Plug-in hybrid technology
Discover how performance, battery placement and charging technology work together in the Tiguan and Tayron eHybrid.
All the power no matter the fuel
Two power sources that work as one
The electric motor is cleverly integrated directly between the TSI petrol engine and the 6-speed DSG transmission, so both power sources drive through the same gearset. Together, they deliver up to 200kW of combined output and up to 400Nm of torque , with smooth, familiar shifting and the kind of drive you expect from a Volkswagen. A 1.5 litre TSI turbocharged petrol engine works totally in sync with the electric motor so you can move from A to B with total confidence.
A drive that feels composed
Battery build and placement
A 19.7kWh lithium-ion battery delivers over 100km of electric driving for everyday trips.
Integrated into the vehicle architecture rather than added on, it helps preserve balance, stability and confident handling. Positioned low within the structure, it supports a stable centre of gravity and composed control on the road.
Clever temperature management quietly looks after the battery, helping maintain smooth, consistent performance in changing conditions.
A system that charges at home or on the road
Charge up, no dramas
Charge at home with up to 11kW from AC charging, or top up on the road with up to 40kW using DC fast charging. Mode 2 and Mode 3 charging cables are included, so you’re ready from the get go.
To enhance your electric range, regenerative braking captures energy as you slow down, helping extend electric driving wherever possible. It’s a system designed to help keep your day moving along, wherever it may take you.
A work of smart
Say hello to brilliant technology that turns every drive into something extraordinary. From dynamic headlights that adapt as you steer, to front ErgoActive seats that remember your perfect position.
Everything feels intuitive. Effortless.
Adaptive Chassis Control (DCC Pro)
DCC Pro lets you tailor the suspension to suit the road and your driving style. Switch between comfort and sport, or fine-tune your settings in Individual mode. Electronically controlled, the system adjusts in milliseconds, responding precisely to changing conditions leaving you with clean handling, sharper control and a highly balanced drive.
Progressive steering
Offers a more dynamic feel in the bends, while providing quick, responsive steering for city driving and parking (only available in the R-Line).
Peace of mind as standard
With a five star ANCAP safety rating and clever technology that helps you steer clear of danger, the plug-in hybrid Tayron SUV keeps you one step ahead of whatever life throws your way.4
Safety that thinks ahead
Safety that thinks ahead
Drive easy, while keeping your passengers safe. Travel Assist with Adaptive Cruise Control keeps a pre-set distance from the car ahead and uses Lane Assist with adaptive land guidance to maintain your position in your lane. And Side Assist helps you when changing lanes by showing a warning light in your side-view mirror when a vehicle is in your blind spot or approaching from behind.
Advanced safety on busy roads
Advanced safety on busy roads
Stay safe proactively with numerous accident prevention technologies
Here are just a few:
Front Cross Traffic Assist
When pulling out of a busy intersection, Front Cross Traffic Assist warns you if something comes in your path – and can even brake automatically in emergencies.
Rear Traffic Alert
When reversing out of a driveway or carpark, Rear Traffic Alert can detect cross traffic behind your vehicle and alerts you with a chime and warning indicator.
Oncoming vehicle braking when turning
To help prevent collisions, the Tayron comes equipped with oncoming vehicle braking that automatically kicks in when you’re turning if the car detects a vehicle in your path.
Exit warning system
Exit warning system
A second pair of eyes before you get out. Getting to your destination means leaving your vehicle safely, too. The innovative exit warning system1 alerts you to other road users, such as cyclists, approaching your parked car from behind. Helping you, and all your passengers, exit the vehicle more safely.
