We all know that Volkswagen is a hot brand for aftermarket upgrades, customization, and unique looks for each driver. However, you're probably used to seeing a Jetta, Golf, GTI, maybe even a tricked out Passat. When was the last time you saw a hooked up Tiguan? (I mean other than my post of the Fahrenheit Tiguan some time last year, lol). Check out an ABT rendition of the Tiguan.

What are the critics saying?

We all know we love our Tiguans. I haven't met an unhappy Tiguan owner yet, as a matter of fact. That being said, what are the critics saying about our little punch-packing SUV?

• "Among the Tiguan's best traits are a flexible interior and a turbocharged engine that's standard across the line. The 2013 Tiguan also stands out with its polished looks and fun-to-drive nature." -- Kelley Blue Book 
• "What really sets the Tiguan apart from other small crossover SUVs is its upscale interior and sophisticated driving dynamics, both of which are noticeably better than its competitors." -- Edmunds (2012)

Sounds good to me!!!

If Only We Could...

Here's a taste of what our European friends are getting in their VW's. Self-Parking Tiguans. Envy.....

89 MPG?!?!?!?!?!

For those out there who love the Tiguan, but want a little more space, VW may be coming out with something in the near future that may tweak your interests. You'll also be very interested to hear about it's new efficiency numbers. Get ready, record books....

This new CrossBlue concept will feature a revolutionary diesel-electric, plug-in hybrid powertrain. That's right. We've all wondered when diesel and hybrid technology would pair up, and the time is now. It is a TDI Clean Diesel engine, mated to two electric motors, and then a DSG gearbox mated to VW's 4Motion. 4Motion + DSG + TDI + Hybrid = a staggering 89 mpg in electric mode and 35 mpg combined. In a 6 passenger, 3-row SUV. Wow.

As if that wasn't enough, the powertrain also pumps out 306 horsepower, and a whopping 516 pound-feet of torque. That's enough to launch the car from 0 to 60 in just 7 seconds. Three rows, fuel efficiency, and brute strength should be enough to catapult this vehicle into the record books, when it's released....

And Then There Was One.......

We're down to one last 2012 Tiguan!!!!! This is that great "last car on the lot" deal everybody is waiting for! One 2012 Reflex Silver Tiguan SE with Charcoal leatherette interior.

Contact me ASAP to grab yours!!!

2013 Model Update

Great news for those who are in the market, or who will be in the market for a 2013 Tiguan. Volkswagen has kept many of the features of the pocket SUV that owners and fans love (like the 2.0T that deliver 200 hp and still gets over 26 mpg on the highway). However, VW felt that owners could use a few more comfort features in their Tiguans. The 2013 Tiguan will offer more standard features like Electronic Parking Brake, Hill-Hold Control, a leather wrapped multi-function steering wheel, and a leather shift knob FOR ALL TRIM LEVELS. Nice!!! The SE trim level will now offer a partial power passenger seat! Also, the SEL trim level will have a power passenger seat AND a rear view camera. Upgrades, upgrades!
