Is the Tayron a FAW-Volkswagen or SAIC Volkswagen model?
2 Answers
Tayron is a model under FAW-Volkswagen, and it is a mid-size SUV. Tayron specifications: The length, width, and height of the Tayron are 4589 mm, 1860 mm, and 1660 mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2731 mm. The Tayron is equipped with three engines: a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, a low-power version 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, and a high-power version 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. Tayron configurations: In terms of configurations, the entry-level 280TSI Comfort Smart Link version of the Tayron adds an 8-inch touchscreen entertainment information system, dual front USB interfaces, and ambient interior lighting compared to the current model, while removing the PM2.5 filtration device. The 280TSI Luxury Smart Link version adds a panoramic sunroof, one-touch start, and keyless entry for the entire vehicle on top of the base model. The 380TSI 4WD R-Line Smart Link version is equipped with a 9.2-inch touchscreen entertainment information system but no longer includes rain-sensing wipers.
As someone who has long followed the automotive industry, I'm often asked this question. The Tayron is indeed a model under FAW-Volkswagen, as they have a very clear product line division in the Chinese market. FAW-Volkswagen is primarily responsible for producing and selling SUVs like the Tayron, including this model manufactured at the Changchun plant. On the other hand, Shanghai Volkswagen, also known as SAIC Volkswagen, offers similarly positioned models like the Tiguan series. I've seen the Tayron showcased at various auto shows—it emphasizes urban driving and comfort, with a relatively affordable price. If you're car shopping, I recommend visiting a FAW-Volkswagen dealership for details or checking the official website for accurate information to avoid confusion. This distinction is crucial for making an informed purchase decision and prevents wasting time at the wrong place. By the way, FAW-Volkswagen cars are more commonly seen in northern markets, but overall, their quality is quite reliable. For instance, I've driven a friend's Tayron and found its handling very stable.
