CardinaleWay Volkswagen Corona - Is the 12-inch Display Standard on the 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan in Corona, CA?
The 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan delivers a smarter daily drive for Corona, CA, and yes, a 12-inch display is standard. In practice, that means clear, high-contrast visuals for navigation, media, and vehicle systems, plus an interface that responds quickly while you commute on the 91 or head out toward the Cleveland National Forest. At CardinaleWay Volkswagen Corona, our team reviews this feature with shoppers every day because it shapes how you experience the Tiguan’s technology from the moment you start the engine.
Volkswagen designed the 2025 Tiguan to feel modern the instant you step inside. The standard 12-inch display sits at the heart of that experience, with an available 15-inch touchscreen on select trims for drivers who want even more screen real estate. Pair the screen with the Tiguan’s 201-horsepower turbocharged engine and available 4MOTION® all-wheel drive, and you have a compact family SUV that is both intuitive to use and confident on the road.
The value of a standard 12-inch display goes beyond its size. It is the foundation for your most-used features in Southern California traffic, helping you stay connected and in control without adding clutter. With IQ.DRIVE® standard, you can keep important driver assistance information front and center. Add Wireless App-Connect, VW Wi-Fi Hotspot, Wireless Charging, and Plus Speech with AI, and the Tiguan becomes a true digital companion for weekday errands and weekend trips alike.
Here is a quick look at how the standard display supports the tech you will use most around Corona.
- Wireless App-Connect: Mirror select smartphone apps with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto without plugging in, so your go-to navigation and playlists are always within easy reach.
- VW Wi-Fi Hotspot: Provide on-the-go internet for passengers when you add a data plan, ideal for family devices on the 71 or 15.
- Plus Speech with AI: Use natural voice requests for route guidance, music selection, and useful information to reduce distraction.
- IQ.DRIVE® status: View prompts and settings for driver assistance features so you understand what the system is seeing and doing.
- Media and phone controls: Tap into streaming, calls, and quick-contact access with clean, glanceable tiles that keep your eyes on the road.
These features bring clarity to your day-to-day driving. Because the interface is consistent across trims, the learning curve is short — you settle in, set your preferences, and go. And since the Tiguan’s design emphasizes everyday peace of mind, the screen works alongside standard safety equipment like 10 airbags and the included 5-year Car-Net® Safe and Secure plan to help you feel supported from every angle.
