I've driven the Volkswagen Tharu for a while and found it to be a very practical SUV, especially suitable for someone like me who commutes in the city. The body is compact but not stingy, with spacious interior space. The rear seats can easily accommodate several large bags, and the trunk has no problem holding luggage for weekend trips. It's powered by a 1.5T engine, providing smooth starts and acceleration—not as powerful as larger engines, but it offers good fuel efficiency for daily use, averaging around 7L/100km. The interior design is simple and functional, equipped with a touchscreen for convenient control of air conditioning and navigation. As for drawbacks, the noise insulation is average, with noticeable wind noise at high speeds, and maintenance costs are slightly higher than some smaller brands. Overall, I think it offers great value for money, especially in the price range around 200,000 yuan, competing with models like the Honda CR-V, but with the added trust of the Volkswagen brand. If you're looking for a family car, the Tharu is worth a try.
