The video version had the cx5 win because the Tiguan was too expensive.

Lol was it still quoting the wrong pricing for the adding packages?

Couple new reviews from Chasing Cars. These guys love the Tiguan. Apologies if these have been posted, don't think I've seen them here yet though.

I quite like chasing cars, they are young and independent and seem to offer slightly different angles to the big boys.

Agree, really good reviews. I also like the quality of their videography. They really put a lot of creative time and effort into some of their productions.

Volkswagen Will Keep Selling the Old Tiguan Alongside the New Tiguan - The Drive

Interesting write up on the original Tig being retained in a limited capacity alongside the updated model. Notably though, the article refers to the new Tig being built in Mexico [emoji1166] in future.

Can't see that taking off in our market. Aussies won't buy a new/old Tiggy when there are plenty of second hand ones available

My understanding is the Mexico factory will be making the Tiguan XL (the longer wheel base) which is the only model being sold into the US. Makes sense to build it in Mexico to cut down shipping costs.

The will continue to build the standard wheel base new Tiggy in Germany

Makes sense. Had no idea about a long wheelbase version. Had a look, I think the extended wheelbase pushes the aesthetics and proportions too far. Doesn't have the same elegant stance as the current version at all.

Totally agree. Doesn't look good long!

Not so much of a review but seems to be the German release of the 2018 model along with the new electric hybrid GTE version. Not sure what the info about the engine update is by the uploader but havent heard it mentioned anywhere else?

Thanks Gladbach. Very interesting read. How do you and the others that own a 162TSI relate to the comments made? Not sure about his take on the power based on what I have read on this forum to date. Curious to know what others think that actually own the car.
