bought a Volkswagen Tiguan with a budget of less than 150,000 yuan, and the last time I remember it was six years ago, that is, when the Tiguan classic was discontinued in 2019; At that time, the Volkswagen Tiguan gave a large discount for the inventory of old cars, and the version that used to cost 200,000 yuan was only 130,000 yuan in the final stage.
However, after the inventory of the old model is cleared, the price of the new Volkswagen Tiguan L is still relatively high, which makes many prospective car owners sigh; However, the current low-cost Tiguan is back, and SAIC Volkswagen has launched the "2024 Outstanding Edition", with a limited-time price of only 149,900 yuan! The original price was 186,800 yuan, which was equivalent to a drop of 37,000 yuan.
This is a preferential plan launched by the brand, and there is no need to bother to bargain with the store.
Let's talk about the discounts
The price adjustment of the Volkswagen Tiguan L looks attractive, but there are some regional stores that actually have higher terminal discounts.
Referring to the figure below, the maximum discount margin of the outstanding model is shown as 47,000 yuan.
Even if calculated according to the range of 47,000 yuan, it is more than 10,000 yuan lower than the starting price for a limited time, but this price does not seem to be the lowest price, comprehensive price information of secondary dealers or auto trade channels, a small number of Tiguan L with a higher library age under the premise of buying a car in installments, the highest preferential range has exceeded 60,000 yuan! The actual threshold price has been on par with the Passat or Magotan, that is, it has reached the 120,000 level, of course, these cars will always have some small flaws, or for the high age of the warehouse, or a slight scratch, or require a long installment to bear high interest.
However, it is also an objective fact that the preferential range of the store terminal exceeds the preferential range of the starting price for a limited time, so the price adjustment plan does not seem to be very sincere.
Comparison of old and new models
The Volkswagen Tiguan L is already an old model, as the Tiguan L Pro series is already on the market.
The Pro series still uses the MQB platform and uses the same 2.0T engine as the old model, and the transmission is of course a seven-speed wet dual-clutch, and the difference in the product line is mainly the cancellation of the small displacement version;
The relationship between the current Tiguan L and Tiguan L Pro is like that of the Volkswagen Tiguan and Tiguan L in the past, and whether to choose an outstanding model is only up to you.
Interpretation of the transmission:
The outstanding model is equipped with a 1.5-liter engine with a power of 118kW/250Nm, and the transmission matched with it is not a DQ200, but a seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission.
Volkswagen cars that used to use small-displacement turbocharged engines generally used the DQ200 transmission, which is the lowest manufacturing cost dry dual-clutch transmission, but the Volkswagen Tiguan L uses a wet clutch, which is far more reliable than a dry clutch. And the replacement versions of the Passat and Magotan have also upgraded the transmission type, and it seems that Volkswagen is also starting to upgrade its products.
After determining the type of transmission, the Volkswagen Tiguan L outstanding model priced at 149,800 yuan has no hard problems, except that the power is slightly worse, and the acceleration of 100 kilometers is measured in ten seconds.
The configuration level is decent, qualified as a scooter.
