Pricing details for the 2025 Tiguan
Volkswagen has officially announced that the 2025 Tiguan will retail for $30,920, which includes a destination fee of $1,425. This represents a price increase of $615 compared to the current model. With its arrival expected this summer, automotive enthusiasts are eager to see how the new version compares to its predecessor.
A fresh look at the new Tiguan
The 2025 Tiguan made its debut at the 2024 Los Angeles Auto Show, showcasing a lighter and more powerful design. This latest iteration boasts a cabin that exudes a more upscale atmosphere, with significant upgrades in both technology and materials.
Engine performance and specifications
The U.S. version of the Tiguan will feature a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, producing 201 horsepower—an increase of 17 horsepower from the outgoing model. This engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, and while front-wheel drive is standard, an all-wheel-drive option is also available. The towing capacity stands at 1,500 pounds for the FWD variant and 1,800 pounds when equipped with AWD.
Weight reduction and efficiency
One of the standout features of the 2025 Tiguan is its reduced weight, approximately 170 pounds lighter than its predecessor. This is achieved through the use of aluminum in suspension components and high-strength steel in the vehicle’s body. Volkswagen claims that this weight reduction enhances both fuel efficiency and acceleration, although specific performance statistics will be released closer to the launch date.
Interior enhancements and technology
Moving inside, the new Tiguan promises a significant leap in design and technology. Depending on the trim level, buyers can expect luxurious touches such as American walnut wood accents, quilted leather seating, and heated and cooled seats with a massage function. A standard 10.3-inch digital gauge cluster complements the infotainment system, which has been upgraded to a standard 12.9 inches and can be enhanced to 15.0 inches. A head-up display is also an option, adding to the vehicle’s tech-savvy profile.
Intuitive controls and ambiance features
Volkswagen has thoughtfully retained some physical controls on the dashboard and center console, including a prominent rotary dial for volume control that also manages drive modes and customizable mood settings, referred to as Atmospheres. These settings allow drivers to adjust ambient lighting and sound within the cabin, creating a personalized driving experience.
Production and availability
Production of the 2025 Tiguan will take place at Volkswagen’s facility in Mexico. As the launch date approaches, more information regarding performance metrics and additional features is anticipated. The automotive community is watching closely to see how the updated Tiguan will compete in a crowded market.
