Volkswagen has released design sketches of its new Taigo sporty SUV coupe, ahead of the model’s official European première, in near-production concept form.
The Taigo is a new addition to Volkswagen’s range of SUVs in the small vehicle segment. It impresses with a dynamic and emotional design. The new model also comes with a multitude of assistance systems and state-of-the-art connectivity.
The CUV (Crossover Utility Vehicle) combines an elevated seating position with a sporty coupe silhouette. Volkswagen says the new Taigo will be launched on the market with economical TSI engines, LED headlights as standard, a modern operating concept, a fully digital cockpit and a multitude of assist systems.
The Taigo is based on the successful Nivus model from Brazil, and will be manufactured for the European market in Pamplona, Spain. The new CUV will make its début this summer and will be launched on the market at the end of 2021.
