Vehicle details
2018 VW Tiguan SEL TDI BMT S-A with premium extras:
Performance, Engine & Transmission
2.0-litre TDI diesel engine (≈ 150 PS / ~148 bhp) with strong torque (~250 lb-ft, or ~340 Nm) for responsive driving.
“BlueMotion Technology” (BMT) features such as stop-start system, efficient cruise / coasting modes to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.
Semi-automatic or automatic gearbox (DSG or equivalent) — smooth shifts, good for both city and motorway driving.
Likely Euro 6 emissions compliance.
Exterior
Panoramic sunroof / panoramic roof — large glass roof that may open / slide, letting in extra light.
Stylish alloy wheels (often 18-inch or 19-inch “Victoria” style or similar, depending on options).
Roof rails (silver or anodised), giving extra practicality for roof boxes etc.
LED or high-quality headlights, possibly LED daytime running lights; fog lights; automatic lighting; high beam assist; possibly static cornering lights.
Tinted rear glass (from the B-pillar backwards) for privacy and sun protection.
Heated & electrically adjustable door mirrors, possibly folding; heated rear window.
Chrome / silver trim accents (window surrounds, grille, exhaust finishers etc).
Interior & Comfort
Seats: heated front seats; possibly heated rear outer seats (depending on pack). Massaging seats for driver (and sometimes front passenger) — including multiple massage settings to help comfort on long journeys.
High quality upholstery — leather or leather-cloth mix, with good finishes, comfort bolstering, lumbar adjustment etc. Some SELs have “ErgoComfort” front seats.
Multi-zone climate control (often 3-zone) so rear passengers have better control / comfort. Climate settings managed via touchscreen or control panel.
Ambient lighting / reading lights front & rear; illuminated vanity mirrors; footwell lighting.
Spacious cabin; sliding / flexible rear bench; rear seats split-folding (typically 40-20-40) so boot can expand.
Large boot capacity (≈ 615 litres with seats up; much more with seats folded). Good storage solutions: door pockets, centre console, cup holders etc.
Infotainment, Connectivity & Driver Aids
Central touchscreen infotainment / navigation system. Probably VW “Discover” / “Discover Media / Pro” with built-in navigation, map updates, plus “App-Connect” (Apple CarPlay / Android Auto) to connect your phone.
DAB radio, USB ports, Bluetooth connectivity, possibly SD card slot / AUX / premium sound system.
Driver information display (multi-function display) giving trip info, fuel consumption, navigation instructions etc.
Parking sensors front & rear; possibly rear-view camera; possibly “Park Assist” (automatic steering during parking maneuvers).
Adaptive cruise control: keeps safe distance in traffic.
Lane assist / lane-keeping, driver alert / fatigue detection, other safety systems (pre-crash / occupant protection).
