The Tiguan moves into Category A

Volkswagen Singapore’s Category A model line-up has been expanded with the introduction of the new Tiguan 1.4 TSI.



It is powered by a 1.4 TSI Twincharger engine producing 150 bhp. Thernstrong 240 Nm of torque – available all the way from 1,500-4,000 rpm –rndelivers effortless acceleration in all driving conditions. Paired with this multi-award winning engine is the equally acclaimed 6-speed DSG transmission, which shifts gears incredibly quickly and smoothly. The Tiguan 1.4 TSI goes from 0-100 km/h in only 9.3 seconds,and reaches a top speed of 193 km/h.



With a combined fuel consumption figure of just 7.1 L/100km and CO2rnemissions of 164 g/km, the Tiguan 1.4 TSI is also extremely efficient.rnFitted as standard is Volkswagen’s BlueMotion Technology package,rnwhich includes a Stop/Start System and Brake Energy Regeneration. Additionally, the DSG has a coasting function – when the driver releases the accelerator pedal, for example when slowing down to a traffic light, the transmission disengages and the engine idles. This enables optimal utilisation of the Tiguan’s kinetic energy.



The Tiguan 1.4 TSI may have a downsized engine but its equipment list is impressively long. Among the standard features are ElectronicrnStabilisation Programme (ESP), 6 airbags, fatigue detection, a full-colour multi-function trip computer display, automatic headlamps and wipers, and 17-inch alloy wheels.
