With more than 6 million built so far, and 910,000 of those produced just in 2019, the Tiguan is one of Volkswagen’s most successful models. So it’s understandable that the German behemoth chose to keep updates to the 2022 model mild and subtle. Keeping things fresh is a new wider grille, which blends seamlessly into the LED headlights. The bumpers have also been tweaked.
