2018 Volkswagen Tiguan: Performance Combined with Versatility

The 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan makes a comeback after being completely redesigned earlier this year. It will be introduced to North America this summer. With a host of improvements in the safety and connectivity departments, more interior space than the outgoing model, and a more efficient engine, the brand new 2018 VW Tiguan is poised to impress. And with a starting price of less than $30,000, the new Tiguan is more affordable than you think.

An Efficient Turbocharged Engine for the Brand New 2018 VW Tiguan

The 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan offers better fuel economy numbers than the outgoing model, but it also offers more power. To say that this is definitely the best of both worlds would be a grave understatement.

Powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine that delivers 184 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque, the new 2018 Tiguan has more power than most of its competitors. Due to its turbocharged technology, this engine is also one of the most fuel-efficient in its segment.

An average fuel consumption rating of less than 9.0 litres per 100 kilometres is not only possible, it is to be expected.

An Extended Wheelbase that Adds a Lot of Interior Space to the New 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan

The new 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan available in Canada is built on an extended wheelbase that translates into 60% more interior volume compared to the previous-generation model. That’s a welcome improvement, as some considered the previous model not roomy enough.

With more than 1,000 litres of cargo space with all seats in place, and more than 2,000 litres with the rear seats folded, the new 2018 Tiguan is now one of the most spacious vehicles in its segment. It is also one of the few compact SUVs to offer a third row of seats.
