lakh, going up to Rs. 17.50 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). While the prices are quite competitive, the company simultaneously launched a very lucrative 'Service Value Package' for the Taigun, which starts at Rs. 21,999, for 4 years. The new VW Taigun is offered with two turbocharged petrol engines - a 1.0-litre TSI and a 1.5-litre TSI. Both come with a 6-speed manual, along with an optional 6-speed torque converter for the 1.0 TSI and a 7-speed DSG automatic transmission for the 1.5 TSI.

Announcing the package, Ashish Gupta, Brand Director, Volkswagen Passenger Cars India said, "A Volkswagen only needs a service once a year or 15,000 km. This means that you can now maintain your Taigun at a little over Rs. 5000 a year."
