Useful technology,
clearly explained.
The column-mounted shifter frees up the center console. The physical Driver Experience Dial controls volume and drive-mode selection; SE and higher trims also add Atmospheres to coordinate lighting and audio settings.
A little more sky.
The panoramic sunroof is optional on SE and standard on both R-Line trims. SE R-Line Black and SEL R-Line Turbo also include a head-up display that places selected driving information in your line of sight.
The SEL finishing touches.
SEL R-Line Turbo adds illuminated front and rear VW emblems, a 15-inch touchscreen, 30-color ambient lighting and 12-speaker Harman Kardon audio. Area View provides an overhead camera view, while Park Assist Plus can assist with parking maneuvers.
Turbocharged.
Your choice of power.
S, SE and SE R-Line Black deliver 201 horsepower. SEL R-Line Turbo turns it up to 268 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, with standard 4MOTION all-wheel drive.
Every Tiguan uses an eight-speed automatic, and Volkswagen recommends regular unleaded gasoline. With the 201-hp engine, torque is 207 lb-ft in FWD models and 221 lb-ft with 4MOTION.
What does 4MOTION do?
The system can send power to the rear wheels when added traction is needed. S, SE and SE R-Line Black offer it as an option; SEL R-Line Turbo includes it. All-wheel drive does not replace appropriate tires or careful driving in snow and ice.
Planning to tow?
VW lists up to 1,500 pounds for FWD and 1,800 pounds for 4MOTION models, when properly equipped. All trims list hitch preparation; that is not an installed hitch. We’ll help check the required hitch, trailer-brake equipment and load limits for your trailer.
