Great, Sometimes Unfairly-maligned? Compact SUV

S&L'83, 05/02/2024
2024 Volkswagen Tiguan
I’m 64 years old. My wife and I have bought or leased a lot of vehicles over the years - Acura’s, Toyota’s, Honda’s, VW’s, Audi’s, Ford’s and GM. My last few cars were Audi sedans (45TFSI, 261 HP, 273 lb.-ft. torque, 3,700 lb. curb weight). I really enjoyed the Audi’s as they were efficient and fun to drive on our twisting, hilly rural roads, but we wanted to get a non-luxury compact … SUV this time. Of all the options, I liked the styling of the Tiguan best, but was concerned about acceleration based on some of the reviews and videos I had seen, the engine specs: 184 HP, 221 lb.-ft. torque, and the 4,000 lb. weight relative to what I was used to. I test-drove one though and was really OK with the performance so wondered if I was missing something or getting senile, so decided to test further. We like Honda’s - my wife drives a Ridgeline, so I test-drove the CR-V Hybrid Sport Touring. It was solid, but I wasn’t crazy about how it drove with the CVT even with the addition of the electric motors. I drove the Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Limited and liked it better than the CR-V, but it didn’t seem to me to drive as good as the VW and it cost more (as did the CR-V) which I know is probably moot once the fuel savings are factored in. I crossed the Mazda CX-50 Turbo off the list based on concerns about seat and ride comfort, cabin noise and cost. Volkswagen reliability is a concern for some, but we’ve had a Passat, a couple of CC’s and Jetta’s and the quality has been very good, as has Audi’s; plus we’re leasing. Anyway, we decided to go with the Tiguan. It’s only been a month, but we are very happy with the decision. As for performance, we’ve driven it on interstate highways, two-lane highways, back roads, and in small towns, and have been thoroughly enjoying it. As other reviewers have noted, the secret is keeping your foot out of it - there is more than enough torque with a light, linear touch on the gas pedal. When I’ve needed to “punch it” (passing on hills for example), I simply pull the shifter down from Drive to Sport and have had the power I’ve needed. It is annoying though that VW offers European customers better power-plants than they do in the US. The steering and braking are good enough. The handling is composed and actually fun. Car and Driver describes the performance as “athletic if not breath-taking”, which I think is accurate. We like the appearance inside and out. It is roomy, the seats are comfortable (and supportive in hard turns), and the panoramic sunroof is a great feature. It is easier to get in and out of than the A4 which is a big help when chauffeuring our elderly mothers or grandchildren around. The reclining back seats are a plus. I’ve seen some complaints about the steering wheel, HVAC, and infotainment controls, and again fail to see the problem. They all work well and in some cases better than others I’ve used - swiping the volume on the steering wheel for example. I do miss paddle shifters (primarily to downshift) but am getting used to just using the shift lever instead. The engine sound is not all that refined - somewhat reminiscent of an old Beetle. The cabin is quiet though and does a great job of isolating road and wind noise; and the Fender audio system is very good - at least compared to what we are used to. The gas mileage has been better than advertised with regular to aggressive driving. The other day I drove 64 miles in ‘normal” mode on secondary roads and the trip computer showed 32 MPG. The ride quality is good. The headlights are the best I’ve ever experienced. The key fob isn’t great, but functional. The VW phone app is handy, as is the hands-free trunk lid feature. All-in-all, I recommend the Tiguan SEL R-Line, especially if you enjoy driving.
