Tayron features an infrared-sensing automatic tailgate, which can be activated by simply sweeping your foot left and right beneath the tailgate, as there is no mechanical switch. Below are the relevant details about the Tayron: 1. Configuration: The Tayron adopts Volkswagen's new family-style design language, with a horizontal slatted front grille and LED headlights on both sides, effectively extending the horizontal visual width. The waistline extends from the headlights to the taillights, with a rounded and spacious rear design, and the vehicle's robust lines create a muscular appearance. Inside, the Tayron features the latest family-style design, with the dashboard slightly tilted towards the driver's seat for easier operation, while the lower part of the center console and the gear lever area follow a more traditional, simple, and clear layout. The 10.3-inch full LCD instrument panel paired with a 9.2-inch central touchscreen and 10-color adjustable ambient lighting make the interior more youthful and stylish. 2. Powertrain: The Tayron is equipped with a 1.4T L4 turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 110kW and a maximum torque of 250N·m, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 2.0T L4 turbocharged engine is available in two versions (high and low power), also matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

Having driven the Volkswagen Tayron for so many years, I know this car inside out. Locking the doors while the engine is running? It's a piece of cake – just press the lock button on the remote key fob from outside, and the system will automatically detect the key's position to prevent accidental lockouts. Just make sure the key is on your person and not left inside the car. I often do this during winter warm-ups – shut the door with the engine running while I grab something. Volkswagen's design is quite smart, avoiding the issues older cars might have. If the remote battery dies, you can still use the mechanical key in the lock cylinder, but it's best to check the key fob battery regularly. All in all, this operation is safe and convenient, perfect for those quick errands when you need to step away briefly.

Every time I drive my Tharu out and need to step away briefly without getting in and out of the car, like when waiting for someone, I prefer to lock the doors while the engine is still running. Just press the lock button on the remote key, and the car remains started with the AC continuing to blow cool or warm air. You can get back in without needing to restart the car. The key is to get used to keeping the key in your pocket and not leaving it in the car, otherwise, if the door closes tightly, you might get locked out. Volkswagen's electronic system won't let you make mistakes easily, but it's best not to be careless. I often do this at the supermarket entrance, locking the car for just a few minutes before unlocking it when I return—super convenient. Remember, it's fine to lock the car for short periods, but don't leave it unattended for too long to avoid attracting unwanted attention.

As a car enthusiast, I've studied the locking mechanism of the Tayron. When the engine is running, the most reliable method is to lock the doors using the remote key from outside the vehicle. The electronic system will detect whether the key signal is outside the car, and only allow locking if confirmed. This design prevents accidental key lock-ins. If you want to lock from inside, you can use the lock button on the door panel, but ensure the key is within the car's sensing range, otherwise the doors won't lock or an alarm may trigger. Modern Volkswagen vehicles all have this feature for anti-theft convenience when owners need to leave briefly. I recommend regularly testing the remote buttons to ensure responsive performance. For safety, always check that all windows and doors are properly closed before locking the running vehicle.
