Tiguan R edition?

[Orpheus2k]

Motor1 at it again: VW Tiguan R Hot Crossover Spied As R Line With Quad Exhausts

Awesome news, will it come to Oz and any prices? I reckon mid $70k

Black Wolfsburg with panoroof arrived late Feb 2019. Yes, it’s a wicked colour & well worth the wait.....

After seeing that video it makes me think it's someone with an R-Line Tig that's fitted the Golf R exhaust, nothing more.

I still say it needs the 5 cyclinder from the RS3...

If you've got a few spare dollars you could always try building one.

About as close as it will ever get to existing..

As the new Toureg has according to the official VW email I received this morning. I found the 100K asking a bit of a hurdle though and the missus found it a bigger one when I asked her opinion. Sigh, such is life.

And there you have it. I wonder if VW have missed the boat with it, considering talk of the Mk3 has already started.

Yeah, seems odd that it's biggest selling model globally doesn't have a hero performance model - did they think one would not be wanted?

Also, does anyone know what gearbox they would use instead of the DQ500?

A manual transmission will not be an option with the powerful Tiguan, which will come standard with a revised version of the Volkswagen Group's seven-speed dual-clutch automatic.
