Where is the handbrake on the Tiguan?
2 Answers
The handbrake on the Tiguan is located below the gear lever. Here is some relevant information about the Tiguan: 1. Powertrain: The Tiguan L will continue to offer a 2.0T engine, available in two power levels - a low-power version with 186 horsepower and a high-power version with 220 horsepower. It will also feature a 1.4T plug-in hybrid system, with the plug-in hybrid model's engine delivering a maximum power of 150 horsepower. The transmission system is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox. 2. Features: Depending on the model, the new vehicle will be equipped with features such as ACC adaptive cruise control, an intelligent connectivity system, 360-degree panoramic imaging, and wireless phone charging.
Having driven the Tiguan for many years, I remember the handbrake position very clearly. As a daily driver, it's located on the center console to the right of the driver's seat, right next to the gear shift. If you're driving a model with a traditional lever, you need to gently pull up that small lever to engage the brake; for the electronic handbrake version, it's usually a small button that you press to activate or deactivate. It feels quite handy to use, especially in parking lots or on slopes, where one operation does the trick. I suggest that beginners who aren't familiar with it can look for the indicator near the foot area or refer to the diagrams in the owner's manual. Remember not to accidentally engage it while driving—safety first. Regular maintenance can help reduce the occurrence of malfunctions.
