Volkswagen R-line

Volkswagen is in the midst of developing some fresh new models as a part of its performance-oriented ‘R-line’ range, but as yet not all of these models have been confirmed for sale in the U.S. However, VW is considering whether or not it’s worth adding the Tiguan R-Line, as well as certain other R-Line models to the U.S. VW’s R-line includes many different exterior and interior accessories for owners who want to customize their cars. Until recently, the “R” label was appropriated for high-performance cars such as the Golf R32 or the new Passat R36. But now the rest of the VW range can get that sporty look and feel without the related costs of more expensive R models.

R-Line models are fabricated by VW’s ‘Individual’ branch’ which is a team of designers and engineers that concentrate on making special models. In the case of the Tiguan R-Line, which should be arriving in certain European markets within the next few months, the R-Line variant will sport a front splitter, larger wheels and a small rear spoiler, as well as a custom sports steering wheel and a handful of ‘R’ logos.
