The 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan R has been spied carrying out performance testing on the Nürburgring, with new photos revealing more details of the powered-up version of the popular crossover car. Although its camouflage has been reduced, the Tiguan R pictured here retains some coverage on its headlights, exhaust pipes and grille, all expected to borrow cues from the new-generation Golf 8.

The Volkswagen Tiguan R, or at least a potential prototype of the rumoured hot SUV, has been spied outside the Nurburgring race track. Without even a hint of disguise, this car nearly slipped completely under the radar, but the spy photographer who took this set of pictures noted that the car was "very loud". While it wears an R-Line styling package that's available for buyers of the second-generation Tiguan, this car does feature four exhaust tips compared to the regular car's two.
