Volkswagen is bringing a new SUV called the Tayron to India by March 2026.
This SUV will have three rows of seats and will be built in India using parts that are put together here.

The Tayron will be priced between Rs 45 and 50 lakh and will have a big engine and special safety features.
It will compete with other SUVs like the Jeep Meridian and Skoda Kodiaq.
Volkswagen wants to make more money by building the car in India instead of importing it.
