VW Tiguan: Baby Touareg shapes up!

Here are some fresh spy shots of the VW Tiguan.

Look out Land Rover - VW is stalking your new Freelander! These are the best pictures yet of the firm's first entry into the compact SUV market, the Tiguan.

And don't be fooled by the comical badge on the grille - we caught this model undergoing final development in Europe. The shots reveal how the styling is influenced by its Touareg big brother.

However, a rakish stance gives the new SUV a sportier look. And behind the disguise lies a much bolder face, derived from the Concept-A show car seen at the Geneva expo in March.
