The 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan reshapes the lineup with the debut of the SEL R-Line Turbo, stepping in as the new range-topping trim. This model trades up to a more powerful 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and comes standard with 4MOTION all-wheel drive with Active Control for added confidence in changing conditions.
Capability also sees a boost for the new model year. When properly equipped, the 2026 Tiguan can tow up to 1,800 pounds, an increase of 300 pounds compared to the previous year, giving drivers more flexibility for light hauling and weekend gear.

Front-wheel drive is standard, while 4MOTION all-wheel drive is available for added traction. A smooth eight-speed automatic transmission handles shifts effortlessly, and the integrated engine Start/Stop System helps maximize fuel efficiency, achieving up to an EPA-estimated 26/34/29 MPG (City/Highway/Combined).1
