The 4 Motion AWD system helps in its go-anywhere capabilities and the entire driving experience is elevated with DCC (Dynamic Chassis Control). This allows the vehicle to adjust its suspension settings as per the driving mode selected and is a unique offering in its segment. It also gets Comfort Parking Assistance that helps navigate a parking with ease.
Coming to safety, the Tiguan R-Line takes the game to the top with Level 2 ADAS that offers 21 safety features, unmatched in the segment. To add to it, the 9 airbags setup makes it one of the safest cars on the road.
