The Tiguan had been the global best-seller and flagship of Volkswagen and its re-entry after a gap of over a year is expected to turn the tables. This facelifted 5-Seater Tiguan will sit above the 5-Seater Volkswagen Taigun and below the 7-Seater Volkswagen Tiguan AllSpace in the Volkswagen SUV lineup. Let\u2019s see what the Volkswagen Tiguan has to offer in its new avatar.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><b>Volkswagen Tiguan Facelift: Exterior<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-473609\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143326\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171627.805-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Volkswagen Tiguan Exterior\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143326\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171627.805-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143326\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171627.805-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143326\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171627.805-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143326\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171627.805-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143326\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171627.805-834x469.jpg 834w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143326\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171627.805.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/b><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The new Volkswagen Tiguan retains the boxy design and squared-off silhouette that is quickly becoming a trademark shape for the brand. The new midsize SUV now features LED headlamps and DRLs that taper towards their swept-back end and look sharper this time. Moreover, the front facia features a revised grille with a triangular fog lamp cluster and slated air intakes, helping it differentiate from its predecessor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The side profile also looks quite similar to that of the old Volkswagen Tiguan, but features re-designed 18-inch alloy wheels. The rear gets a refreshed bumper, Tiguan badging on the tailgate, and new LED elements in the tail lamps.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><b>Volkswagen Tiguan Facelift: Interior<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-473612\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143328\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171704.775-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Volkswagen Tiguan Interior\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143328\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171704.775-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143328\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171704.775-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143328\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171704.775-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143328\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171704.775-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143328\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171704.775-834x469.jpg 834w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228143328\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-2021-11-26T171704.775.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/b><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The interior\u00a0 carries a strong resemblance to the layout of the old VW Tiguan AllSpace Touch controls for climate control instead of the older analog control with knobs and buttons is a promising enhancement.
