In mid 2018, Volkswagen launched the Allspace version of the Tiguan.
Maintaining the same powertrains as the Tiguan short wheelbase, key visual differences included 215mm of extra length (to 4701mm), a corresponding wheelbase stretch (by 109mm to 2790mm), and completely different bodywork aft of the B-pillar that brings with it wider rear doors and C-pillar side glass as well as 106mm of more rear overhang.
Moreover, a raised bonnet (to make the SUV more aggressive-looking for the US market, which only takes the Allspace version in both five and seven-seater set-ups) and more chrome in the grille were also applied. Weight penalties are in the region of 130kg-plus, give or take.
