The All-New Volkswagen Tayron Arrives in South Africa

Volkswagen South Africa has officially launched the much-anticipated Volkswagen Tayron

After making waves at the Volkswagen Indaba earlier this year, the highly anticipated Volkswagen Tayron is officially open for pre-orders. This isn’t just another SUV launch — this is Volkswagen setting a new benchmark in the premium 7-seater SUV space, bridging the gap between the versatile Tiguan and the luxurious Touareg. With its blend of cutting-edge technology, all-terrain capability, and premium comfort, the Tayron is designed for South Africans who want it all — style, space, and sophistication.

Design That Turns Heads.

Measuring 4.79 metres in length, the Tayron commands attention with its clean, sharp SUV silhouette. Up front, you’ll find LED headlights and a standard illuminated Volkswagen badge, giving it a signature light profile that’s unmistakably VW. At the rear, the full-width horizontal LED bar and illuminated logo complete the premium look.

Step inside, and you’re welcomed by an interior that matches its bold exterior. High-quality finishes like ArtVelours Eco (microfibre), illuminated trim inserts on the dash and doors, and ambient lighting create an inviting cabin for every journey.

Three Models to Suit Your Style.
  • Tayron (Base)

    5-seater with Eco LED headlights, Park Assist, Blind Spot Monitor, Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, and 18-inch Bologna alloys.

  • Tayron Life

    Adds 9 airbags, 3-zone climate control, 10-colour background lighting, digital cockpit, 12.9-inch infotainment with wireless App-Connect, illuminated badges, and 3D LED taillights.

  • Tayron R-Line

    Sportier and more luxurious with R-designed bumpers, LED Plus headlights, Varenna leather seats with massage function, heated front seats, 30-colour ambient lighting, and 19-inch Coventry alloys.

Performance & Powertrain.

Under the bonnet, the Tayron is powered by a 1.4 TSI engine producing 110kW and 250Nm of torque (available between 1,500–3,500rpm), paired with a 7-speed DSG transmission for smooth, responsive driving — whether you’re in the city or out exploring South Africa’s rugged landscapes.

Why the Tayron Stands Out.
  • Versatility – Perfect for family adventures or executive comfort.

  • Innovation – Advanced driver assistance and digital cockpit tech as standard.

  • Presence – A design that commands respect on and off the road.

Pricing will be announced closer to the official launch — but pre-orders are live right now! If you want to be among the first to own Volkswagen’s newest SUV icon, now’s the time to act.
