The first versions of the dynamic new Tiguan SUV are now open for order at Volkswagen UK Retailers nationwide.
By virtue of its cutting edge MQB underpinnings the new Tiguan aims to debut exceptional levels of safety and connectivity.
Standard from entry will be a raft of valuable safety features such as Front Assist; City Emergency Braking and Pedestrian Monitoring, while hi-tech features available for the first time in a Tiguan include Active Info Display; Head-Up Display; Area View and Trailer Assist.
In the UK the car will over time be offered with up to three new petrol engines, with power outputs from 123bhp to 178bhp, and four new diesel engines ranging from 113bhp to 237bhp.
All EU6-compliant, they are more powerful and more fuel-efficient than the comparable EU5 engines of the previous model. The diesel engines feature SCR catalytic converter technology, using the now familiar AdBlue additive.
The new Volkswagen Tiguan range is expected to be priced from around £22,500 when all versions are available, and deliveries of the first customer cars are expected this summer.
