Volkswagen has detailed the price and specifications of its longer-wheelbase, typically seven-seat Tiguan Allspace in mid-life updated form.
UPDATE, 07/02/2022 – Volkswagen Australia has revealed special edition Tiguan Allspace Adventure. It only has five seats, unlike every other Australian-spec model, and offers features designed to make the SUV tougher and more practical.
Priced from $51,990 before on-road costs, the Allspace Adventure is due to arrive in Volkswagen showrooms during August 2022.
Tiguan Allspace Adventure
Compared to the Tiguan five-seater which has already been facelifted and launched, the typically seven-seat Allspace is built at a different factory, and runs on a different product cycle.
Volkswagen has indicated the updated Tiguan Allspace is slated to go on sale in May 2022.
The Tiguan Allspace range is very similar to the five-seater Tiguan range, kicking off with the 110TSI Life petrol, followed by the 132TSI and 162TSI petrol options. The range is capped off with the diesel 147TDI R-Line. There’ll be no seven-seat Tiguan Allspace R.
Pricing starts at $44,590 before on-road costs for the 110TSI Life and extends to $61,690 before on-road costs for the 147TDI R-Line.
Overseas models shown
Historically, the Tiguan Allspace has been roughly $2000 more expensive than the five-seater Tiguan, but this updated Tiguan Allspace costs between $3100 and $4200 more.
A revised exterior design with new front and rear bumpers, updated LED lighting at both ends including available matrix LED headlights, revised alloy wheels, and ‘Tiguan’ lettering on the tailgate all feature.
Inside, the 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace gets a new steering wheel with a Digital Cockpit Pro digital instrument cluster, as well as wired and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, DAB+ digital radio, a standard wireless phone charger, and a torch in the boot.
The Tiguan Allspace competes in the medium SUV segment, but only a few offer seven seats including the Mitsubishi Outlander, Honda CR-V, and Nissan X-Trail. However, it’s also cross-shopped against the Mazda CX-8, Hyundai Santa Fe and Kia Sorento.
