Volkswagen Taigun SUV Hits Nepal: Price, Power & Safety Unveiled

Volkswagen has officially launched the Taigun SUV in Nepal, bringing German engineering to local roads. Debuted at the Nepal Mobility Expo by official distributor Pooja International Nepal Pvt. Ltd., the Taigun offers a practical yet powerful alternative for SUV buyers in the country.


Taigun Nepal Price and Variants

Volkswagen has kept it simple. Two variants are available:

  • Base model: NPR 54,90,000

  • Top variant: NPR 94,00,000

Both versions share the same engine and safety features—only the trims and transmission differ.


1.5L TSI Turbo Engine with 150PS

At the core of the Taigun is a 1.5-litre TSI turbo-petrol engine, delivering a punchy 150 PS of power. What sets it apart is the Active Cylinder Management (ACT) tech—switching between 4 and 2 cylinders depending on the load. That means:

  • Full power when you need it

  • Better mileage when you don’t

  • Less fuel waste in city traffic

It’s fast when pushed and efficient when cruising.


Designed for Nepal

With a ground clearance of 188mm, the Taigun handles both city bumps and village roads with ease. Paired with a strong chassis and compact body, this SUV is:

  • Urban-friendly: Easy to maneuver in tight spaces

  • Rural-ready: Stable on uneven roads

No need to slow down when the tarmac ends.


5-Star NCAP, 6 Airbags, ESC & More

Safety isn’t optional. The Taigun scored a 5-star rating from Global NCAP, making it one of the safest compact SUVs in Nepal. Key features include:

  • 6 airbags

  • Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

  • Hill-Hold Control (HHC)

  • Crumple zones and reinforced frame

It’s got everything to keep you and your passengers safe—whether in Kathmandu traffic or on hilly switchbacks.


Transmission That Delivers: 7-Speed DSG Automatic

The top variant of the Taigun comes with a 7-speed DSG automatic gearbox. It's quick, clean, and precise. You’ll feel:

  • Faster gear shifts

  • Smoother takeoffs

  • Less effort during stop-and-go drives

This is the kind of gearbox that doesn’t slow you down or get in your way.


Why the Volkswagen Taigun Works for Nepal

  • Powerful turbo engine made for hills and highways

  • Smart cylinder tech saves fuel without slowing down

  • High ground clearance for rough roads

  • Reliable safety features for peace of mind

  • Clear pricing and real value across variants



The Volkswagen Taigun is not just another SUV. It’s built to perform, built to last, and built with real-world driving in mind—especially for Nepal’s roads. Whether you're headed into the city or up the hills, the Taigun delivers on all fronts: power, safety, style, and value.

If you're in the market for a compact, powerful, and reliable SUV, this is the one to watch.
