If you’re looking for a new crossover on a budget, Volkswagen has you covered. With the all-new 2018 Tiguan hitting showrooms this year, the automaker is introducing the 2017 Tiguan Limited based off the previous generation's platform. Smaller and stripped down, the Tiguan Limited offers a smartly packaged sport utility vehicle for an unbeatable value.

A high-value entry-level option

The Tiguan Limited sits on a smaller architecture than the latest model, which drops the price of entry to just $21,995.* A single trim, available in two packages, still offers enough choices to meet budget-minded drivers’ needs. 16-inch steel wheels, halogen headlights, cloth seats, a 5-inch infotainment system with smartphone connectivity, and a rearview camera come standard.

A 17” Alloy Wheels package is available for $495. Listed at $1,295, the Premium package offers a host of additional comfort features, including a 6.33-inch infotainment system with Apple Carplay™ and Android Auto™, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, roof rails, cruise control, two USB ports, HD radio, keyless entry, push-button start, and a cargo cover.

The Tiguan Limited gets turbocharged

Under the hood of the Tiguan Limited is a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder. The turbocharged engine mated to a six-speed transmission with standard front-wheel drive, or optional 4MOTION® all-wheel drive, produces an impressive 200 horsepower and 207 lb.-ft. of torque. The Tiguan Limited achieves an EPA-rated 22 mpg combined (20 mpg city, 24 mpg highway) with front-wheel drive, but loses 1 mpg in the combined category with all-wheel drive.**

Let's not forget safety

The Tiguan Limited includes a comprehensive safety system featuring six airbags and electronic stability control. Also included is the Intelligent Crash Response System (ICRS) that automatically shuts off the fuel pump, unlocks doors, and switches on hazard lights if the airbags deploy.

The 2017 Tiguan Limited simplifies the previous Tiguan’s features list to the essentials while maintaining the original platform and style of the much-loved model. For more information or to schedule a test drive of the Tiguan Limited, don’t hesitate to call, contact us online, or visit us in person today at 505 W.
