The Volkswagen Tayron will be launched in India as the new flagship SUV and is set to reach our shores initially in the R-Line trim, bringing sportier visuals and more power to the table. Unlike the Tiguan, it will be assembled locally, resulting in a more competitive price. The Tayron R-Line derives its power from a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine that sends 204 hp and 320 Nm of torque through a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox and an all-wheel-drive system.

The BMW X3 30 xDrive M Sport Pro will be produced locally at the group’s Chennai plant and is slated for launch on February 16. Under the hood, it gets an uprated version of the 2.0-litre turbo petrol unit, sending 258 bhp and 400 Nm through an 8-speed automatic to all four wheels. The new X3 further puts on a sportier black trim, larger alloys, and M badging all around.

Measuring over five metres in length and boasting a 2,950 mm wheelbase, it brings an assertive on-road presence and a spacious cabin. It is expected to carry over the two diesel engines from the Gloster lineup, with buyers able to choose between RWD and AWD configurations.
