- New Volkswagen Tayron coming October 10
- Seven-seat SUV spotted testing
- Will replace the Tiguan Allspace
- Expected to share the new Tiguan’s styling
- Interior also likely to be similar to that car’s
The new Volkswagen Tayron will be revealed on October 10, according to a new Instagram post from VW’s head of design Andreas Mindt. It’s a seven-seat SUV to replace the aging Tiguan Allspace, and it’ll provide an alternative to the Hyundai Santa Fe and Skoda Kodiaq.
There are no details around what’s powering this new car just yet, or what technology it’ll be packing, but it wouldn’t be a reach to assume that it’ll be similar to the new Tiguan under the skin. The teaser video does hint at some styling changes over that car though.
New Volkswagen Tayron price and release date
An Instagram post from Volkswagen’s head of design Andres Mindt confirms that the new Tayron will be revealed on October 10, but don’t expect this SUV to hit UK streets until early 2025.

As for price, it’s a bit too soon to put a number on it for now, but expect it to fetch a premium over the Tiguan. A figure of around £40,000 seems like a safe bet.
New Volkswagen Tayron design
It’s been a few months now since Carwow’s spy photographers first spotted the Volkswagen Tayron, and Mindt’s teaser video gives you an idea of what’s lurking under the wrap.
The video only really shows the rear end, but you can already tell that it’ll have a similar full-width LED light bar to the Tiguan. This comes as no surprise when you consider the two cars will be pretty much identical under the skin.
The side profile is where you see the main difference, because the Tayron is noticeably longer than the Tiguan to make space for an extra row of seats in the rear. The front end may be wearing a clever mask to make it look like the old Tiguan, but it’s likely to look identical to the new model when the wrap comes off.
New Volkswagen Tayron interior
There are no images of the new Volkswagen Tayron’s interior just yet, but you can look at the Tiguan to get an idea of what it’ll look like. Expect to see the same 12.0-inch infotainment screen, as well as a similar dashboard layout.
What will set the Tayron apart will be the addition of an extra couple of seats, because this car will replace today’s Tiguan Allspace. This also means it’ll have a larger boot than the Tiguan’s with the third row folded, getting closer to the capacity of a Skoda Kodiaq.
