ALLSPACE OFFERS ROOM AND PACE

Building on the multiple award winning Tiguan, the Tiguan Allspace features a full array of Volkswagen Group's sophisticated advanced features – many of them standard – in a package that Volkswagen Group Australia Managing Director Michael Bartsch calls a "premium SUV that is priced well below the luxury car tax threshold".

"As has been the case with the normal wheelbase Tiguan, the single best-selling Tiguan Allspace variant will be the 162TSI Highline – almost half of overall take up. Some 70 per cent of these customers will also take up the R-Line option."

More capacious and luxuriously appointed, the Tiguan Allspace is more than just a utilitarian choice for families who need the occasional use of third row seating – it is a style statement.

Designed in parallel with the award-winning Tiguan, the Tiguan Allspace is recognisable by body features that include a wider rear door, a raised bonnet above the radiator grille and a unique side window design that rises above the C-pillar.

Overall, the Tiguan Allspace is a bigger vehicle than the standard Tiguan, with an overall length of 4,701mm (+215mm), as well as an additional 106mm more rear overhang, which allows for the addition of two seats in the third row and, most impressively, a boot of 230 litres with the seats up. The Tiguan Allspace also sits on a longer wheelbase, stretching 109mm beyond the length of the original Tiguan.

The Tiguan Allspace is available with a choice of petrol and diesel engines, and feature-packed equipment grades. The range begins with the Comfortline grade, which will be available with either 110kW/250Nm turbocharged petrol engine with a 6-speed DSG and front-wheel drive, 132kW/320Nm turbocharged petrol engine with a 7-speed DSG and 4MOTION all-wheel drive, or 110kW/340Nm turbocharged diesel engine with a 7-speed DSG and 4MOTION all-wheel drive.

Moving up to the Highline grade, the Tiguan Allspace ups the ante with two sporty engines – the Golf GTI-derived 162kW/350Nm turbocharged petrol engine with 7-speed DSG and 4MOTION, and the 140kW/400Nm turbo diesel mated to a 7-speed DSG and 4MOTION AWD.
