Volkswagen has confirmed to bring in 5 new cars in 2026 across different segments and here is a detailed look at them
Volkswagen India is planning to introduce a host of new models over the next few years. The list includes locally produced models as well as full imports. Here we have brought you a rundown of the upcoming models this CY:
1. Volkswagen Tayron R-Line:
Confirmed to go on sale this quarter, the local assembly of the Tayron R-Line has already commenced in India and it will be powered by a 2.0L turbo petrol engine hooked with a seven-speed DSG sending power to all four wheels as standard. Based on the latest generation global Tiguan, the Taigun R-Line is a more premium and practical seven-seater that will sit at the top of the range.
2. Volkswagen Taigun Facelift:
Following the recent launch of the facelifted Kushaq, the updated version of the VW Taigun is just around the corner with cosmetic enhancements and a more upmarket cabin. We can expect the equipment list to mirror that of the latest Kushaq and thus ADAS and a 360-degree camera system could be omitted. No mechanical changes barring a new automatic transmission are likely as it will continue with 1.0L turbo petrol and 1.5L turbo petrol engines.

3. Volkswagen Virtus Facelift:
The Virtus midsize sedan will be subjected to a mid-cycle update in the second half of this calendar year and it will undoubtedly reminisce the equipment list of the upcoming Taigun facelift. Thus, a larger touchscreen with improved connectivity and UI, more premium surface trims and materials and an eight-speed automatic gearbox are of high possibilities.
4. Volkswagen Golf GTI:
The initial Golf GTI sold out in no time in India and riding on the wave of momentum, the German auto major will bring in a new lot later this year in limited quantity as a fully import. It will use a 2.0L turbo four-cylinder petrol engine delivering 265 PS maximum power and 370 Nm of torque. Paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch AT and paddle shifters, the setup allows it to do 0 to 100 kmph in just 5.9 seconds.

5. Volkswagen Tayron:
The standard version of the Tayron is also expected to be introduced this year following the arrival of the R-Line specification. It replaces the Tiguan Allspace in several international markets including Europe and comes with several updates compared to its five-seater Tiguan sibling. While multiple powertrains are offered, India could stick with the familiar 1.5L turbo petrol mill.
