The Tayron uses the DQ381 model transmission, equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Tayron is a mid-size SUV under the Volkswagen brand, with body dimensions of 4589mm in length, 1860mm in width, and 1660mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2731mm. In terms of power, 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. For suspension, the Tayron uses a MacPherson independent suspension at the front and a multi-link independent suspension at the rear.

I know quite a lot about the Volkswagen Tayron SUV, having driven related models for several years. It typically uses a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, with common DSG models like the DQ381. It offers fast gear shifts and good fuel efficiency, making it suitable for city commuting. Compared to the older AT transmissions, the dual-clutch is more efficient, though it occasionally has slight jerks during initial acceleration, which is more noticeable in the smaller 1.4T version. From personal experience, regular transmission oil changes during maintenance are crucial—check every 60,000 km—otherwise, issues may arise that affect its lifespan. If you choose the Tayron, proper transmission maintenance will keep it running smoothly, and overall, it’s a reliable setup.

Last year, I test-drove the Tayron equipped with a 7-speed DSG dual-clutch transmission. The specific model (e.g., DQ200 or DQ381) varies depending on the engine version. The driving experience was direct: quick power delivery, smooth acceleration, and particularly responsive in Sport mode. The downside was slight jerkiness during low-speed crawling, though it became negligible once accustomed. Daily driving proved economical with decent fuel efficiency. It's advisable to avoid aggressive acceleration during the break-in period to prevent premature wear. Overall, this transmission makes the Tayron engaging to drive without feeling sluggish.

The Tayron's transmission is primarily equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch DSG, with the DQ381 being one of the mainstream models. This design features two clutch plates, enabling seamless and efficient gear shifts while being more fuel-efficient than traditional AT transmissions. However, it's important to warm up the vehicle before starting to prevent jerking. Maintenance is straightforward, with basic fluid changes being sufficient.
