After selling over 2.64 million units of the first generation, Volkswagen will release the all-wheel drive New Tiguan this year.
The Tiguan is the first Volkswagen Group SUV to be based on the MQB (modular transverse matrix) platform, meaning all of the properties of the Tiguan including body proportions, design and weight will be improved compared to the outgoing car, the latter going down 50kg thanks to the use of high-strength steel.
