VW Tiguan X Debuts In China With Coupe-Like Styling
Meet the Tiguan X, the swoopier sibling to the standard Tiguan. Volkswagen took the wraps off the model at the Beijing Motor Show in China.

If positioned to avoid sales cannibalism on Atlas Cross Sport sales, we see few reasons not to bring this slick-looking crossover to our shores as a Tiguan Cross Sport. Nevertheless, should Volkswagen decide to ship the Tiguan X our way, the bra...
