The New Tiguan Will Start at $25,345

Volkswagen of America has announced pricing details for its new Tiguan. Starting at $25,345 for the base S model and rising up to $37,550 for the SEL Premium.

The new Tiguan is nearly 11 inches longer than the last generation Tiguan, with up to 56% more cargo space. Available with up to three rows, the new Tiguan also comes with more seating than its predecessor.

Volkswagen has also announced that the new Tiguan will be offered with a six year/72,000 mile transferable warranty, just like on the Atlas, which the automaker is calling the best in the industry.

Four trim levels are available: S, SE, SEL, and SEL Premium.

The Tiguan S is the most basic, model with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder TSI engine making 184 horsepower and 221 lb-ft of torque. As with all FWD models, three rows of seating are standard. On the Tiguan S with 4Motion AWD (starting at $26,645), though, the third row is a $500 option. It comes with 17-inch alloys, LED daytime running lights, a rearview camera, and more.

SE trim, meanwhile, starts at $29,080 and comes standard with an 8-inch infotainment screen, Voice Control, two additional USB ports, and more. The SE with 4Motion starts at $30,380.

With the SEL trim package the Tiguan starts at $32,550 ($33,850 for 4Motion). For that price, you get more driver assistance technologies, including Adaptive Cruise Control that’s been improved for use in stop-and-go traffic.

Finally, the SEL Premium trim, starting at $36,250, comes with 19-inch rims, Adaptive Front-lighting System, rain-sensing wipers, a heated steering wheel, High Beam Control, Park Distance Control, Overhead View Camera, and a whole lot more.

Along with the trim levels, come optional packages. Driver assistance, for instance, an $850 option, comes with Forward Collision Warning, Autonomous Emergency Breaking, Pedestrian Monitoring, and Blind Spot Monitoring.

A Panoramic Sunroof is available for $1,200 on the SE trim, while R-Line makes the Tiguan look a little more aggressive for $1,495.

The Tiguan will hit showrooms this summer.

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.

Macau Gets Messy with 16-Car Pileup

The Macau Grand Prix is always good for an accident or two or 16— you may remember Audi’s race ending crash last year —and this year’s event didn’t disappoint. It didn’t take long for things to get messy on the tight road circuit. On the opening lap of the qualifying race a 16-car pileup caused the race to be suspended. Things kicked off when Daniel Juncadella hit a wall on the exit of Police bend, one of the tightest parts of the already tight circuit. The following car of Raffaele Marciello was able to avoid the carnage, but Laurens Vanthoor, who was in the upside-down Audi that ended the race last year, could not avoid Juncadella and together they blocked up the road pretty much completely. “I couldn’t see him [Juncadella] at first. Then I saw the car standing still,” Vanthoor told Motorsport. “I tried to brake but it was just understeering and I couldn’t do anything. There’s room for one car there and you’re blind.” Fourteen more cars would eventually crash into the corner c

The First of its Kind: Integrated Engineering Releases Highly-Anticipated IE450T MK6 Golf R Turbo Kit

After two long years of development, the team at Integrated Engineering has finally announced the release of their IE450T kit for the MK6 Golf R. With their turbo kit bolted on right out of the box, the sport AWD hatch is transformed into a 450bhp monster, with hardly any noticeable increase in spool time. In fact, 435 ft-lbs of torque are achieved at all four wheels, at a mere 3300rpm! By now you are probably asking yourself how this is even possible on a 2.0L engine that made nearly half that power from the factory. By employing true twin-scroll technology into the cast turbo manifold and pairing it with a state-of-the-art BorgWarner EFR turbocharger, IE was able to keep spool time at a minimum and bring the fastest-spooling big turbo setup to the market. “We wanted to offer a kit that would dramatically increase the power output without making the car lose its amazing street-friendly drivability,” mentioned one of the IE engineers. We are told the IE450T leaves the car driving jus
