Volkswagen is reducing the recommended retail prices of its Passat, Tiguan and Tayron plug-in eHybrid models by £750-£950, making electrified motoring even more accessible for Volkswagen customers.
The new prices are available for customers placing a new-build factory order for a Passat, Tiguan or Tayron eHybrid from Wednesday 4 February.
Passat eHybrids overview…
Passat eHybrids can drive up to 82 miles on electric power alone (WLTP combined) and support charging at up to 40 kW DC, so the battery can go from five to 80 percent in about 26 minutes. Each model uses a 1.5 TSI engine paired with the battery, producing 204 to 272 PS and reaching 62 mph in as little as 7.1 seconds. The boot holds 510 litres, or 1,920 litres with the rear seats folded.
The Passat has been part of Volkswagen’s lineup for over 50 years. The latest, ninth-generation model has won several major awards and is very aerodynamic. With a drag coefficient of just 0.25, it moves through the air more easily than some sports cars, helping to make driving quieter and more efficient.
Tiguan eHybrids overview…
Tiguan eHybrids can travel up to 75 miles on electric power alone (WLTP combined) and support charging at up to 40 kW DC, so the battery can go from five to 80 percent in about 26 minutes. Each model uses a 1.5 TSI engine with the battery, producing 204 to 272 PS and reaching 62 mph in as little as 7.2 seconds. The boot holds 490 litres, or 1,486 litres with the rear seats folded.
The Tiguan is Volkswagen’s best-selling model worldwide and was one of two Volkswagen cars, along with the Golf, in last year’s top 10 best sellers in the UK. All Tiguan eHybrid models come with DCC Pro adaptive running gear as standard. This system improves driving dynamics and uses two-valve shock absorbers, a technology similar to variable dampers used in motorsport.
Tayron e-Hybrids overview…
Tayron five-seat e-Hybrids can drive up to 74 miles on electric power alone (WLTP combined) and support charging at up to 40 kW DC, so the battery can go from five to 80 per cent in about 26 minutes. Like the Passat and Tiguan, they use a 1.5 TSI engine with the battery, producing 204 to 272 PS and reaching 62 mph in as little as 7.3 seconds. The boot holds 705 litres, or 1,915 litres with the rear seats folded.
The Tayron, available with up to seven seats in non-eHybrid versions, offers a practical mix of comfort, style, and quality. It sits between the Tiguan and Volkswagen’s top SUV, the Touareg.
