VW TIGUAN R-Line 1.5 TSi eHybrid DSG.5dr

The VW TIGUAN R-Line 1.5 TSi eHybrid 5dr DSG is a third-generation plug-in hybrid (PHEV) SUV introduced for the 2024 model year, praised for its long electric range and practicality. The R-Line trim provides a sporty aesthetic and generous equipment, but this can lead to a firmer ride than on other trim levels.
