Are the Tharu and Tayron in the same class?
2 Answers
The Tharu and Tayron are not in the same class of vehicles. The Tayron is a mid-size SUV, while the Tharu is a compact SUV. Here are some introductions about the Tharu and Tayron: 1. Tayron: The Tayron is a model under FAW-Volkswagen. Its design is generally more rounded and lively. Such a design is certainly more suitable for lower-end SUVs like the T-Roc, but on the Tayron, it feels a bit "frivolous". 2. Tharu: Its front face continues the style of the big brother Teramont. A large number of straight and rugged lines create a powerful front face, paired with two thick chrome strips in the grille, adding a touch of refined and fashionable feeling, which can be said to appeal to all ages.
When it comes to whether the Tharu and Tayron are in the same class, I see quite a few differences between them. From the perspective of daily driving, the Tharu feels more like an entry-level compact SUV, with space suitable for urban commuting and a more affordable price—just over 200,000 RMB will get you one. For someone like me driving it to work, it’s fuel-efficient and convenient. The Tayron, on the other hand, is a size larger, positioned as a midsize SUV, with a more luxurious interior and extra rear-seat space that comfortably fits an additional person. Its starting price is a few ten thousand higher, making it better suited for family trips and luggage hauling. If you’re on a tight budget, the Tharu is sufficient; but if you frequently go on outings, the Tayron offers better value. Volkswagen has a clear strategy with these two models—the former is economical and practical, while the latter leans toward comfort and enjoyment. In short, they’re in different classes, so it’s best to test-drive both to feel the difference in space before buying.
