Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line: The SUVW Goes Sport Mode
Volkswagen India has pulled the wraps off its newest flagship — the all-new Tiguan R-Line. A performance-packed, tech-laden SUVW, this one’s all about attitude, safety, and serious road presence. Priced at ₹48.99 lakh (ex-showroom), it’s not here to just participate — it’s here to compete.
Sharp Looks with ‘R’ Spirit
The Tiguan R-Line isn’t shy about flexing its sporty intent. A new gloss black front grille with LED Plus headlights gives it a bold face. The R-Line exclusive 19-inch ‘Coventry’ alloys add a dose of muscle, while a continuous LED strip at the rear gives it a clean, contemporary touch. Step inside, and you’re greeted with R-badged comfort sport seats, ambient lighting in 30 colours, and a panoramic sunroof for those sky-gazing drives.
Performance to Back the Looks
Under that sculpted hood is a 2.0-litre TSI EVO petrol engine delivering 204 PS and 320 Nm of torque. Mated to a 7-speed DSG gearbox and 4Motion all-wheel-drive system, it promises grip, punch, and control across terrains. Thanks to Dynamic Chassis Control Pro and a clever Vehicle Dynamics Manager, the Tiguan R-Line offers a balance of agility, stability, and ride comfort.
Safety at the Forefront
Volkswagen’s latest SUV comes loaded with 21 Level-2 ADAS features, including Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Assist, and Emergency Braking. It doesn’t stop there — with 9 airbags, hill start/descent control, tyre pressure monitoring, and a 5-star Euro NCAP rating, it’s built to protect.
Infotainment and In-Cabin Tech
The cabin tech is top-drawer — a 38.1 cm touchscreen infotainment system, 26.04 cm digital cockpit, a new head-up display, wireless phone charging, and IDA voice assistant. Music duties are handled by an eight-speaker audio system, turning commutes into concerts.
Final Thoughts
The new Tiguan R-Line feels like Volkswagen’s way of saying, “We still know how to build a driver’s car.” It’s bold, packed with tech, and throws in a little German mischief with those R-Line touches. If you’re shopping in this segment, this one deserves a serious test drive — preferably with Sport mode on.
