Volkswagen Australia has increased the pricing of its Tiguan SUV by up to $840.

All 110TSI and 132TSI variants are now $340 dearer, while their 162TSI counterparts have copped the full price rise.

As such, the Mazda CX-5-rivalling Tiguan range now kicks off at $34,490 plus on-road costs for the five-seat 110TSI Trendline, rising to $52,490 for the seven-seat Allspace 162TSI Highline (see full pricing table below).

No changes have been made to standard specification, with a Volkswagen Australia spokesperson telling CarsGuide the pricing adjustments were made due to exchange-rate pressures.

As before, 110TSI variants are motivated by a 110kW/250Nm 1.4-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder engine, which is mated to a six-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission that exclusively sends drive to the front wheels.

132TSI variants upgrade to a 132kW/320Nm 2.0-litre unit that teams a seven-speed DSG with Volkswagen’s 4Motion all-wheel-drive system, while their 162TSI counterparts increase this combination’s outputs to 162kW/350Nm.

Buyers are offered two seating options, with the standard-wheelbase Tiguan providing room for five occupants, while its long-wheelbase Allspace counterpart has an extra pair of pews (and additional boot space).

Justin’s dad chose to miss his birth because he wanted to watch Peter Brock hopefully win Bathurst, so it figures Justin grew up to have a car obsession, too – and don’t worry, his dad did turn up in time after some stern words from his mum. That said, despite loving cars and writing, Justin chose to pursue career paths that didn’t lend themselves to automotive journalism, before eventually ending up working as a computer technician. But that car itch just couldn’t be scratched by his chipped Volkswagen Golf R (Mk7), so he finally decided to give into the inevitable and study a Master of Journalism at the same time. And even with the long odds, Justin was lucky enough to land a full-time job as a motoring journalist soon after graduating and the rest, as they say, is history. These days, Justin happily finds himself working at CarsGuide during the biggest period of change yet for the automotive industry, which is perhaps the most exciting part of all. In case you’re wondering, Justin begrudgingly sold the Golf R (sans chip) and still has plans to buy his dream car, an E46 BMW M3 coupe (manual, of course), but he is in desperate need of a second car space – or maybe a third.
