Volkswagen India has launched its new flagship SUV, the Tayron R-Line, at an introductory ex-showroom price of ₹46.99 lakh. 

The SUV is locally assembled at the company's plant in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra, helping keep costs competitive.

Gloss-black accents, a sporty bumper and 19-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels complete the bold look.
