Typical Tiguan, typical Volkswagen and yet completely new is the striking design with a higher and powerful front section. Integrated here: the standard LED headlights. In between, a glass-covered crossbar with an optionally integrated LED strip replaces the classic radiator grille. The Tiguan is optionally available with the new “IQ.LIGHT – HD matrix headlights” 05 ; The high-tech lighting system with 38,400 multi-pixel LEDs was derived from the Touareg. The cleanly designed front section underlines that the drag coefficient has improved from 0.33 to 0.28. Athletic shoulders above the wheel arches characterize the silhouette. The wheels are up to 20 inches tall. An LED crossbar between the taillights emphasizes the width of the new Tiguan rear section.

The new Tiguan will be available with eight different mild hybrid (eTSI), plug-in hybrid (eHybrid), turbo petrol (TSI) and turbo diesel (TDI) powertrains. Two new 48V mild hybrid drives can be ordered directly; the eTSI deliver 96 kW (130 hp) 01 and 110 kW (150 hp) 02 and have automatic cylinder deactivation (ACT). Both Tiguan eTSI combine their high efficiency with excellent starting performance. The new Tiguan with a 110 kW (150 hp) 03 TDI can also be directly configured. The other drive versions will start in 2024. These include the newly developed plug-in hybrid drives 04 of the Tiguan with a purely electric range of around 100 km. Thanks to the long electric range and a new DC fast charging function with up to 50 kW, the SUV as an eHybrid becomes an electric car in everyday life. All Tiguans are equipped with an automatic dual clutch transmission (DSG) as standard.
