Power and Precision Coming Soon in the 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line Turbo

The Volkswagen Tiguan has long been one of the most versatile compact SUVs on the road: stylish, spacious, and tech-savvy. But with the arrival of the 2026 Tiguan SEL R-Line Turbo, Volkswagen is turning up the heat. This all-new top trim doesn’t just carry the bold redesign of the third-generation Tiguan, it packs an upgraded 268-horsepower turbocharged engine that transforms it into a true performance player in the compact SUV class.

Availability and pricing coming this fall to Fiore Volkswagen in Hollidaysburg, PA. The Tiguan SEL R-Line Turbo is built for drivers who want it all: strength, sophistication, and everyday practicality.

More Power, More Fun

At the heart of the Tiguan SEL R-Line Turbo lies a 2.0-liter EA888 turbo four-cylinder that’s been reengineered with a larger turbocharger, stronger pistons, and performance-focused internals. The result? 258 lb-ft of torque. That’s 67 more horses and 51 more pound-feet than the standard Tiguan engine.

With its 8-speed automatic transmission, paddle shifters, and standard 4Motion® all-wheel drive, the Tiguan Turbo brings real confidence to every commute, backroad drive, or snowy Pennsylvania winter morning. And thanks to Volkswagen’s efficiency-focused engineering, you get all that extra oomph without leaving fuel economy behind.

A Striking Design That Commands Attention

The third-generation Tiguan already turned heads with its bold new styling, and the SEL R-Line Turbo takes it further. Signature features include:

• LED light bar and illuminated VW logo front and rear for a distinctive light signature
  
• Sport-inspired profile with a powerful shoulder line and extended spoiler
  
• 20-inch alloy wheels standard
  
• Exclusive black roof for added contrast
  
• New color options, including Monterey Blue Pearl, Sandstone Uni, and the standout Avocado Green Pearl
  

The look is athletic yet refined, a perfect match for the Tiguan’s elevated performance.

Inside: Premium, Connected, and Comfort-Driven

Step inside the Tiguan SEL R-Line Turbo and you’ll find one of the most luxurious cabins Volkswagen has ever put in a compact SUV. Highlights include:

• Varenna quilted leather seating with heating, ventilation, and 10-point massage
