Whatever you call it, it has more zoot than the non-caffeinated Tiguan. If you want the extra get-up-and-go on the Tiguan, you'll note that this will be the top trim for the lineup. You'll also have to wait -- it's a 2026 model-year vehicle. This Tiggy takes the 2025 redesign and adds 67 horsepower to the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. That brings it up to 268 ponies at 5,500 RPM, while torque takes a jump from 207 lb-ft to 258 lb-ft of twist.

NEW! by Tim Healey (IC: employee) Stellantis says it's not selling Maserati. That's fine, but the brand is struggling. Whether that's the fault of Stellantis or outside factors, or both, could be the focus of a QOTD. But today I am asking -- should Stellantis remain the rightful owner? Or should it sell Maserati to another corporate parent? If so, who? That's a pretty straightforward QOTD, so there's not much need for more preamble.
