2021 Volkswagen Tiguan teaser image released
KUALA LUMPUR: Volkswagen Tiguan is one of the best-selling vehicles in its segment globally. For that matter, the firm is planning a facelift version for the 2021 model year. It will have styling changes and additional features to keep it in line with the latest models. The spy shots of the new Tiguan have already been revealed on the Internet, and now an official teaser image exhibiting the new front fascia is released by the company.
2021 Volkswagen Tiguan features a more aggressive design language. For styling, it gets compact radiator grille, new brand logo, LED Matrix headlamps, a redesigned bumper, and triangular side air vents at the front.
Inside the cabin, the new Tiguan is set to receive a new MIB3 infotainment system, as well as a new steering wheel similar to the new Atlas Sport Cross and some material upgrades. Moreover, the Travel Assist safety system and over-the-air software will also be updated. In the case of seating configurations, the facelifted version continues with both five and seven-passenger layouts.
As per the firm’s official person, facelifted Tiguan will focus on sporty, on-road–oriented styling, especially when equipped with the R-Line appearance package. And possibly the entry-level trim would be offered with some all-terrain–inspired styling and accessories as well.
Under the hood, the firm is still investigating the powerful options, but it seems that it will stick with the existing one for the time being. In the US, the ongoing version is powered with 2.0-litre turbocharged inline-four making 184 PS, mated to an eight-speed automatic gearbox. While in Malaysia, it features a 1.4-litre TSI engine producing 150 PS of power. Also, the 4Motion all-wheel-drive will be continuing as an option for the buyers.
The facelifted Tiguan is set for the official debut this summer and expected to hit the US showrooms by the end of this year. Though, the arrival in the Malaysian market is not yet clear.
