New-Generation Volkswagen Tiguan Set to Make Waves in Australia
Are you ready to experience the power and luxury of the new Tiguan?
Get ready, Australia! The new-generation Volkswagen Tiguan is on its way, and it’s bringing some exciting upgrades. Leading the local range will be a GTI-powered R-Line, making its debut in the first quarter of next year. But that’s not all. Read on to discover what else this highly anticipated model has in store for Australian drivers.
The new 195kW 2.0 TSI engine of the Tiguan will match the power of the facelifted Golf GTI and Skoda Octavia RS. This means a significant improvement in the car’s acceleration, specifically the claimed 0-100km/h time. The current Tiguan 162TSI takes a claimed 7.0 seconds, but the new model is expected to beat that.
It’s not just the engine that’s getting an upgrade. Volkswagen is also finalizing replacements for the current powertrain options. While it’s unclear if Australia will see the newer 1.5 eTSI mild-hybrid and 2.0 TSI engines confirmed for the European market, there will be an entry-level powertrain available at launch. This will be followed by a mid-spec option in the future.
Volkswagen is pushing the boundaries of technology with the new Tiguan. The model will feature IQ.Light HD Matrix LED headlights, which use multipixel LEDs to provide superior illumination. The infotainment system is getting an overhaul as well, with new displays measuring up to 15 inches. Drivers can also look forward to new adaptive damping and ergoActive Plus seats with adjustable lumbar support and a pressure massage function.
As exciting as these upgrades are, there are still some details to be revealed. VW Australia will share more information about the Australian lineup closer to launch. So, stay tuned for the latest updates.
