Volkswagen Tiguan - Cross-breeding at its best
Hezeri Samsuri - Monday, 05 January 2009

WHAT do you get when you cross a tiger with an iguana?

Sounds like a biological disaster but actually, that is what Tiguan means.

According to Wikipedia, the Volkswagen Tiguan got its name from the German word for tiger and leguan, which means iguana.

Built to compete with the Honda CR-V and Toyota Rav-4, that concept does not make sense as Volkswagen gets a premium status here (plus the fact that VW cars are taxed a lot higher than its Japanese brethrens).
