New Tiguan now in German Volkswagen dealerships

  • Space and premium class technology set new standards in the SUV compact class
  • Striking design underlines the powerful and authentic character

The new Tiguan will be in Volkswagen dealership showrooms from this weekend. The latest version of the successful compact SUV impresses with a new design, great comfort, first-class handling and all-round connectivity. Prices for the new Tiguan start from €25,975.

The new Tiguan is the first SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle) based on the Modular Transverse Matrix (MQB). Equipped with numerous driver assistance and safety systems, it simultaneously offers an outstanding amount of space and variable possibilities for use.

With the new 4MOTION Active Control, the SUV guarantees supreme traction and huge driving fun – in all situations and on all surfaces. Using this, drivers tailor the vehicle to their individual needs. Especially in combination with the optionally available dynamic chassis control (DCC) and progressive steering, it facilitates both excellent handling and great comfort. In terms of safety too, Volkswagen is using strictly premium technology: the safety package includes Front Assist with City Emergency Braking function and Pedestrian Monitoring, Lane Assist, proactive occupant protection and an active front bonnet for the protection of pedestrians and cyclists.

The optional package of Media Control app and App Connect ensure optimum connectively with smartphone or tablet – all occupants are thus always online. An inductive charging function for smartphones rounds of the package of convenient features.

Ground clearance of 20 centimetres on the all-wheel drive versions and the optional off-road front with 25-degree slope clearance make the multi-talented vehicle a serene companion on rugged terrain as well. In Europe the Tiguan therefore officially has type approval as an off-road vehicle, which is also able to tow trailers weighing up to 2.5 tonnes. Among compact SUVs it is therefore best in class in terms of towing load.

The new Tiguan won numerous awards as soon as it was unveiled: back in November 2015 the new SUV was already picking up its first award the 'Auto Trophy 2015', voted for by readers of trade journal 'Auto Zeitung' in an international poll. In addition to the title 'All-wheel Car of the Year 2016' (in the off-road vehicle and SUV category up to €30,000) awarded by trade journal 'Auto Bild allrad', the compact SUV also won the 'Plus X Award' innovation prize for 'High Quality, Design, Ease of Use and Functionality'. Furthermore the international iF jury honoured the new Tiguan's design with the 'iF Design Award 2016', regarded as one of the world's most important design prizes.

The specified fuel consumption and emission data have been determined according to the measurement procedures prescribed by law. Since 1st September 2017, certain new vehicles are already being type-approved according to the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP), a more realistic test procedure for measuring fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Starting on September 1st 2018, the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) will be replaced by the WLTP in stages. Owing to the more realistic test conditions, the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions measured according to the WLTP will, in many cases, be higher than those measured according to the NEDC. For further information on the differences between the WLTP and NEDC, please visit www.volkswagen.de/wltp.

We are currently still required by law to state the NEDC figures. In the case of new vehicles which have been type-approved according to the WLTP, the NEDC figures are derived from the WLTP data. It is possible to specify the WLTP figures voluntarily in addition until such time as this is required by law. In cases where the NEDC figures are specified as value ranges, these do not refer to a particular individual vehicle and do not constitute part of the sales offering. They are intended exclusively as a means of comparison between different vehicle types. Additional equipment and accessories (e.g. add-on parts, different tyre formats, etc.) may change the relevant vehicle parameters, such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics, and, in conjunction with weather and traffic conditions and individual driving style, may affect fuel consumption, electrical power consumption, CO2 emissions and the performance figures for the vehicle.

Further information on official fuel consumption figures and the official specific CO2 emissions of new passenger cars can be found in the “Guide on the fuel economy, CO2 emissions and power consumption of new passenger car models”, which is available free of charge at all sales dealerships and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, D-73760 Ostfildern, Germany and at www.dat.de.
