Does the Tiguan belong to Shanghai Volkswagen or FAW-Volkswagen?
2 Answers
The Tiguan belongs to Shanghai Volkswagen, but Shanghai Volkswagen has now been renamed to SAIC Volkswagen. The Volkswagen Tiguan offers a total of 7 models across 4 versions: Urban Edition, Fashion, Elite, and Flagship. These models are equipped with Volkswagen's flagship 1.8TSI and 2.0TSI engines, delivering excellent performance in both power and fuel efficiency. They are paired with a 6-speed manual transmission or an Aisin 6-speed automatic transmission. In terms of body dimensions, the Tiguan measures 4506mm in length, 1809mm in width, and 1685mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2684mm. Its trunk space can be flexibly adjusted between 400L and 1530L, enhancing practicality.
I have been driving the Tiguan for several years. As a model produced by SAIC Volkswagen, it has proven to be very reliable in my daily commute. I remember when I first researched car options, I learned that SAIC Volkswagen is primarily responsible for the production and sales of the Tiguan, while FAW Volkswagen handles sedans like the Magotan. From a practical driving perspective, the SUV design of the Tiguan is well-suited for family trips, and maintenance is convenient due to the widespread availability of 4S stores across the country, making parts easy to find. Compared to other brands, this division of labor by Volkswagen in the Chinese market is quite common, and choosing a product from SAIC Volkswagen is always a safe bet.
