The Tayron GTE utilizes excess engine power to charge the battery. Its body dimensions are: length 4603mm, width 1860mm, height 1658mm, with a wheelbase of 2730mm and a curb weight of 1835kg. The Tayron GTE is equipped with a 1.4T inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 150PS, maximum torque of 250Nm, and maximum power of 115kW. The engine reaches its maximum power at 5500 to 6000rpm and maximum torque at 1750 to 3000rpm, paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've been driving the Volkswagen Tayron GTE for over half a year, and the charging methods are actually quite flexible and convenient. As a plug-in hybrid, it supports home AC charging. I usually just plug the charging cable into a standard 220V socket in my garage, and a full charge takes about 3-4 hours. If you install a dedicated charging station, the higher power can reduce the charging time. I've also tried charging at mall parking lots using public DC fast charging ports, which can charge up to 80% in just half an hour—perfect when you're in a hurry. The charging port is located on the rear side of the car; just open the cover and plug it in. Remember to check the indicator light for safety before unplugging. I've developed a habit of charging it every night when I get home, ensuring a full charge for commuting the next day—saving on fuel costs and being environmentally friendly.
