Which model is the Tiguan L2038?

Tiguan L2038 refers to the Tiguan L380. Taking the Tiguan L 2021 380TSI Automatic 4WD R-Line Yuexiang Edition 7-Seater as an example: It is a mid-size SUV with a length, width, and height of 4716mm, 1859mm, and 1677mm respectively. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 162kW and a maximum torque of 350Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Tiguan L 2021 380TSI Automatic 4WD R-Line Yuexiang Edition 7-Seater features front-engine, front-wheel drive (FWD), with a front suspension type of MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension type of multi-link independent suspension. It uses electric power steering and has a unibody structure.

I've also looked into the Touareg L2038 issue before, and later confirmed it's the internal code name for the 2020 model. The most noticeable change is the front grille, which now features a wavy pattern design with a chrome strip embedded in the logo. I've driven my friend's model of this, which is equipped with the third-generation EA888 engine across the lineup. The 330TSI version delivers a maximum of 186 horsepower, and fuel consumption is well controlled, averaging around 9 liters in urban driving. The configuration is much more generous than the older model, with even the base version featuring three-zone automatic air conditioning and a rearview camera. The high-end version also includes power seats with memory function. This model is quite common in the used car market now, but be sure to check if the sunroof drain pipes are clogged, as this is a common issue.

Coincidentally, I recently researched the codename system of the Tiguan L, and 2038 refers to the 2020 Volkswagen Tiguan L. The differences from the 2019 model are quite noticeable: the body was extended by over 20mm, providing more spacious rear legroom. It comes standard with an 8-inch touchscreen supporting CarPlay, and the gear lever was redesigned with a flat base. I must remind you to pay attention to two details: this generation switched to a touch-sensitive air conditioning panel, which is less convenient for blind operation while driving; the 280TSI version uses a 1.4T engine, which can feel a bit sluggish during rapid acceleration.

2038 represents the 2020 Tiguan L. What I love most about this generation is the upgraded safety features, with automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control being standard across the lineup. However, the infotainment system occasionally freezes and requires a restart, which many users have complained about in forums. The redesigned L-shaped 3D taillight clusters offer excellent nighttime visibility. The 495L trunk capacity can easily accommodate a stroller, providing about 50L more space than the CR-V.
