The dimensions of the Volkswagen Tayron are 4589mm in length, 1860mm in width, and 1660mm in height, as per official data. The length of the Volkswagen Tayron refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the outermost protruding points at the front and rear of the vehicle. The width refers to the distance between two parallel planes aligned with the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding points on both sides of the vehicle. The height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and its supporting plane. The turbocharged engine of the Volkswagen Tayron delivers maximum power outputs of 110kW, 137kW, and 162kW, with maximum torque outputs of 250Nm, 320Nm, and 350Nm. It features direct fuel injection technology and utilizes an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. This engine is paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. National regulations stipulate specific dimensions for vehicles. According to the national standard 'GB1589-89,' the total width of a vehicle excludes side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is designed to ensure sufficient lateral clearance between adjacent lanes for overtaking. This means that under national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in providing adequate space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to comply with the requirements of public road usage.
Last time I accompanied a friend to test drive the Tayron, and I remember its dimensions very clearly. The car is 4593mm long, about 10cm longer than the previous model, making the rear seats noticeably more spacious. With a width of 1860mm, it fits just right in those multi-level parking garages at shopping malls, allowing enough room to maneuver. The height of 1660mm paired with 20-inch wheels gives it a sufficiently imposing look. The most practical feature is the 2731mm wheelbase—even with someone like me, who's 1.8m tall, adjusting the driver's seat to a comfortable position, there's still enough legroom in the back to cross your legs. With the rear seats folded down, the trunk can fit two large suitcases plus a stroller, and it's rarely filled to capacity even when packing camping gear for a weekend family trip. However, the turning radius is on the larger side, so you might need to make a couple more steering adjustments when doing a U-turn on narrow roads.
