It is also paired to a seven-speed DSG gearbox and traction-enhancing 4Motion all-wheel drive system as standard, Volkswagen claims the oil-burner will power its way to 100km/h in 9.4 seconds and hit a maximum speed of 207km/h.
While the Tiguan 2.0 TDI 4Motion can be ordered in R-Line specification, customers can also opt for the more affordable Life trim.

Exterior highlights come in the shape of stylish 17" Bari alloy-wheels, a light strip linking the front headlamps and rear combination lamps, functional black roof rails, black side window strips, illuminated door handle recesses and body coloured bumpers.
The range-topping Tiguan 2.0 TSI 4Motion R-Line is priced at R852,600 with the Tiguan 2.0 TDI 4Motion R-Line coming in at R851,500. The 2.0 TDI 4Motion Life is R 770,800. All come with a three-year/120,000 km warranty and five-year 90,000km service plan.

Volkswagen has bolstered its Tiguan range with the addition of two new powertrains.
The flagship Tiguan 2.0 TSI 4Motion comes equipped with a punchy 2.0l four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine making 140kW and 350Nm of torque. Meshed to a seven-speed DSG transmission and the carmaker's 4Motion all-wheel drive system, Volkswagen said it will sprint from 0-100km/h in 6.5 seconds and reach a maximum speed of 225km/h.
The latest addition is available exclusively in R-Line specification, which avails a range of interior niceties including sports comfort front seats upholstered in Varenna leather, 30-colour ambient lighting, illuminated front door inserts and a heated/leather-wrapped multi-function sports steering wheel with shifting paddles. Standout exterior features include sportier front/rear bumpers, a gloss black air intake grille, silver anodised roof rails, chrome side window strips and a set of aggressive looking 19" Coventry alloy wheels.
