The new Volkswagen Tiguan is now here in Australia.
The new Tiguan features an array of enhanced styling as is evident across the entire Volkswagen range. Drawing
from Volkswagen’s specialised design 'DNA', the new Tiguan features dominate horizontal lines on the front
grille. At the rear, new two-part light clusters give the Tiguan its distinct appearance. And similar to those of
the Touareg, they form an ‘L’ shape, while the lower border of the lights also follows a horizontal geometry.
Four engines are available across the Tiguan range; three petrol engines and one diesel engine.
Petrol engines include a twincharged 1.4 litre TSI with 118 kW, a 2.0 litre TSI with 132 kW and a 2.0 litre
TSI with 155 kW.
The The 2.0 litre TDI engine provides 103 kW of power and achieves - for an SUV - the low combined fuel
consumption figure of just 6.0 litres per 100 km for the manual variant.
The Tiguan’s 1.4 litre TSI engine, powered by 118 kW will be available in two-wheel drive, attracting
customers who are looking for a stylish yet economical city SUV in an affordable package. For customers wanting
the added versatility and the option to venture off the beaten track, the rest of the range (103TDI, 132TSI,
155TSI) feature Volkswagen’s innovative 4MOTION all-wheel drive as standard.
The Tiguan 118TSI is matched with a 6-speed manual transmission, whilst the 103TDI can be equipped with either
a 6-speed manual or 7-speed DSG transmission. The Tiguan 132TSI is paired with either a 6-speed manual or 7-speed
DSG transmissions, while the 155TSI Tiguan is available with a 7-speed DSG transmission only.
Both the 103TDI and the 118TSI with two-wheel drive incorporates BlueMotion Technology making them both
incredibly environmentally friendly and economical. BlueMotion Technologies includes Volkswagen’s Start/Stop
system, Brake Energy Recuperation and the revolutionary Coasting Function (on 103TDI DSG only) offering even
further fuel saving technology and thus, lowing emissions.
The new Volkswagen Tiguan provides high passenger safety with daytime driving lights, six airbags (front,
front side and curtain airbags), and safety optimised front head restraints as standard. The new Tiguan also
features Volkswagen’s advance technologies including Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Auto Hold function, Brake
Assist and Electronic Brake-pressure Distribution (EBD). Safe driving in the Tiguan is also accounted for with
features such as Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR), Electronic Differential Lock (EDL), Electronic Stabilisation
Programme (ESP) and Engine Braking Control (EBC) as standard.
All Tiguan models (expect for the 155TSI) come standard with 16-inch alloy wheels and air conditioning, AM/FM
security coded radio (RCD310) with MP3 compatible CD player, Bluetooth® phone connectivity as well as Media
Device Interface (MDI) which is fitted in the centre console and supplied with USB connection cable.
The Tiguan 155TSI adds sporty 17-inch alloys, dual zone automatic climate control, RCD510 touchscreen audio
system with MP3, auto rain sensing wipers and rear parking distance sensors with OPS (Optical Parking Sensors) as
standard. This model also gains stylish chrome highlights such chrome plated roof rails, chrome window surrounds,
tinted glass from the B-pillar back, sport seats, front fog lights and sports suspension among other items.
