What news shows the Volkswagen Tharu?
Anticipated by Autocosmos with spy photos, the renewal of the VW Tharu, The first thing that stands out is the front where there are larger headlights that come out towards the fascia and towards the sides. The LED bar that runs across the grille now runs through the entire headlight.

The latest news for China is in the engine that goes from 1.4 turbo with 150 Hp, to the new 1.5 TSI that delivers 160 horsepower. Let’s remember that the Taos made in Mexico already has that engine.

We suspect that for our market, a mid-life renewal should come around 2025. and could take various items of view in china.
