The new Volkswagen Tiguan reflects a model range update without breaking the company's traditions. It is the most desirable car for Volkswagen fans worldwide. But does it justify its price? Below we go through the specs and trim levels, and explain how the car handles on the highway and in the city. We will also show how to get a car on lease so you do not have to pay the full price upfront.
The main thing that sets the new Volkswagen Tiguan apart is the updated MQB evo platform. The manufacturer kept the family SUV concept but updated the electronics, chassis tuning and power output. Drivers can choose between two options: a diesel and a powerful petrol engine. All three versions are available in Ukraine. Each of them comes with an automatic DSG gearbox. The main specs of each model:
The manufacturer has also introduced the eHybrid plug-in hybrid. It charges from an external source. The car is more powerful than most hybrids thanks to a high-voltage lithium-ion battery and an electric motor integrated directly into the gearbox.
Depending on the version, the new Volkswagen Tiguan can have front-wheel drive or 4MOTION all-wheel drive. All-wheel-drive versions are traditionally suited to various weather conditions. They offer improved stability on difficult road sections, though this does not remove the need for winter tires.
In the city, the third-generation Volkswagen Tiguan shows high maneuverability. In versions for Ukraine, the manufacturer offers ground clearance of 169 mm for confident driving over problem road sections. The suspension works smoothly over uneven surfaces. The DSG gearbox provides a comfortable ride without jerks.
On the highway, the Tiguan also feels confident. It stays stable and handles corners well. The robotized DSG transmission does not lag when speed changes. At constant speed and steady traffic, fuel consumption drops noticeably. All models have decent sound insulation on flat, smooth surfaces.
Most drivers see practicality as the main advantage of the Volkswagen Tiguan – it is powerful and has a large cabin that is comfortable for family trips. The trunk capacity in some versions is 652 L thanks to the folding rear seatbacks. That is enough to carry:
Opinions on the multimedia system are divided. Some users find the touch controls not always convenient. Other drivers praise the fast smartphone integration.
Most drivers are satisfied with the technical capabilities on the highway. The new Volkswagen Tiguan behaves steadily while driving, and the suspension controls body roll. Some reviews say that on coarse road surfaces the wheel arch sound insulation is not always sufficient.
