What is the imported version of the Tiguan called?
2 Answers
The imported version of the Tiguan is still called the Tiguan. Here are some details about the Tiguan: 1. Performance: The TIGUAN is equipped with two industry-leading engines, the 1.8TSI and 2.0TSI, which deliver strong power and higher fuel efficiency, setting the trend for future high-efficiency, low-consumption engines. Thanks to the high-pressure direct injection technology, the 2.0TSI engine delivers a maximum power of 147kW and a maximum torque of 280Nm. More importantly, this engine reaches peak torque at just 1700rpm, combining the characteristics of small displacement with high power and low-speed high torque. The 1.8TSI engine in the TIGUAN also performs exceptionally well, reaching a peak torque of 250Nm at 1500rpm, surpassing its competitors by 25%-30%. It is the only SUV in its class that can deliver strong power right from the start. 2. Safety Features: When it comes to German cars, most people think of safety. Safety has become synonymous with German vehicles. The Volkswagen Tiguan comes standard with ESP (Electronic Stability Program), EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution), and ASR (Traction Control). Features like the less common EDS (Electronic Differential Lock), EPB (Electronic Parking Brake), Auto Hold function, and TPR (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) are all standard on the Tiguan, demonstrating Volkswagen's strong emphasis on safety. Front dual airbags and front side airbags ensure passenger safety, while the standard child safety locks highlight the importance placed on children's safety.
As a seasoned owner of an imported Tiguan, I can confirm it's actually named Tiguan. Unlike the domestically produced Tiguan L, the imported Tiguan retains the original German design, offering a firmer suspension and more responsive acceleration, making it particularly comfortable for long-distance driving. The interior materials are generally more premium, such as the seat leather and dashboard details, which are well-crafted. Although the maintenance costs are slightly higher, it has a low failure rate and decent resale value. I recommend it to friends who pursue an authentic driving experience. If the budget allows, prioritize the imported Tiguan version, which also offers optional all-wheel drive for safer driving on snowy and icy roads.
