Volkswagen Tiguan Specs, Engines & Dimensions

Volkswagen Tiguan Engines and Transmissions

Every Volkswagen Tiguan engine in this generation is turbocharged and paired with a DSG robotic dual-clutch gearbox, which shifts by itself but responds more directly than a traditional torque-converter automatic. The 2.0 DSG gasoline versions are offered with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, the latter useful on wet roads and light gravel. The 1.5 DSG plug-in hybrid drives the front wheels and adds electric assistance for quiet town running.

Volkswagen Tiguan Trims and Equipment

Volkswagen Tiguan trim levels mainly change the cabin, styling and convenience content rather than the mechanical package underneath. On the 1.5 DSG gasoline front-wheel-drive version you can choose between Life and R-Line: Life covers the comfort-focused everyday specification, while R-Line leans toward sportier exterior and interior detailing. Always read the equipment list of the individual car, because content varies by market and production year.

Volkswagen Tiguan Battery

Only the hybrid carries a traction battery. Volkswagen Tiguan battery capacity on the 1.5 DSG plug-in hybrid front-wheel-drive version comes from a lithium-ion pack, which stores energy from a wall socket and from braking, then lets the SUV cover shorter trips on electricity alone. The gasoline versions have no such pack, so their running costs depend entirely on the combustion engine and how you drive.
