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.

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier. The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow. While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something . To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it. Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait. So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers. The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience. So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf. In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...

Volkswagen Group Records Best Ever First-Half-of-Year Sales

With 5.5 million vehicles in customer hands after the first six months of 2018, the Volkswagen Group is seeing the best performance of its history. Group deliveries increased significantly in all core regions,” said Fred Kappler, head of sales for the Group. “Our core brands recorded strong growth in the first half year.” For the year-to-date, all of Volkswagen’s brands had sales bumps. MAN, SEAT, and Skoda led the sales charge with performances 24%, 17% and 11% better than the previous year. The big sellers, too, had strong sales periods, with Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Audi, and Volkswagen sales rising 3.5%, 4.5% and 6.3% respectively. That last figure is particularly good new for the board, since Volkswagen alone sold more than 3 million vehicles in the first half of 2018. As Kappler stated, the numbers are equally good when you break sales down by region. Brazil and Russia were the most improved markets (22% and 20%, respectively), while strong sales in Europe and China (u...
