Well, not a whole lot has changed about the premium midsize VW SUV on the face of it, it still looks very familiar in shape and dimensions but there are subtle improvements to the exterior, some new bits in the interior and then a little more under the hood so, let’s get on with knowing what they are.
The Tiguan retains its original silhouette of being an understated yet classy looking SUV and in its latest update, it brings on some bling with the added chrome on the grille and sporting the new VW badge. The headlights not only get a redesigned shape but now feature matrix LEDs making them both intelligent and adaptive, changing to the varying ambient lighting conditions and offering you the best possible illumination. This is done by altering the geometry of the headlight beam instead of using more LED units and that’s a really cool feature. The sides remain largely unchanged with clean lines defining the shoulder line of the SUV while 18-inch alloys sport a new and attractive design. The rear of the SUV stands out with new LED tail lamps and a centred Tiguan badge.
