What Is the Volkswagen ID. Tiguan?
The ID. Tiguan is Volkswagen’s new all-electric mid-size SUV. In Europe it succeeds both the ID.4 and the ID.5, two models with more than 950,000 units built, and it borrows its name from the Tiguan, Volkswagen’s best-selling model worldwide. It uses Volkswagen’s MEB+ electric architecture and is built in Emden, Germany, for the European market, where it launches in early 2027 alongside the gas, diesel and hybrid Tiguan.
The design is new from end to end. Volkswagen’s “Pure Positive” design language trades the softer crossover look of the ID.4 and ID.5 for a powerful SUV design with a strong visual presence, precise lines and tightly sculpted surfaces. Classic pull-style door handles also return.
For Denver drivers, the details worth watching are the 4MOTION all-wheel-drive version for snowy commutes and mountain weekends, towing capacity of up to 2,000 kg in European form, and a front trunk for stashing the charging cable. Whether those carry over to a US model is still to be confirmed.

Actual range varies with driving style, speed, use of comfort features, outside temperature, load and topography. US specifications have not been announced.
A Cabin From the Class Above
Volkswagen says the ID. Tiguan’s interior takes a big step up in material quality, with an all-new display layout and a return to physical controls where you expect them.
- 10-inch Digital Cockpit driver display
- 15-inch central infotainment display
- 12-inch co-driver display (optional) with privacy mode: the passenger can stream, browse or game without the screen being visible to the driver, and listen through paired Bluetooth headphones
- Physical buttons for climate (a button bar in the center console) and on the steering wheel, plus a center-console controller for volume and station or track
- Two Qi2 wireless charging pads (optional) with magnetic rings that hold compatible phones in place
New “Retro” Displays
Press the View button on the steering wheel and the Digital Cockpit switches to the blue-and-red gauges of a Golf IV: a classic speedometer on the left and, on the right, a stylized dial that shows the drive system’s power flow instead of engine speed.
The matching Retro view on the center screen can be personalized, with six Volkswagen classics to choose from in a virtual garage: Golf I, Golf II Country, Golf IV, Tiguan I, Race Touareg and Beetle.
A Front Trunk, Finally
The ID. Tiguan adds a 32-liter frunk under the hood, a handy spot for the charging cable, on top of a luggage compartment of up to 534 liters.
Equipment described is for the European ID. Tiguan; “optional” means optional equipment in Europe. US equipment and safety ratings have not been announced.
What Changes From the ID.4
Volkswagen hasn’t published US specifications for the ID. Tiguan, so a number-for-number comparison with the US ID.4 isn’t possible yet. Based on the European car, here is what’s new:
- A new name and a new, more SUV-like exterior design, with classic pull-style door handles
- A redesigned cockpit: 10-inch driver display, 15-inch infotainment screen and an available 12-inch co-driver display
- Physical buttons back for climate, steering-wheel functions and audio
- Retro display modes with classic Volkswagen gauges
- A 32-liter front trunk
- Standard one-pedal driving and an available Connected Travel Assist with traffic light recognition
- Volkswagen’s updated MEB+ electric architecture
