Great suv

I test drove numerous SUVs, Nissan Honda, Toyota, Hyundai, etc. none of them have the acceleration or handling like the Volkswagen Tiguan. I have the SE model with all the options, rain sensing wipers, heated seats, rear camera, rear sensors, front crash protection, Blindspot, monitor, leather seats, etc. handles great and is torquey. Gets excellent gas mileage I’ve gotten over 30 miles per gallon on the highway. This is my third Tiguan and never had any issues with them.

Good all-arounder

Handling and pep of a car, versatility of an SUV/wagon. I originally wanted a Golf, but for the price this made much more sense. The car seems well-built, relatively efficient and practical. It handles so well, even friends I have let drive it are impressed. I have only a couple of gripes - one is the constant “eco tips” that occupy digital dash while driving. Also, the towing capacity is pathetic for what it is. Every other SUV of this class can tow 2000+, Tiguan can only tow 1500 lbs. I tow a small trailer from time to time and have now have to be extra conscious of the weight. Everything else is great.

Very happy with the Tiguan

I traded in my 2020 Mazda CX-5 primarily due to concerns over the faulty electrical system. And I’m glad I did. The Tiguan is much better appointed, drives better, accelerates faster, and just overall feels better to be in. The third row is kind of pointless but good for my dog, she doesn’t complain about being cramped. Overall, I think this was the right choice for our family.

Excellent Choice for a Family of 3

We purchased a 2022 Tiguan because our Jetta was getting too small for our 5 year old. It was a fantastic choice. We love all of the safety features and the drive assist features. We also love the roominess of the car. Our favorite feature is the wide open moon roof. All in all is a great small SUV. The only thing that I wish they would have done is offered a bigger engine with more power. It will do what you need it to do, but It is not the best at accelerating.

Poor to Bad smooth acceleration

The vehicle looks great, but after driving it for 14 miles I find the acceleration jerky, sometime slow to engage. I have on occasion not always depressed the gas pedal slightly to pull out into traffic and the pedal keep going down with no response and then all of a sudden the turbo kicks in and your off to the races. That is scary and dangerous. I brought the car back and I was told by sales it is common and would work it's way out. The Service Advisor tells me 7 days later when I bring it in for Service that it can't be fixed it's normal for the Tiguan. Turbo Lag, Save your self the financial loss and the irritability and buy a different car.
