Dubbed the 2017 Tiguan Limited, this previous-gen
SUV is scheduled to arrive in US showrooms soon, boasting a starting MSRP of US$ 21,995.
Compared to the all-new Tiguan, the 2017 Limited
version is cheaper by US$ 3,350 in terms of entry-level models. It also packs
16" steel wheels, halogen headlights, cloth seating and door inserts,
color infotainment system and a rear-view camera.
The Wheel Package will add 17" alloys for US$ 495,
whereas the Premium Package (US$ 1,295) adds VW's Composition Media infotainment
system (Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, HD radio), cruise control, leather
steering wheel, keyless access, a cargo cover and roof rails.
The six-speed automatic transmission and 200 HP
turbocharged 2.0-liter TSI engine are standard, although buyers will get a
choice of either front-wheel drive or 4Motion all-wheel drive.
In terms of safety, the Tiguan
Limited features six airbags as standard, along with multiple electronic and
mechanical systems such as the advanced Volkswagen Intelligent Crash Response
System (ICRS), which automatically shuts off the fuel pump, unlocks the doors
and turns on the hazard warning lights in case of airbag deployment.
