Meet the 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan Limited, the latest—and likely last—edition of the first-generation Tiguan compact crossover/SUV. Priced from $22,860, the Tiguan Limited starts exactly $3000 less than the next cheapest 2017 Tiguan, the S.
The Tiguan Limited’s price drop comes courtesy of a lighter standard-features list that lacks cruise control, a proximity key with push-button start, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, a cargo cover, and roof rails. The model does include a 5.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a backup camera, and an electric parking brake.
Buyers can add those missing items back in by opting for the $1295 Premium package, which also includes a larger, 6.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system that’s compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. They also can upgrade the Limited’s standard 16-inch wheels and tires with 17-inch units for $495.
Like its 2017 Tiguan siblings, the Tiguan Limited is powered by a 200-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. It’s paired to a six-speed automatic transmission that channels power to the front wheels. All-wheel-drive is a $1975 option.

While the Tiguan Limited will initially be sold as a 2017 model, Volkswagen acknowledged that it hasn’t ruled out extending the first-generation Tiguan’s life by one more model year and selling a 2018 Tiguan Limited alongside the larger second-generation Tiguan, which starts at $26,245.
Despite their shared last name, Greg Fink is not related to Ed "Big Daddy" Roth's infamous Rat Fink. Both Finks, however, are known for their love of cars, car culture, and—strangely—monogrammed one-piece bathing suits. Greg's career in the media industry goes back more than a decade. His previous experience includes stints as an editor at publications such as U.S. News & World Report, The Huffington Post, Motor1.com, and MotorTrend.
