The new VW Tiguan turned up earlier this year, looking for all the world like a mini-me VW Touareg.
If you opt for the interior R-Line package you’ll get sports seats in the front – finished in R-Line specific pattern – black headliner, aluminium pedals, a sports steering wheel and R-Line logos.
The R-Line exterior package can be combined with any of these colors: Candy white, Reflex silver metallic, Deep Black pearl effect, Night blue metallic and Pepper grey metallic.
The interior treatment adds a pair of sport seats up front, unique upholstery, a sports steering wheel, black roofliner, aluminum pedals, and R-Line logos.
There is new seat trim and Volkswagen's new steering wheel style, but the already-classy Tiguan interior has otherwise remained the same as the outgoing models.
Four engines are on offer - three petrol engines and a turbo-diesel - and prices range from $28,490 to $42,990.
All the new Tiguan SUVs now come standard with daytime driving lights, six airbags (front, front side and curtain airbags), safety-optimised front head restraints ABS brakes, an auto-hold function, brake-assist and electronic brake-force distribution.
Cargo capacity ranges from 395 to 1510litres.
The new Tiguan’s petrol engines are the sensational twin-charged 118kW/240Nm 1.4litre TSI, a 132kW two-litre TSI and the top-spec 155kW two-litre TSI that boasts 280Nm of torque.
Initially the front-wheel-drive 1.4litre TSI is a six-speed-manual-only model but a DSG transmission will become available next year.
The rest of the pack – the 103TDI, 132TSI and the 155TSI – run Volkswagen’s 4MOTION all-wheel-drive system.
To enhance their fuel efficiency and exhaust cleanliness, both the front-wheel-drive 103TDI and the 118TSI versions use VW’s BlueMotion technology that includes a start/stop system and brake-energy recuperation.
