Volkswagen Tacqua prices drop in Russia

The Volkswagen Tacqua compact crossover has appeared on the Russian market, available at a price of 1,850,000 rubles — cheaper than some Lada models. For comparison, the top-end Lada Vesta Techno with a CVT costs from 1,960,000 rubles, and the Vesta SW Cross in a similar configuration costs from 2,197,000 rubles.

The Tacqua in the initial R-Smart configuration already offers a multi-steering wheel, a digital instrument panel, multimedia with a large touch screen, a panoramic roof with a sunroof, air conditioning, keyless entry and additional air ducts for rear passengers.

Prices vary in different regions: in Vladivostok — from 1.937 million rubles (or from 2.15 million when buying from stock), in Krasnodar for the same amount you can take the maximum version with a leather interior, cameras and parking sensors, and in Naberezhnye Chelny the crossover is sold for 2.35–2.46 million rubles. The most expensive offer is from a dealer from Volgograd, where Tacqua is estimated at 2.64 million rubles.

Most cars are equipped with a 1.2-liter turbo engine (116 hp) and a 7-speed DSG, but there are versions with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine (113 hp) and a 6-speed "automatic".

The dimensions of the model are 4108×1760×1589 mm, the wheelbase is 2551 mm, the trunk is 367 liters, or up to 1192 liters with the seats folded down. Tacqua is more compact than the Volkswagen Taos and Skoda Karoq familiar to Russians.
