The 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan facelift is the next model in our list of upcoming cars in India. Spied testing in India without any camouflage, the 5-seater Volkswagen SUV appears more stylish than the existing model thanks to the newly-added headlamps, tweaked front bumper, and a new, chic-looking logo. Inside, the 2021 Tiguan will be packed with a host of goodies like a larger touchscreen system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless phone charger, digital instrument cluster, and connected car tech. Apart from that, it will continue to employ three-zone climate control, a panoramic sunroof, drive modes, cruise control, TPMS, and an electrically adjustable driver seat. Safety essentials will involve seven airbags, ESC, front and rear parking sensors.

Under the hood, the facelifted Volkswagen Tiguan 2021 will be powered by the 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine as seen in the Allspace. Transmission-wise, it will come mated to a 6-speed DSG, allowing the vehicle to churn out 190PS of power and 320Nm. Once launched, the Volkswagen SUV will rival the Jeep Compass, Hyundai Tucson, and the future Citroen C5 Aircross.
