The company plans to return the third -generation crossover to line R, which can receive either a traditional two -liter turbo engine that develops more than 330 horsepower or a hybrid power plant. This decision by Volkswagen explains the success of the predecessor and the desire to compete with new sports crossovers, including Toyota RAV4 GR Sport.
Volkswagen is considering the possibility of creating the most sports version of the Tiguan crossover, which will be included in the brand Rounge. This was told by the head of the Volkswagen R unit Pedro Martinez Diaz. He noted a high demand for second -generation Tiguan R in certain regions.

The possible return of Tiguan R is associated with the availability of powerful gasoline units and the technical potential of the new platform. One of the options for the power plant can be a turbo engine that is used on Volkswagen Golf R and develops more than 330 horsepower and 420 Nm. At the same time, given the tightening of environmental norms in Europe, it is possible that the new Tiguan R will become a hybrid. Currently, the maximum power of the non -hybrid version is 271 strength, hybrid – 272. To compete, the novelty is most likely to be ahead of the Toyota RAV4 GR Sport.
In mid -May, Volkswagen also announced the upcoming change in the strategy of neiming electric vehicles.

According to Martin Sander, a member of the board of directors of Volkswagen, this decision is designed to make a line more understandable and avoid confusion among buyers.
