Hi firehouse46 - since this is the Tiguan discussion, I'm going to send you to the Volkswagen Jetta TDI discussion instead, where you're more likely to get answers. If you type "TDI" or "diesel" into the search box, you'll get a list of other diesel-related discussions.

I just called the VW info line 1 800 DRIVE VW - the rep told me that the Tiguan is expected out this summer, but that they don't have any date for a diesel rollout. The new Jetta with the new diesel is coming out this summer. I would hope they would make a decision to offer the Tiguan diesel sooner rather than later -- hoping for that improved MPG!

OK:
 
Can some customers request to a VW dealers to order a Track & Field (off-road) Tiguan directly from Germany?
 
For example customers in the UK can order through a UK dealer a LHD Tiguan Track & Field without problems. I have been informed that a Track & Field Tiguan is not still in the UK but can be ordered from Germany if the customer wants it.

How does the Tiguan compare with vehicles like the 2009 Subaru Forester or 2008 Mitsu Outlander in price and technology?

I would also be interested in comparisons for these SUV's: 2009 Tiguan vs. Oultander vs. Forester. I want a sporty, safe and economical 4x4 that is somewhat inspiring, and these seem like the best options. Just tried out a Rogue the other day, almost barfed. Honda Element is actually a very cool truck, but its slow. Maybe VW can inject some interest in this ubiquitous market...lets just hope they've figured out how to work electrical.

Tiguan at NY Auto Show by birdboy

I called VW USA to confirm that the Tiguan will be shown this year, they siad it will be there . I have had 2 Passats and despite the few problems I have had I seem to come back as there is no drive quite like it. My 2.0T purrs when it is warmed up and drives extremely well EXCEPT in the snow. I have test drove the Rogue. A nice looking product, priced right, nice options, but the engine and the CVT transmission I did not care for.It was much to noisy and I like feeling the gears shift.
I also hope that the Tiguan will be the one for me. I hope to get mid - upper twenties in gas mileage . My FWD Passat gets 30-32 on long trips.I also hope that I can get an Auto dim mirror as it was not an option on the 2.0 in 2006.
I am also going to consider the newly designed outback. The CRV is out due to poor seat comfort. The Rav4 is out due to that Wheel on its back. The Santa Fe AWD is out due to low MPG( 17-22 on a good day)

can't see out by akboss

My main complaint about the current compact SUV segment is that rearward visibility is in most cases reduced, and in some cases downright hazardous. This was my biggest complaint with the Rogue, the thing I liked best about the Element, and another reason I think the Tiguan will do well.

Chicago Auto Show (Tiguan) by vwdriver2

After waiting for over two years, I finally got a first hand glimpse of the Tiguan at the Chicago Auto Show. VW brought two Tiguans, one was fully loaded (panaromic roof, 18' wheels, nav, pretty much everything) while the other didn't have as much. One was grey while the other was liquid gold or something like that. I have to tell you, it looks even better in person! I spoke with some reps and they confirmed the May release date. I am kind of concerned because I heard that there was great demand for the Tiguan overseas and there was a waiting list so we will have to see. Knowing VW, the date will probably be pushed back...but I will definitely be getting one as soon as I see one! ">
