Something sounds strange to me. I had a test drive with the taigo and i liked the 1.5 L with Dsg. It was responsive and comfortable even at low rpm. I'm 1.75 tall and I can tellyou there was enough legroom in the back, passing my hand in front of my knees and over the head. In the video the front seat seems to be pulled back to the end. Most car haven't much legroom with seats in that position. Bootspace is good, 440L insn't it? You can go for travel with 4 passengers and lluggage...A well balanced car. And the price is not absolutly the same of t-roc, it is 3000 euros cheaper. So, this taigo will fit the needs of a sgmented market in my opinion

I bought my new Tiago in January and hope to take delivery in the summer. For me, it was the mix of being a T-Cross and Polo that I liked. Nice technology, solid build, not too big but still big enough, relatively cheap to tax and insure.

@@kgatlhiso I've now been driving my Taigo since early May and really loving it. It's a 1 litre, automatic. My first car was the VW UP!. It's certainly been a step up for me, but I needed more space and something more comfortable after 10 years with the UP. If you mean a first car for a young driver, it's probably a bit too much, I'd say go for an UP or Polo. If you need the space, then a Taigo is a great choice. Fuel efficiency on motorways has been around 5 litres per 100km (around 47 MPG). In the city, closer to 7 litres per 100km (33 mpg).

I don't know a lot about there in europe, but here in Brazil the Taigo Cousin (Nivus) was created to be a cheaper option than the T-Cross (wich has a longer wheelbase compared to the European one) and Tiguan (the T-Roc isn't sold here) in the Crossover lineup of VW, and it only have a 1.0 TSI engine, also, people here also complain for the lack of more ground clearance, is a shame you didn't like much the taigo, but seeing that is more expensive than a T-Roc in some versions and have wheelbase a the T-Cross and Polo here, It really doesn't make much sense except for having a different design, great video Marek, is aways a joy seeing your videos, keep doing your great work.

We currently have a TCross and the Taigo is about to be released in South Africa. The TCross is one of the best balanced VW's when it comes to price, fuel consumption and resale value. The Taigo is priced above the TCross and below the TRock in South Africa. I was looking at purchasing a Taigo in December but after seeing the space at the back for passengers, it will be a pass. Toyota sells a Corolla Cross in South Africa which is a much bigger car and cheaper than the Taigo. It is fitted with a normal aspirated 1.8 engine.

The price of T-Roc got much bigger. So it is not the same price. Similar configuration of T-Roc is at least 3000 eur more than Taigo. And both of them are very similar cars. T-roc is already established and very popular that is why they increased the price so much. (like VW Up where they increased price to insanity since everybody was still buying it). VW Taigo is not known yet so they have not increase it to that extent yet.

I guess Taigo is for people looking for a sporty/coupe like shape, younger people, young couples with small kids where limited rear leg room is not an issue. However for about the same money you get a TRoc which is updated with softer touch plastics, has more interior and trunk space, offers a multi-link rear suspension with the 1.5 lt engine, and is also quite sporty looking, so TRoc is in, Taigo is out, any way you look at it.

Just got one, seems perfect for me and my family. Good space in the back, at least given our family body types :-D (me, 1.81 cm height btw) We had a Golf VI and backspace is the same but with bigger boot space. Could it be it's a different version the one you tried? maybe a special polish one? Anyway, the Italian version seems a smart choice for young families. oh, and it's a few grands less than the t-roc and with a bigger boot.

I don't know what VW is doing. They have too many vehicles too close to each other. And their cars are getting more expensive AND worse every day (touch buttons on steering wheel, touch for the AC panel, power window switch situation on the ID cars, etc.). I understand that new car prices are going up, but 25k for a Polo with a 1.0 TSI is a terrible joke (just converted from HUF, not sure if it's actually 25k in Germany as well) I can buy an i20 N for less than a 1.0 TSI Polo. Why? How?

First i am not english native speaker so sry for any grammar errors. I have seen many reviews on taigo but your one is really bad one. I have seated and driven taigo for couple of thousands miles already so i feel i can compare with your review. 1. Leg room at rear seats is totally ok. I am 184cm and i can sit behind my driver position easy. I feel that it is one the pros of taigo actually (look at other taigo reviews…) 2. Noise in the cabin. Look at the tests done by other people and you will see it pretty quite car on highways. (Actually i hear noise comming from rear tyres but nothing from the roof. 3. Not good for driving in high speeds? Maybe you are driving som A class cars but i have been driving BMW before and taigo is pretty close to it in terms of driving in higer speeds. Again look at the other tests and the handling is one of the pros of taigo. 3 driving systems are not good? I guess you are comparing it with tesla… as taigo has latest IQ DRIVE from VW and it it works pretty good. I dont understand why you are providing viewers with such BS info. And btw i dont think Android car works wireless I was able to run it on cable only as on wireless you dont have data connection but maybe you have found out how to do it….

There is no objective truth. These are my opinions based on what is probably a broader range of vehicles I get to drive. And yes, having a car for a week rather than for a couple of months means I have to time get used to certain aspects, which in the longer run may not be as annoying to owners. There are no perfect cars, and buying a car means navigating between various parameters, and deciding what's important for you. That being said: 1. Taigo boot space is advertised as bigger than in the T-Cross, which is true only when the T-Cross rear bench is all the way back. In which case the T-Cross has much better legroom, than the Taigo (or larger boot with the same legroom). 2. I drive most test cars on the same roads in similar conditions. In the Mokka at 140 km/h I wasn't sure if the engine was running, and in the Taigo at 90 km/h I had to raise my voice, when talking with the passenger. 3. No, it's not designed for high-speed driving, and this is just an observation, not a disadvantage. If you need something for frequent long cruises Taigo should not be taken into consideration. I would not recommend any B-crossover for that kind of use (maybe except the Mokka, which was really quiet). 4. IQ Drive is a generic name for various driver assist features, which differ between VW models and segments. As this is a bottom of the range segment, this gets ACC and the most rudimentary lane keeping assist, which it has to to get a decent Euro NCAP score. But it won't say in the middle of the lane or follow the car in front. Android Auto was wireless on this car, but it may depend on the infotainment level or it's just an electronics glitch on your side.

I think you had style version of taigo. In style and rline you get latest IQ drive that means you get travel assist. It is not same as line assist. You should be using travel assist function. That function keeps car in the middle of lines. If you buy media discovery package with rod sign recognition you get dynamic ACC that means car will adjust speeds acording to road sign assist and according to optimal speed for curves according to gps data from the navi. Line assist is set by default to react very late (almost when car touches line) you can chnage this by obd eleven for example. But you should be using travel assist if you want to experience semi auto drive. This is one of the best function of taigo after IQ lights.

LOL and you don't care about the rear legroom... Always sharp!! I'm not sure I've heard anybody say that unless they are buying a 911. There's a dad at my youngest girl's school who drove his girls to school in his 911. Then they complained because they weren't comfortable with their head tilted over so he got an Audi S5 Sportback. Anyways, the T Roc and this don't come to NA so I would buy neither. And for some reason, NA gets a different HRV. We are fatter over here. With vW, the lineup starts with the Taos with the Tiguan being the larger Tiguan. I can see the appeal of these 2. The Taos is 26k to start topping off at 36k and the big Tiguan is 32k to 43k. I do see the appeal of the Atlas Cross sport with it's sportier, big macho beefy looks because it's got tons of room still and it's clearly a different size category.

It's not really same priced as T-Roc... It's cheaper. You need to check the price of the 1.0 TSI 110 version, which will be the most desirable... Cheaper than T-Roc. And now the VW range... The problem is not with the Taigo. The problem is T-Roc. Why? Well, T-Roc is a Golf based SUV and therefore should be much longer car than it is now. It should have at least 435 cm or even more. The new generation will solve this problem. The current generation is just too short.

this car, and cars like this are depressing. pretends to be an all terrain but it has zero off road capabilities, pretends to be a coupe but has no extra power or speed to go with it and pretends to be a spacious family car but has no space. how miserable, depressed and financially challenged do you need to be to buy this? Marek, sometimes I think the reason for so many cars in this segment at the VW line up is... Autoeuropa. they are always striking and complaining that sometimes I wonder if he is seeking aways to simply shut production if they need and that might be why they need back up models just in case the T-roc isn't available anymore

I think VW seem to lose the plot more and more with time. Starting with diesel gate. They churn out these bland characterless SUV's that seem to in some cases to overlap each others market segments. The dash designs are cheap and frustrating to use with awful campacitive controls. The Golf is a shadow of it's former self and then there's those fugly electric ID models. VW need to get a grip.....
