    Volkswagen Tiguan R Spied Testing In The Snow

    The Tiguan R has been seen testing for quite some time now but now that the reveal of the facelift is imminent it seems we may actually get a high-performance compact crossover from Volkswagen.

    A new batch of spy shots from Sweden has surfaced not only showing that it is the facelifted variant but also appears to show that the production version of the Tiguan R will join the refreshed model lineup.

    From the front you may not find the VW SUV too interesting but take a glance at the rear and you will notice the lovely quad exhaust system. In addition, the front discs rotors are drilled hugged by blue brake calipers. There’s also some deceiving camouflage upfront to conceal the generous intakes feeding air to the uprated engine.

    So what will be powering this then? Apparently VW did some tests at the beginning with the 2.5-litre five-cylinder mill found in the RS Q3. However, rumors indicate the actual production version will have the familiar 2.0-liter TSI four-pot linked to a 4Motion all-wheel-drive system and a DSG transmission.

    Based on the above assumption, it should produce about 330 hp (246 kW) which means it will comfortably eclipse the T-Roc R (296 hp; 221 kW).

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
