2025 Volkswagen Tiguan price and specs

Due to arrive in May, the German brand's competitor to the Toyota RAV4 and Mazda CX-5 now offers more features than ever before in its most basic guise, with the price of entry only rising by $1000 and new trim levels affording more choice.

Life, Elegance and R-Line grades remain, with a new 110TSI Elegance joining the range and a new 195TSI R-Line flagship serving as a spiritual successor to the previous-generation Tiguan R performance hero.

New engines debut as well, including the aforementioned 195TSI tune of the EA888 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, in addition to the revised mid-spec 150TSI 2.0-litre four with all-wheel drive – serving as a successor to the popular 162TSI grade offered in the previous generation.

From the base grade, there's a 10.25-inch Digital Cockpit instrument cluster, 12.9-inch infotainment touchscreen with navigation, surround cameras, keyless entry, a power tailgate, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

These features are in addition to the brand's full suite of assists as standard equipment.

All models also pick up the new Dynamic Road Sign Assist system, which first debuted on the new Touareg. Traffic sign recognition has been an omission from Australian-delivered VW models for some time.

New technologies available depending on variant include HD Matrix LED headlights, a massive 15.0-inch touchscreen infotainment display, and the brand's Dynamic Chassis Control Pro with 15-stage adaptive dampers.

At launch three engine variants will be offered, though we only have preliminary figures at this stage.

*Further details to be confirmed (-)

Volkswagen also offers 48V mild-hybrid petrol engines overseas, in addition to turbo-diesel and plug-in hybrid powertrains. At this stage, these are not on the table for Australia for the time being.

Local dimensions are still to be confirmed, but we can use global specifications as a guide.

*Global specifications

The Tiguan will be covered by Volkswagen's five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty in Australia, though details around capped-price servicing are still to be confirmed.

The outgoing model was available with up to five-year Care Plans which packaged the first five years of servicing upfront, and varied depending on engine variant.

For reference, the five-year Care Plan cost $3340, $3650 and $3550 across the equivalent 110TSI, 162TSI and R versions of the outgoing Tiguan, respectively.

In New Zealand, the latest Volkswagen Tiguan wears a five-star ANCAP safety rating based on 2024 testing by Euro NCAP – Australian variants aren't rated yet, though we would expect a similar result.

Standard safety equipment includes:
