The Tiguan, which was originally launched in 2007, is one of Volkswagen’s most important models. However, it has been experiencing a decline in sales in the last three years, indicating the need for a new generation model. Volkswagen has been diligently working on the third-generation Tiguan, and now we have a pretty accurate preview of what this vehicle could look like.

The renderings above, provided by Kolesa.ru, show a sleeker-looking model compared to the current Tiguan. These digital drawings are based on recently released teaser images of the crossover, which featured a completely camouflaged prototype. As can be seen from the images, the new Tiguan will have a less boxy design and will adopt an ID.4-inspired front fascia with sweptback LED headlights connected by a LED strip.

In addition to its improved aesthetics, the new Tiguan will also be slightly larger than its predecessor. Volkswagen has already announced that the MQB Evo-based vehicle will be 32 millimeters (1.25 inches) longer, with a total length of 4,551 mm (179.1 inches). It will also be 5 mm (0.2 inches) taller, measuring 1,640 mm (64.5 inches). However, the width and wheelbase will remain unchanged at 1,939 mm (76.3 inches) and 2,681 mm (105.5 inches), respectively.

The updated exterior look will feature new HD matrix headlights, a first for the Tiguan. While the renderings don’t provide a detailed view, each headlight cluster will have 19,200 micro-LED elements, allowing the unit to illuminate the road up to 500 meters (1,640 feet) ahead.

Details about the powertrain options of the new Tiguan are still limited. However, it is expected to offer gasoline, diesel, and plug-in hybrid engines, as well as front- and all-wheel-drive versions. The 2024 Tiguan is anticipated to be the final Tiguan model with a combustion engine, as Volkswagen plans to cease offering ICE-powered cars in Europe by 2033.
