Review: Volkswagen Tiguan

Based on the same platform as the latest Golf, the next Tiguan will be available in two different sizes - a regular & long-wheelbase. The new Tiguan is wider, longer and longer wheelbase than the old Tiguan. The new model delivers more overall cargo space.

 

Its wheelbase is 110 mm longer than the regular version and it can be available in seven-seater.

 

The next Tiguan will be available with eight different engines, four diesel, and four gasoline. The turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder gas engine with improved power and fuel consumption,180 horsepower (the new version has 200).The new Tiguan 16 kilograms lighter then old Tiguan.

 

 

 

 

A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and paddle shifters. The steering is too light to the touch, but the response is precise enough.

 

Along with this, from the powertrain improvements and another aspect of that is the most different Active Control System. From a mechanical point of view, the focal point is the fifth-generation Haldex AWD system, features on the electro-hydraulic clutch that couples and uncouples the rear axle. Under normal conditions, the functions as a front-wheel-drive vehicle, when conditions become more challenging, the predictive system redirects, theoretically, up to 100 percent of the torque to the rear wheels.

 

The Active Control System allows for the choice of four different modes (normal, snow, off-road and individual), similar to the Land Rovers.

 

The 2018 Tiguan was bigger, tougher and more capable than ever.
