Volkswagen India is set to expand its lineup with the launch of the Tiguan R-Line and the iconic Golf GTI in early Q2 2025. The move aligns with the brandโ€™s focus on offering global vehicles in the premium segment. VWโ€™s India portfolio has seen steady growth with models like the Taigun and Virtus, which cater to the mass-market segment. Now, the brand is looking to attract driving enthusiasts with two globally recognized performance-oriented models. The Tiguan R-Line is a sportier take on the premium SUV, while the Golf GTI is a renowned hot-hatch that will finally make it to Indian roads.


VW Tiguan R-Line: A Sportier Version of VW’s Premium SUV

The Tiguan R-Line is a more dynamic version of Volkswagenโ€™s well-known premium SUV. It offers an R-Line styling package, improved aerodynamics, and sportier driving characteristics. Expected to be powered by a 2.0L TSI petrol engine, it will have a 7-speed DSG automatic transmission and Volkswagenโ€™s 4MOTION all-wheel-drive system.


VW Golf GTI: Famous Hot Hatch Finally India-Bound

Globally celebrated as one of the best hot hatches, the VW Golf GTI is set to make its mark in India. The model features a 2.0L turbocharged petrol engine, delivering around 241 hp, paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Known for its razor-sharp handling and driver-focused dynamics, the Golf GTI will be a compelling choice for performance enthusiasts.


Volkswagenโ€™s Commitment to India

Volkswagenโ€™s India portfolio has seen steady growth with models like the Taigun and Virtus, which cater to the mass-market segment. Developed on the MQB A0-IN platform, both the vehicles are tailor-made for Indian consumers. Now, the brand is looking to attract driving enthusiasts with two globally recognized performance-oriented models. The Tiguan R-Line will bring a sportier take on the brandโ€™s premium SUV, while the Golf GTI should enthral the performance enthusiasts.

The brand has also expanded its dealership and service network across India. Moreover, the Taigun and Virtus have been in the limelight for achieving top scores at the NCAP test bed.
