When first spied, it was actually believed that the Tiguan R will make use of a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, probably lifted straight out of the Golf GTI.

However, this prototype seems like it offers the 2.5-liter five-cylinder of the RS3 and TT RS under the hood, exposing that Volkswagen is not messing all around with the SUV. As an issue of fact, it even has the exact same oval-shaped tailpipes as the RS3.
