The Tiguan, yes looks great, IS Diesel. What about caste-iron reliability we all can expect from Honda, & Toyota By 2009 we WILL have a bluetec option from all the manufacturers. Meanwhie, Tiguan ---looks the best, will be here first, and I'm tempted.

The pics look bland..hopefully it'll look better when its officially out.   The 2.0 Bluetec Diesel sounds real interesting...anybody have any idea what the fuel mileage ratings might be for the usa??

Replying to: fenris2 (Jun 28, 2007 11:57 am) there is a 170 hp variant? because i know the tiguan is supposed to get the revised 2.5 engine with 170 hp, but i thought the diesel would simply be bigger rather than higher output.

#15 of 127 Tiguan Timeline by feliciatwo Jun 29, 2007 (8:15 am)
I was just wondering. Does anyone know WHEN is Tiguan is due to arrive in the US ? When do 2008's usually arrive? Edmunds pictures of the Tiguan ARE bland. So too, are its' pictures of the Mini Clubman. Meanwhele,NOTHING about EITHER are bland. Visit b>other sites for the German Videos of Tiguan...and you'll be hooked. Still, does anyone know where it will be made, and has Volkswagon improved reliabily-wise than in years past? Replies to this message: vwdriver2 (Jun 29, 2007 12:54 pm)

Replying to: feliciatwo (Jun 29, 2007 8:15 am) Some say summer while others say fall...so probably somewhere in between...although it is scheduled to be out in Europe later this year. It will be made in Germany. I have owned an 2006 Passat for about 2 1/2 years now and so far no problems...I would say they are improving on quality.
#17 of 127 Official VW Pictures of 2009 Tiguan by vwdriver2 Jun 29, 2007 (12:59 pm)
Here are some of the latest pictures. I will definitely wait for this one! Wish it had the chrome front end though, but still looks great. http://www.vwvortex.com/artman/publish/volkswagen_news/article_2032.shtml Replies to this message: vwtiguanfan (Feb 16, 2008 11:07 pm) vwdriver2 (Feb 17, 2008 5:10 pm)

Replying to: eldaino (Jun 28, 2007 12:02 pm) There are indeed 140 hp and 170 vesions of the 2.0. But whether we get that, or a 2.5, or just the 2.0 140 is anyone's guess at this point I suppose. I would assume support/training/parts alone would favor the 2.0 choice, but then again I am not as odd thinking as VWoA lol.   I actually did not think of the 2.5 since the 2.0 has a 195hp version for Audi, although I think that is just show car.

Replying to: fenris2 (Aug 05, 2007 3:32 pm) From what I read, we'll get the 2.0 gas turbo first, then the 2.0 diesel. The diesel is 140hp and 200lbs torque. That should be plenty. I'm hoping maybe 35mpg? If so, it will have no competition.

Ford has made a Diesel "Kuga" (looks like RAV4) and of course it's for.... the UK. Toyota, Ford, Honda; everybody and their brother know how to do Clean Diesel. Why aren't they giving us (USA) a Zillion options in SUV clean Diesel for 2008? We're ready.
