Does the Volkswagen Tharu have an automatic locking feature?
2 Answers
The Tharu is equipped with this feature. When the vehicle reaches the speed set by the computer, the locking button will automatically engage to prevent accidental door opening. Exterior of the Volkswagen Tharu: The exterior adopts the Rock-Cutting design concept, with raised lines on the ridge-like hood enhancing a sense of strength. The wide-body dual U-shaped full LED headlights tilt upwards, and the grille strips extend to the headlights. Interior of the Volkswagen Tharu: The interior features a horizontal design, using IMD material panels to elevate the premium feel. Large decorative panels integrate the instrument cluster, display screen, and air vents into a unified design.
I've been driving the Volkswagen Tharu for over a year now. I remember when I first got the car, I noticed the doors automatically locked while driving on the highway. After checking the manual, I learned this is indeed a factory-equipped auto-locking feature that activates when the speed exceeds about 15 km/h. It doesn't trigger in city traffic jams, but it's quite useful on highways or expressways to prevent accidental door openings. The setup is simple too—there's a 'Door & Window Control' option in the settings menu located below the left side of the steering wheel, where you just need to check 'Auto Lock' to enable it. I also recommend checking it periodically, as system software updates can sometimes reset these settings. Overall, it's a helpful safety feature, especially when traveling with kids. I don't have to constantly worry about whether the doors are locked and can focus more on driving. It feels much more convenient than cars that require manual door locking.
