Volkswagen Tiguan R Line – Pre Bookings Now Open Ahead of Next Month’s Launch

Published On:

Volkswagen India has officially kicked off pre-bookings for the much-anticipated Tiguan R-Line, setting the stage for its full reveal and price announcement on 14 April 2025. This new, sportier version of the Tiguan SUV marks an exciting new chapter in the brand’s India journey, promising more performance, sharper styling, and a packed feature list.

Bookings

Customers can now pre-book the 2025 Tiguan R-Line via Volkswagen’s official website or by visiting authorised dealerships across the country. With the official launch just weeks away, this early booking window gives eager buyers a chance to get ahead of the curve.

Engine

Under the hood, the new Tiguan R-Line will be powered by a 2.0-litre, TSI turbocharged petrol engine. While exact output figures for the India-spec model haven’t been reconfirmed, earlier reports suggest it will deliver 201bhp and 320Nm of torque. Paired with Volkswagen’s 4Motion all-wheel-drive system, the R-Line promises not only more style but more grip and go as well.

Variant

Volkswagen is expected to offer the Tiguan R-Line in a single, fully loaded variant. This means customers can look forward to a generous equipment list, likely including premium upholstery, large touchscreen infotainment, digital cockpit, panoramic sunroof, ADAS tech, and much more—all bundled in a sleek, performance-inspired design package.

Colours

The R-Line version of the Tiguan will be available in six striking colour options, adding more flair to its sporty appeal. While the full list of exterior shades hasn’t been detailed in this release, we already know that the palette will include premium and eye-catching finishes.

Dimensions

As for size, the Tiguan R-Line measures 4,539mm in length, 1,859mm in width, and 1,656mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,680mm. This translates to a balanced profile with ample cabin room and road presence—perfect for urban as well as highway adventures.

Golf

Alongside the Tiguan R-Line, Volkswagen has also opened expressions of interest for the return of a true icon—the Golf GTI. This hot hatch, scheduled to launch by the end of Q2 2025, will be sold exclusively through Volkswagen’s online sales platform. Although details are still under wraps, the GTI is expected to arrive in the Mk8.5 avatar with a 2.0-litre TSI engine and a digital-first buying experience.

Official Statement

Speaking about the launch, Ashish Gupta, Brand Director of Volkswagen India, said, “This year, we are introducing two of the most iconic Volkswagen models to India. The entry of the all-new Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line marks a new chapter in the journey of our progress in India.” He added that the Tiguan R-Line represents sharper performance, bigger space, and stronger safety, all in one head-turning package.

Gupta also highlighted the excitement around the Golf GTI’s return, calling it a legend that needs no introduction. The company is now inviting interested buyers to express their interest online, further signaling Volkswagen’s push toward digital engagement.
