  • 2012 ABT Volkswagen Tiguan

    Abt Sportline now offers full tuning program for the latest Volkswagen Tiguan. Although, the crossover has been on the market for several months, the tuner are ready with a number of modifications, which can make your vehicle unique.

    The exterior package includes ABT front grill, ABT door strip attachements, ABT rear skirt set   with exhaust system and ABT rear wing. The stance is improved by installing ABT suspension springs, which lower the vehicle. There are also different ABT designer light alloy wheels in 18” to 20” available also as complete set of wheels with sports tyres.

    The tuner provides a wide range of engine upgrades for: the 2.0 liter TDI, the 1.4 liter TSI and the 2.0 liter TSI.

    The 2.0 liter TDI diesel can be boosted to 170PS and 195PS. The small 1.4 liter turbocharged petrol can develop up to 210PS. The mighty 2.0 liter TSI can produce either 210PS or whopping 250PS. Really an impressive results.

    The new Tiguan is part of the SUV family of ABT – and like the Touareg, the Q7 and the Q5, as well as the Q3 which is currently still in the starting blocks, the driver can look forward to the fact that his/her car can do a bit more.
