For the first time the described car was released in 2007. Even then, with the first version, Tiguan began to update sales records. More than 2.5 million first-generation vehicles have been sold worldwide. Despite this, the second version was shown to the world in 2015 in Frankfurt. True, then only the concept of a hybrid car was shown. Its appearance is planned in the future. And now sales of an ordinary updated car start. The second version of the Volkswagen Tiguan 2018 has improved technical characteristics compared to its predecessor. And this means even greater attractiveness of the car, because it will only get better. Otherwise, the Germans have nothing.
Tiguan size differences in a new body
Thanks to the use of the MQB platform, the engineers managed to slightly increase the interior space. As written above, even a 7-seat version is expected. However, on paper, the changes look insignificant. The characteristics of the Tiguan 2017-2018 in terms of body size were as follows:
- the length has increased by 6 cm, the current figure is 4486 cm;
- width increased by 3 cm, now - 1839 cm;
- the wheelbase has increased by 7 cm, now - 2681 cm;
- height decreased by 3.3 cm, now - 1632 cm.
For your information! Now the clearance of the Tiguan is 20 cm, which gives the Tiguan more off-road qualities.
The characteristics of the Tiguan 2017-2018 indicate the trunk volume of 615 liters. If you fold the rear row of seats, the volume increases to 1655 liters. the front passenger backrest also folds down, allowing you to cram into the new version german car long thing.
The peculiarity of the Tiguan lies in its platform. New car put on MQB platform on which golfs and trade winds are placed. In addition to unifying production and reducing the cost of the final product, this solution has the following advantages:
- The possibility of increasing the length of the structure to start the production of the 7-seater TiguanXL.
- Possibility of mounting a hybrid power plant for the Tiguan GTE.
- General decline Tiguan's weight compared to the previous model is 50 kg.
Options have not changed:
- "Trend&Fun", "Sport&Style" - designed for use on hard surfaces.
- "Track&Field", "Track&Style" - they can be used off-road. They are preferred for our roads. Completed with a special off-road package.

- mechanical in 6 steps;
- two robotic preselective DSG boxes 6 or 7 steps.
It is worth noting that the 7-speed robot went through a series of childhood illnesses during the period of operation on the first version. This caused a considerable amount of negativity from motorists. However, now it is a dry and obedient box, which regularly performs its functions with German clarity. The dynamics are non-explosive, but the box works softly.
For your information! You can control the box robot using the paddles under the steering wheel.
There are no complaints about the chassis either - this is typical car Volkswagen. There is no buildup in motion, however, when driving through bumps, the suspension gently works them out. Her virtues:
- smoothness;
- quiet work;
- the possibility of adaptation by changing the stiffness of the shock absorbers.
Note! The dynamic chassis control system allows you to greatly change the behavior of the car on the road.

Owner reviews
In a car for 1.5 million, the button to open the 5th door completely froze (this is at -2 degrees), and condensation formed in the rear lights. In this case, fogging of both lamps is not warranty case(for removing and installing the lights and drying them on the battery for 5 hours, the officials billed 1,800 rubles). This is German quality...
Gasoline consumption of the new Tiguan (automatic, 2.0 l) in winter, when driving vegetables, did not fall below 16.5 l / 100 km. And this is after competent running-in(no more than 2,000 rpm for 1,500 km).
Liked: handling, comfort, dynamics, Shumka.
Did not like: fuel consumption, no USB input on the head unit.

Video review
Here they write about the steering wheel, usb, etc. - this is all nonsense. The main drawback of the new Volkswagen Tiguan 2 is the fuel consumption of 15-16 liters ... If this is not stressful for you, then I kindly envy you.
Everything else, perfect crossover for the city. Optimal price-quality ratio. For six months of intense use, no questions.
Sergey Krel drives Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 (180 hp) AWD DSG 2016
We have been driving the new VW Tiguan 2 since March 2016. The equipment is CLUB. The first maintenance was carried out at 11 thousand km, i.e. before the prescribed 15 thousand. By the way, all VW dealers have a promotion on Sundays - a 20% discount on maintenance. Before passing the maintenance, they filled 95, periodically there was some kind of whistle for a few seconds when the engine was started, then it disappeared, the speed dropped to 0.8 in two minutes. Passed MOT — everything is OK, changed the oil, filters.
They asked about the whistle, no one answered intelligibly. We live in the Crimea, 98 gasoline has been imported to us since September. We switched to it. And a miracle - the whistle disappeared, the speed after starting the engine falls in 10-15 seconds. The car is frisky, the turbine turns on when the driver needs it, i.e. when overtaking low gear and it helps a lot.
Noise isolation is good. When we bought, we were frightened by oil consumption — nothing like that. There were practically no expenses. In general, comfortable, dignified, crossover))
Consumption on the highway - 5.4-6.0, city - 8-10, up to 11 - if there are traffic jams. Eat good feature- Autohold - keeps the car on the descent and ascent, like a handbrake, when you need to move off, you press the gas pedal and there is no rolling back at all.
Accelerates well and briskly, holds the track steadily. The speed of 120-130 km / h is not felt. Didn't like the upholstery. The fabric could be better.
Irina, review of the Volkswagen Tiguan 1.4 (125 hp) mechanics in 2016
Very comfortable car, dynamic and economical, stylish and modern. A daily trip turns into a pleasure for the whole family. For 30 years of driving, I changed 10 cars - the Tiguan did not disappoint. Of the shortcomings, I will only note that the seat upholstery material could be better.

Where can I buy?
The car was bought in the spring of 2017. I had three main requirements: diesel, webasto and bumper off road. I bought this one - Comfortline equipment + six option packages.
I often go to nature (fishing, mushrooms), so I decided to change bmw sedan to something higher. In principle, I am satisfied with the replacement, but, as they say, there are nuances. After the purchase, I pasted over the entire front of the car with a film (I drive fast and sometimes far, and the headlights and paint become cloudy in a couple of years). I installed a mesh in the bumper - the radiators look painfully defenseless))
LED headlights, especially at night and in the rain — it's class! I also liked the strips of LED lighting in the doors and thresholds, it’s cozy.
I do not like fabric upholstery on the door — quickly dirty. For some reason, several electrical connectors were placed under the neck of the windshield washer reservoir - if you miss a little, liquid gets on them. In some modes, the rearview mirror shakes and vibrates. Dipped beam — well, very close.
Review of Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 diesel (150 hp) with robot and all-wheel drive 2017
The car is purely masculine in design, strict, as my friend says: “not very pontovitaya and not very simple, spectacular — that is, the golden mean.” I fully agree with him.
At the beginning of his journey, a medium-sized German volkswagen crossover Tiguan was not the most attractive offer in the global car market. Over time, this situation has changed a lot, and today this model is quite popular in many countries of the world, including Russia. In connection with the update, the “SUV” has become even more beautiful, technologically advanced and attractive in general, therefore, in Volkswagen's success Tiguan 2017 release no doubt.

Among the amenities available in the top Highline equipment, there are seats with a wide range of adjustments, and 3-zone climate control, and atmospheric lighting, not to mention the built-in LED strips, illuminating door handles, legroom, etc. 
The main feature of the interior of the German novelty, perhaps, can be called the Active Info Display virtual instrument panel, which can easily adapt to the individual desires of the driver. Its 12-inch high-resolution display with smartphone sync capability reflects and highlights all the information you need. Thanks to the Active Info Display, important information is always right in front of your eyes, which increases the level of comfort and safety at times.
Design
At the core of the 2017 Tiguan is the MQB modular design that underpins the current Volkswagen versions Golf and Passat. The use of the new platform reduced the weight of the crossover by about 50 kg and increased its overall dimensions, which had a positive effect on handling and roominess. Now the length of the model is 4.486 m (+60 mm), the width is 1.839 m (+30 mm), and ground clearance- 20 cm (+11 mm).
Adaptation to Russian conditions
Clearance increased to 200 mm and 4Motion permanent all-wheel drive with different regimes driving make a new Tiguan great option for operation in Russian conditions, even on severe off-road conditions. The 4Motion all-wheel drive system guarantees easy driving on the road with any type of surface, as evidenced by the latest reviews from car owners and test drives of the model. latest generation. To make the driver and passengers of the SUV feel as comfortable as possible in the cold season, the Winter Technologies package of options is provided, which includes heating of the steering wheel, rear-view mirrors, washer nozzles, front seats and rear sofa. In addition, the car has an electrically heated windshield.

Competent organization inner space and progressive equipment transform Salon Tiguan 2017 to a place where it is always a pleasure to be. Here, the seats of the 1st row can be adjusted in height, have the function of lumbar support, remember the position and are equipped with folding tables with cup holders. The rear sofa with central armrest moves back and its backrest folds partially or completely, thereby revealing an impressive volume luggage compartment- as much as 1655 liters. This is quite enough to carry all the necessary things, including bulky sports equipment. State-of-the-art touchscreen infotainment system high resolution and intuitive interface allows you to stay connected and listen to your favorite music without being distracted from driving. The control buttons for this system are located on the ergonomic multifunction steering wheel with leather braid. The seats and gear lever are also trimmed with high-quality leather. 
The Panoramic Sliding Roof (not available on all trims) makes it possible to enjoy a sunny day or a star-studded night sky while driving. The electrically operated roof slides, raises and lowers, providing excellent visibility and creating a special atmosphere in the cabin. If the lighting is not enough, then you can use a special LED interior lighting. Opening the trunk and parking is effortless, as the 2017 Tiguan is equipped with an electronic Park Assist that recognizes suitable parking spaces, and the Easy Open system, thanks to which the cargo compartment opens with a single movement of the foot under the rear bumper.

Cars following behind are controlled by the Side Assist lane change system due to sensors located in the “stern” part of the body. To avoid a collision, this assistant automatically applies emergency braking.
