Launched in the US for 2009, the Tiguan brought Golf-derived road manners to the compact-crossover class and grew into one of Volkswagen's most important models worldwide.
The 2018 redesign gave the US a longer-wheelbase Tiguan with an available third row, repositioning it as a roomier family crossover. Source note: Wikipedia / CarBuzz — US Tiguan gens: MY2009–2017, MY2018–2024 (LWB), MY2025–present.
