Visually, the Volkswagen Tiguan AllSpace carries the same design and styling cues as the 5-seater model, albeit the former gets a slightly tweaked rear, which is also seen in these spy photos. The changes include a slightly bigger rear spoiler in a glossy black shade instead of the body-coloured one on the Tiguan and a revised rear bumper with more glossy black treatment and horizontal dual exhaust ports. Of course, these visual changes are specific to the R-Line trim, the regular version is likely to get silver treatment.
The front section too gets the aggressive treatment of the R-Line trim with a sportier front bumper and a tweaked grille. The contours are more prominent and appear to sit a bit higher, and the SUV is running on a set of 17-inch Tulsa alloy wheels. The top-end Tiguan AllSpace R-Line variant will also come features like LED headlamps, darkened LED rear combination lamps, Active Info Display fully digital instrument cluster, 8-inch Discovery Media navigation system with clear glass screen, sports front seats are standard.
