Volkswagen’s global strategy has led to a holographic lineup of vehicles, changing names and designs depending on your location. The upcoming 2025 Tiguan for North America is also the second-generation Tayron, adding layers of complexity to the brand’s SUV offerings.

Caught for the first time by spy photographers, the new model is a seven-seat compact crossover, longer than the current European Tiguan and shorter than the Atlas. In Europe, it will no longer be known as the Tiguan Allspace; instead, it will adopt the name Tayron, originally used in China to differentiate it from the shorter five-seat variant.

VW’s SUV strategy mirrors its approach in offering similar-sized sedans and electric vehicles through different joint ventures in China. The new Tiguan also known as Tayron, aims for a slightly boxier design, distinguishing it from the Tiguan L, with a longer rear overhang and a more upright tailgate design.

Although interior details remain undisclosed, the American Tiguan is expected to feature a cockpit similar to its European counterpart, boasting a large tablet touchscreen and support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Powertrain and pricing

The 2025 Tiguan will be based on the MQB Evo platform. European buyers might expect powertrain options similar to the smaller Tiguan, including PHEVs, diesel, and 1.5-liter turbocharged mild-hybrid gasoline engines.

North American variants could feature a 2.0-liter turbocharged, four-cylinder engine with 48-volt hybrid assistance and a mandatory seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, potentially offering plug-in hybrid options.

While the exact release date remains unclear, VW anticipates the models to hit the market as 2025 vehicles, hinting at a debut within the year. Pricing is expected to be in line with the current Tiguan, starting at $28,880, with higher trims surpassing $40,000.

VW enthusiasts eagerly await the unveiling of the 2025 Tiguan/Tayron twins, representing the brand’s global adaptability in the competitive SUV market.
