Prices slashed on popular family SUV: 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace now cheaper to take the fight to Kia Sorento, Skoda Kodiaq and Mitsubishi Outlander

Volkswagen is giving families more room for free.

The German brand has slashed the price of its seven-seat Tiguan Allspace by between $2000 and $2500 depending on the variant.

This price cut brings it in line with the five seat Tiguan SUV, effectively giving buyers seven seats for the price of five.

Australia’s new car market is shifting towards buyers with many car makers starting to offer sharp discounts as years of supply issues untangle and cost of living pressures clampdown on demand. 

The Tiguan Allspace now starts at $43,990 (before on-road costs) for the base Life variant powered by a 1.4-litre four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine that makes 110kW and 250Nm.

If you want a punchier 132kW/320 2.0-litre turbo petrol motor it’ll set you back $47,990.

The Tiguan Allspace adds a third row of seats.

Buyers wanting more oomph can choose the Allspace Elegance ($57,090) or the fully-loaded Allspace R-Line ($60,590) that use a 162kW/350Nm turbo petrol engine.

The Tiguan and Tiguan Allspace are nearing the end of their lives with replacement models arriving next year.

VW will be swapping out the Tiguan Allspace for the seven-seat Tayron at the end of 2025 and an all-new Tiguan is likely to land in showrooms this time next year.

The Tiguan Allspace will be replaced late next year.

The new Tayron is expected to be bigger than the current Allspace and more aligned with the Skoda Kodiaq.

There are no details yet on the family-hauler but expect it to use a variety of petrol engines and there is the possibility for a plug-in hybrid set-up to match the next-generation Tiguan five-seater.
