In terms of design, the Tiguan Allspace looks fairly similar to the standard model albeit for minor updates such as slightly revised grille flanked by new LED projector headlamps and a revised front bumper. The side, apart from the extra length, looks similar to the standard model with 18-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels. Moving on to the rear, it comes with split-LED tail lamps.

Inside, the Tiguan Allspace’s cabin now comes in a black-beige finish, giving it an airy and premium feeling. It retains the standard model’s neat and minimalistic dashboard layout that also feels tough and built to last.
The Tiguan Allspace also comes loaded with features. Highlights include a digital driver’s display, connected car technology, a panoramic sunroof, an 8-inch infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, powered front seats, drive modes as well as cruise control. Safety features include 7 airbags, ABS with EBD, front and rear parking sensors, a rear parking camera, electronic stability control as well as an electronic parking brake with auto-hold function.
The Tiguan Allspace is powered by a BS6-compliant 2.0-litre TSI engine that puts out 190PS of power and 320Nm of torque. It’s paired to a 7-speed DSG and drives the four wheels via VW’s 4MOTION all-wheel drive tech. The Allspace won’t be offered with a diesel engine option in the near future. Here’s how its petrol engine fares against the standard model’s TDI diesel motor:
