Overview

  • Volkswagen India has introduced a limited-edition Flash Red exterior exclusively on the 1.0-litre TSI GT Line variants of its Taigun SUV and Virtus sedan.
  • The new paint is complemented by blacked-out roof, pillars, mirrors, alloy wheels and door handles for a sportier appearance.
  • Mechanical elements remain untouched, retaining the 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine with 115 PS and 178 Nm paired to either a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission.
  • The higher-powered 1.5-litre TSI trims continue with existing colours, making Flash Red a niche option for the entry-level GT Line.
  • A facelifted Taigun prototype has been spotted undergoing tests, pointing to a broader mid-cycle refresh expected in 2026.
