Updated Technology, Bolder Styling, and More – the 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan is Revealed

The best-selling Volkswagen, both in the U.S. and worldwide, has gotten a refresh as well as new styling and technology for the 2022 model year. The 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan revealed itself to the public, and it looks better than ever. Here is what we know so far about the SUV:

On the outside, the 2022 Tiguan keeps its iconic look, but sharpens it with a completely revised front end. A distinctive bumper and broad grille and complemented by standard LED headlights and daytime running lights (DRLs), and can be accented further by an available illuminated light line flanking the VW logo.

The two top trims feature updated, sporty R-Line design elements, including bumpers and side sills. The 2022 Tiguan will offer eight exterior colors – including new Oryx White and Kings Red Metallic – and every trim level receives new wheels, ranging from 17-inch to 20-inch aluminum-alloy wheels.

“The 2022 Tiguan represents a strong refresh for one of our best-selling SUVs,” said Hein Schafer, Senior Vice President for Product Marketing and Strategy. “It boasts sportier exterior styling, attainable technology, and competitive driver assistance feature deployment.”

Inside the 2022 Tiguan, you will find all kinds of updated technology. The Volkswagen Digital Cockpit instrument cluster now comes standard with an 8-inch display (10-inch Digital Cockpit Pro available), as does Volkswagen Car-Net with in-car Wi-Fi capability when you subscribe to a data plan.

Finally, comfort and convenience features get an upgrade as well. Heated front seats are now standard, with heated steering wheel and ventilated front seats as available options. Models from the second trim up receive a next-generation Climatronic Touch interface for climate control and power tailgate, while R-Line models get a leather-wrapped steering wheel with touch island and sliders.
