Does he have a chance this time?

For several years now, Volkswagen has not had that model in the showroom that attracts customers.

Its cars are highly valued, from the Polo to the Touareg, but a big attraction - not there.

Maybe, maybe this time the story will be different when it introduces the Tiguan Allspace to the 7-seater market.

True, this is not his first entry and the start of local marketing he has already made here a few weeks ago.

But it is difficult to say that the 2.0-liter version with dual propulsion and priced at NIS 230,000 is hysterical sales potential.

Now another version of the Allspice joins him. The dimensions remain the same, but this time it comes in a slightly different propulsion format, with under the hood the power unit with a volume of 1.5 liters and the propulsion is front.



The 150 hp and 25.5 kg engine is connected to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The performance is naturally more moderate than the 2.0-liter 190 hp version and the dual propulsion. These stand at 9.6 seconds per 100 km / h (7.7 seconds at 2.0 liters) and the top speed is 200 km / h. The



AllSpace 1.5 will come in two trim levels Elegance and Elegance Plus. Both with 8-inch screen, top view, Android and Apple compatibility, wireless charging, digital dashboard, keyless propulsion, climate control split into three areas, electric trunk opening and more. The plus adds adaptive dampers, driving mode selector , Electrified, ventilated and heated front seats, leather upholstery and 19-inch rims.



In both finish levels a complete safety package.

Adaptive cruise control, automatic braking, lane departure correction, "dead zone" vehicle warning and more.

7-seater crossovers are no longer a matter of necessity.

Quite a few car fleets and tool companies like Outlander, Kodiak and the like are more a status symbol and an indication of the role of the driver in them than a statement of his contribution to demography.



And in this case, the Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace can have a very interesting card up its sleeve when it combines the usability of the 7-seater configuration with a symbol that is at least perceived as "considered" more than other popular brands.

And we are also targeting its brother for the Skoda Kodiak concern among others, but also for the Peugeot 5008 and Mitsubishi Outlander.



At prices starting at NIS 185,000 for Elegance and NIS 210,000 for Elegance Plus.

It already has pricing that is more or less in line with the others and at least in the first one a good opportunity to return to demonstrate dominance in some segment.
