Volkswagen is turning up the style for the holiday season with the introduction of new Black Edition trims for its popular T-Cross and Tiguan SUVs. These sleek additions, available for order from 12 December, elevate the already impressive R-Line trims with a striking aesthetic and enhanced features.
Black Edition Highlights
Both the T-Cross and Tiguan Black Editions sport exclusive black styling elements, including York alloy wheels—18-inch for the T-Cross and 20-inch for the Tiguan. The vehicles also feature IQ.LIGHT matrix headlamps capable of illuminating up to 500 meters ahead, complemented by LED tail lights with dynamic turn signals.
The Tiguan Black Edition adds a driver assistance package with safety-enhancing technologies such as Lane Assist and Emergency Assist. Meanwhile, T-Cross Black Edition buyers can enjoy the Pure White paint option at no additional cost.

- T-Cross Black Edition: Offers two petrol engines: a 1.5 TSI 115 PS with manual or DSG transmission, and a 1.5 TSI 150 PS with DSG.
- Tiguan Black Edition: Comes with two 2.0 TSI engines, both paired with DSG and 4MOTION all-wheel drive—a robust 265 PS variant and a 204 PS version, newly introduced to the UK market.
