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.

Not a refined vehicle

Pros: Nice riding and handling vehicle. Looks good on the outside. Cons: infotainment system is a train wreck and VW knows it. Interior is the land of cheap plastic. Engine isn’t smooth, sounds raspy and is slow!! My adaptive headlights don’t work. VW service hasn’t been great. Suggest Kia, Hyundai or Mazda.

Love my new 2022 Tiguan - got R line due to its seats and all the tech. It’s a very nice ride - drove it on long trips and love all the auto driving features. - Interior is very nice - Spacious without being bulky and hard to maneuver - Enough power - Very good cruise control and lane keeping assist (I use lane keeping all the time with this, including around town) - Incredible sound system The only thing about this car is lack of CVT transmission and hybrid drive terrain - so its transmission feels very jerky for in town driving (which makes driving it in town with frequent stops and traffic very annoying). And gas mileage leaves me wanting many more mpgs.

Shockingly this SUV the VW Tiguan SEL R-Line 4motion has all the bells & whistles (no 3rd row). No complaints for what I have and it looks great too.

Underwhelming

The 2022 VW Tiguan SEL R Line disappoints on so many levels. The engine is anemic and its pairing with the transmission is unrefined. The ride and handling are barely adequate. A top of the trim level, which the SEL-R Line represents, should have better interior materials and the ambient lighting feature also falls short. There are quite a few, less expensive vehicles, which are far more desirable. I can’t wait to rid myself of the worst vehicle I have ever owned.
