Volkswagen’s seven-seat version of its mid-sized SUV, the Tiguan Allspace, has now been updated in line with the regular five-seater, and this is our first chance to drive it on UK roads.
The Allspace gets 110mm of extra length in the wheelbase, and seven seats as standard in the UK.
The mid-life refresh is mostly about new assistance and infotainment technology, although there’s a new radiator grille with the obligatory illuminated light bar, too.
There are new adaptive matrix LED headlights and active lane keeping and blindspot monitoring systems for upper-trim versions but our entrylevel diesel Life car had none fitted.
