Visually, the front of the Tayron appears particularly high, underlining the SUV’s confidence. The large, sculptured bonnet is heavily contoured to the outer edges. The striking dual LED headlights are also located noticeably high up. The two top-of-the-range versions Elegance and R-Line are equipped as standard with LED Plus headlights, which include automatic headlight range control and dynamic cornering lights, among other things. Derived from technology in the Touareg, the IQ.LIGHT HD matrix headlights are available as an option. In all versions, the Volkswagen logo and the upper of two glass-covered horizontal radiator grille bars light up when the driving lights are active. The horizontal LED bar forms a visually continuous light strip together with the horizontal LED daytime running light strips in the headlights. The fusion of all the LED elements creates an unmistakable day and night light signature for the Tayron. Individual bumper look.

The Tayron R-Line with Black Style package has an additional high-gloss black surface in the lower area of the bumper.

Volkswagen is launching a new SUV model on the European market: the Tayron. The five- or seven-seater sport utility vehicle is positioned between the exclusive Touareg (premium class) and the efficient Tiguan (mid-sized class). Pre-sales are due to start in the autumn. The Tayron was developed and designed in Wolfsburg, and that’s also where it will be built. The SUV’s technical basis is the latest evolutionary stage of the modular transverse (MQB evo) platform. In addition, technology systems that were first developed for the Touareg have been adapted. Examples of the technology transferred to the Tayron include the interactive IQ.LIGHT HD matrix headlights and the seats with a pneumatic 10-chamber pressure point massage function.

In future, the drivers and passengers of all new ID. models and the new Tiguan and Passat can use the voice assistant to access the database of artificial intelligence offered by ChatGPT, in order to have researched content read out while driving. The integration of ChatGPT offers a host of new possibilities that go far beyond the previous voice control. Nothing changes for the person at the wheel during use – there is no need to create a new account or install a new app. The voice assistant is activated with ‘Hello IDA’ and the request is forwarded to the AI in anonymised form only if the previous systems are unable to provide an answer. ChatGPT does not have any access to the vehicle data. Questions and answers are also deleted immediately in order to ensure the best possible data protection. New Wellness app. The optional Wellness app is a new development. This allows various vehicle functions to be adjusted via preconfigured programmes to enhance well-being during the journey or breaks. In the ID.3 GTX, the app uses features such as background lighting, sound and air conditioning for this. Sound composers have specifically developed acoustic sound tapestries for the Wellness app. The new In-Car App is launched on the infotainment system. The following three wellness modes will be available in the launch phase of the app: Fresh Up, Calm Down and Power Break. An example: with just one click, Fresh Up activates a stimulating sound, refreshing air conditioning as well as blue and turquoise zones of the background lighting, which thus takes on a fresh colour appearance. A blue light animation runs in parallel in the ID. Light below the windscreen. If wished, the mode can be customised according to individual preferences: a Spotify playlist can be used instead of the pre-programmed sound, for example.
