Volkswagen Tiguan Features
The Volkswagen Tiguan is a compact SUV that has done well for VW. It surely stands out with its generous cargo space, 5 to 7 seating capacity, and is one of the few SUVs of its caliber to offer 3rd-row seating. The first two rows have plenty of room and are suitable for adults, while the third row is limited in space, making it optimal for kids.
The front-wheel-drive Tiguan comes with a seating capacity for up to seven occupants in three rows, while the all-wheel-drive option accommodating five riders in two rows.
Engine and Performance
Its turbocharged 2L four-cylinder engine with an eight-speed automatic transmission is fairly capable, generating up to 184 horsepower. The Tiguan possesses a towing capacity of up to 1,500 pounds across Chatham. The drivetrain is available in either front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive.
Interior and Technology
Even though the interior is simple, the Volkswagen quality is still maintained. The Tiguan is fitted with a user-friendly infotainment system with both touch and physical controls for entertainment. The touch screen contains responsive menus.
Safety Features
The safety and driver assistant tools are what you'd expect from SUVs of this caliber. A variety of safety features come standard. These include; blind-spot monitoring, rearview camera, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and a pedestrian detection system.
Trim Options
The Volkswagen Tiguan is offered in five trim levels: S, SE, SE R-Line Black, SEL, and SEL Premium R-Line. All these trims bar the Premium R-Line are powered with a front-wheel drive. Therefore, when choosing a Tiguan trim, a powertrain is rarely a deal-breaker, but other features and convenience are. The base S and mid-range SE models receive new 17-inch wheel designs that were absent from the previous models.
When compared to its competitors, such as the Honda CR-V and Mazda CX5, the Tiguan has proved to be better. The Tiguan is a good option for people in need of large storage space in a medium SUV. They could occasionally make some good use of the third seating row. The cargo area is wide and deep. This SUV also prioritizes comfort over speed, something the majority of customers have appreciated.
