The new generation SUV debuted in China. They will offer an extended version; at the first stage, the model will be available with a two-liter turbo engine.
The European Volkswagen Tiguan entered a new generation last fall. And now a long-wheelbase crossover with the L prefix, intended for the People's Republic of China, has been officially presented. By the way, such a fresh SUV also has a “surname” Pro, because its predecessor is not going to retire yet (in China it also has a coupe-like version): models of two generations are being produced at the SAIC Volkswagen JV plant.

In terms of exterior design, the Tiguan L Pro is generally identical to its European brother, the only difference is in the details. For example, on the front bumper of a standard Chinese crossover there are other horizontal dies – they are expanded at the edges. The body kit of the “sportier” Tiguan L Pro R-Line is designed a little differently.

Dimensions of the “old world” third generation Tiguan: 4539/1842/1639 mm, distance between the axles – 2680 mm. At the same time, the “Chinese” still only has a five-seater cabin. The volume of the trunk of the VW Tiguan L Pro is 471 liters, with the backrests of the second row folded, this figure will increase to 1696 liters (the cargo compartment of the predecessor holds 495-1780 liters).
The interior is also made according to “European” patterns, but it also has its own characteristics. Thus, the Tiguan L Pro, along with a virtual instrument panel and a central 15-inch multimedia tablet, received a third screen: an 11.6-inch touchscreen is intended for the front passenger. In addition, the Chinese crossover has a two-story tunnel, and not a continuous one, as in Europe. But they left the puck with a small display – it can be used to select the driving mode or adjust the volume.
