The Tiguan will initially be available with two engines, a 2.0L 140hp TDI and a 1.4L 150hp TSI petrol unit. Later in 2008 a 170hp TDI and two further petrol engines will become available to order. Both diesel engines meet the stringent Euro 5 emissions standard that comes into effect in 2009.
S, SE and Sport models will be offered at launch, all with 4MOTION four-wheel drive and an 18 degree angle of approach, a figure that defines the size of obstruction the vehicle can drive over. Customers requiring additional off-road capability can choose a 28 degree angle of approach front end. This model comes with a radiator protection grille, underbody protection, hill descent control and a compass.

Wheres the freaky orange bits and pieces that were on the concept? Looks pretty dull and boring now!

Just looking at it.... No, that's a miss for VW. It looks like a last generation Kia or Hyundai. It also looks like a Golf on steroids.
