Volkswagen Tiguan 2025

• With the new generation, the Tiguan has grown larger in size. For India, Volkswagen is offering the SUV in its sportiest ‘R-Line’ variant.

• Compared to the standard version, you get sportier bumpers both at the front and rear.

• Up front, the visual highlight is the connected lighting element on the grille and the large airdam with cross-hatch detailing. 

• Large 19-inch dual-tone alloy wheels stand out in profile. 

• There are plenty of ‘R’ badges throughout the vehicle, to remind you that you’ve bought a special version. 

• Tiguan R-Line 2025 colour options include: Oryx White Mother Of Pearl Effect, Oyster Silver Metallic, Persimmon Red Metallic, Cipressiono Green Metallic, Nightshade Blue Metallic, and Grenadilla Black Metallic.

• The cabin sports a completely new design, but continues to balance functionality and luxury.

• It’s finished in an all-black theme and features soft-touch materials for the dashboard and doorpads. 

• Volkswagen has peppered a lot of ‘R’ badges throughout the cabin and also added gloss black panels on the door pads and dashboard with backlighting.

• Interestingly, Volkswagen has moved the gear selector to the steering column, opening up storage space in the centre console. 

• Rear seat space was always a strong suite with the Tiguan. We expect the new model to be no different in this regard.
