The compact, reliable and maneuverable Volkswagen Tiguan crossover has been produced by the German auto industry relatively recently (since 2007). It is worth noting that this model has become the most successful in almost the entire history of the concern. In confirmation of this, we can say that the novelty for 5 years of production on the conveyor did not leave the first places in the sales ratings. But even the most successful models need restyling sooner or later. Therefore, in 2012, the company presented a new generation of the updated Volkswagen Tiguan. The specifications and design of this car have changed a bit, which means we have a lot to talk about. So, as part of our review, we will consider all the features of the new generation of the legendary German crossovers.
Design
Outwardly, the new Tiguan does not differ much from its predecessor, in designnew items, only two main trends can be traced - to make the car more practical (especially in the off-road version), and at the same time emphasize the unified corporate style of the company. By the way, Volkswagen Tiguan is currently available in several body modifications, each of which is good in its own way. So, for example, the Track&Field version has massive sills and bumpers, indicating that the car belongs to the off-road class. Well, the Sport & Style version, on the contrary, has acquired sporty features, thanks to which the car looks more like a “passenger car”. In other details, the restyled jeep has much in common with its older brother called the Volkswagen Tuareg (as a result of which some motorists sometimes confuse them).
Interior
Despite the fact that the novelty is presented in four variations of interior design (and this is a lot), the interior of the updated SUV is still minimalist and simple. But still it is worth noting the positive aspects, which, by the way, are more than enough. Firstly, the model in question is equipped with a new multifunctional steering wheel, secondly, the dashboard now has a less poisonous green backlight, and thirdly, seats occupy a special place in the interior, which have acquired a more ergonomic shape and a lot of adjustments.
Volkswagen Tiguan: specifications
It is worth noting that the buyer of the German manufacturer has prepared a pleasant surprise, which is a wide variety of engines. They are now6 (four petrol and 2 diesel). As for the first type of engines, here the buyer can choose units with a capacity of 122 to 210 horsepower and a displacement of 1.4 to 2.0 liters. Diesel versions have power from 110 to 170 hp. with., and their working volume is exactly two liters. By the way, the engineers developed all the engines anew. Also, a new transmission for the Volkswagen Tiguan was developed from scratch, the characteristics of which include automatic switching of seven gears.
Volkswagen Tiguan fuel consumption specifications
The novelty spends about 10-11 liters per 100 kilometers in the combined cycle. For such large and powerful motors, this is quite a normal indicator, although savings would not hurt here.
However, you can not particularly talk about the merits of such a car as the Volkswagen Tiguan: the technical characteristics of the "German" speak for themselves!
