The Volkswagen Tiguan Adventure has been announced
this week, bringing a range of off-road inspired enhancements inside and out
for those who more regularly venture off the beaten track.
Based on the mid-spec 132TSI Comfortline and 110TDI
Comfortline variants, the Tiguan Adventure starts at AUD 43,990 plus on-road costs
with the petrol engine and AUD 45,490 for the diesel – representing a AUD 2500
premium over each.
Headlining equipment upgrades include a new
‘off-road’ front bumper that improves the approach angle to 24-degrees,
underbody protection, LED headlights, larger 18-inch alloy wheels, keyless
access, an electric tailgate, Volkswagen Genuine Accessory roof bars, and power
folding door mirrors.
Inside, buyers of the Tiguan Adventure are also
treated to 14-way adjustable ‘ErgoActive’ driver’s seat with electric lumbar
support and massage function, ‘Art Velours’ microfleece seat trim, and heated
front seats. Other unique touches include ‘Adventure’ badging, ‘off road’ aluminium
front door sill inlays, and the availability of Atlantic Blue metallic – though the latter is a AUD 700 option.
Volkswagen will also offer the Tiguan Adventure in
Pure White, Tungsten Silver (metallic), Indium Grey (metallic) and Deep Black
(pearlescent), which the company says are the four most popular colours for its
medium SUV in Australia.
Finally, the Driver Assistance Package (AUD 2000) is
optionally available – adding auto park assist, the 12.3-inch ‘Active Info’
driver’s display, adaptive cruise control, a 360-degree camera system and lane
assist – as is a panoramic sunroof (AUD 2000). The Volkswagen Tiguan Adventure is available to
order now.
