  • Page 10: Body

    Body Body structure The Tiguan body is based on the Passat body concept at the front end and in the middle underbody areas. The Golf concept has been used at the rear. The structure is a completely new development. The main focus in the design was placed on comfort and crash performance without neglecting lightweight construction.
  • Page 11 Steel panels (< 140MPa) High-strength plates (180-220MPa) High-strength plates (240-420MPa) Highest-strength sheets, die-quenched ( > 1000MPa ) B-pillar The special feature of the B-pillar is that it is made from one part, but has two rigidity zones. The upper part has a very high strength for extreme loads due to partial die-quenching.
  • Page 12 Body New body features Front bumper versions Two different bumpers can be fitted on the Tiguan. Depending on the equipment version, there is an on-road bumper optimised for road use and an off-road bumper optimised for driving on uneven terrain. The off-road bumper has a greater approach angle allowing large obstacles and steep banks to be tackled on uneven terrain without damaging the front end.

    Transmission Four-wheel drive coupling generation IV In principle, power is transmitted via the clutch plate set on the fourth generation of the four-wheel drive coupling in the same way as the previous Haldex models. The pressure being built up with an electric pump is a new feature. The four-wheel drive control unit J492 determines the torque to be transferred by controlling the coupling opening control valve N373.

  • Page 24: Chassis

    Chassis Overview of chassis The Tiguan chassis combines typical car driving properties on the road with very good off-road capabilities. This very high requirement for a chassis was fulfilled by further developing and utilising the existing chassis components from the Golf and Passat.

  • Page 26: Front Axle

    Chassis Front axle The front axle uses a McPherson concept with lower wishbones and spring struts. The subframe and the wishbones are made from aluminium. There are six connection points between the subframe and body. This makes the body extremely stiff. S404_025 Rebound bump-stop dampers The all-new struts on the front axle have plastic...

  • Page 27: Rear Axle

    Rear axle The rear axle of the Tiguan is based on the four-link 4Motion rear axle from the Passat. The aluminium subframe has been replaced with a weight-optimised new development made from high-strength steels. Furthermore new wheel dampers are used. They have a greater oil volume. This prevents the damper oil becoming too hot during off-road usage.
  • Page 28 Chassis Electromechanical steering with axis-parallel drive An electromechanical steering system with a belt-driven recirculating-ball gearbox and electric motor mounted parallel to the axis is being used for the time on the Tiguan (left-hand drive only). This new development allows jolt- free and very sensitive, precise and powerful steering.
