Be nothing they expect in the 2027 VW Tiguan

The Volkswagen Tiguan got its name from a magazine contest—it’s a combination of “tiger” and the German word for “iguana.” A little unexpected, sure, but we’ve taken what those animals embody—power, elegance, and adaptability—to build an SUV that dominates on the road, looks great, and is built for adventure.

Climb into your Tiguan and experience:

  • Premium design and refined comfort with available massage and ventilated front seats
  • Performance with 201 horsepower standard, that’s enough to brag about
  • Generous 69.8 total cu ft of cargo space (with the 2nd row folded down)⁠ 
  • Serious capability including 1,800 lbs of towing capacity⁠ 
  • Convenient technology like Auto Hold, standard for 2027

With all of this and more, the 2027 Volkswagen Tiguan Compact SUV pairs performance and delight with affordable luxury.
