Overview

The 2026 Volkswagen Tayron 110TSI Life is a seven-seat petrol SUV with an automatic gearbox, sending its drive to the front wheels. It's priced at $48,290 RRP, which is the recommended retail price, before on-road costs. Fuel use is 7.6L/100km on the combined cycle, and you get 345 litres of boot with all seats up, growing to 1,905 litres with the rear seats folded. It's rated to tow 1,800kg braked. With all seven seats in use the boot is on the snug side, so it suits families who only fill the third row now and then.

P-plate vehicle rules, our reading

P-plate OK in all states and territories we cover. This reads the manufacturer's power and tare mass against each state's published rule.

Your state's own list overrides this reading: check it before you buy.

A rating belongs to the exact variant ANCAP tested and is never carried across to a grade or a build year it does not cover. A rating older than six years is marked expired because ANCAP’s own test has moved on.

The 2026 Volkswagen Tayron 150TSI Life is a compact AWD SUV designed for practical Australian families who want European engineering without premium pricing, offering genuine everyday capability with a 2500kg braked towing capacity and a spacious 885-litre boot. Its standout strength is the combination of fuel efficiency (7.7L/100km) and peace of mind through a 5-star ANCAP safety rating (tested 2025), all backed by Volkswagen's five-year warranty. The main consideration is that at 1828kg and powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine producing 150kW, it prioritises efficiency over performance, so it won't excite driving enthusiasts.
