2023, S FWD base model: Ok, 450 mi thus far. Gave 4 stars just cuz not had it long enough. Smooth acceleration-from stopped? Not really. As others said, somewhat quirky, turbo kicks in when stomp on gas. That said, I drive 'conservatively', smooth accel, but am not a hyper miler either. I just got avg 40.2 mpg on a h/w trip, all around avg is 36.4 right now. The 8 spd Japan trans seems to work well, don't really feel it shift. If you drive your 'normal' way [me, conservative] you may like it. It's a turbo [lag] NOT a supercharger [no lag] so realize that! Cargo storage: Not bad - it IS a lower hatch opening and floor to ceiling height than a RAV4 that I traded -wanted to fit trash barrels so you need a barrel that's MAX 28", in the hatch middle, with the 3rd row seats down, so as to fit under the 'opening', once in, the height gets a bit taller. [bought 27" barrels - rubbermaid. Think are 26 gal. Overall: I knew going in it IS the BASE Model after all so wasn't expecting the world. Looks great - very surprised it came w/nice Alloy Wheels! Would recomm it right now. Will update soon. UPDATE: The turbo seems most useful when you're at 30mph and above -give a little extra gas and kicks in - much smoother than standing start due to the first 3 gears are quite low so you get gear change AND turbo kick in. And again avg'ed 36.3 mpg this time. Also, odd one but know when you bring your wipers up to clean the rubber blades or for ice/snow? Don't, try to, you'll scratch the hood edge! You CAN'T lift them unless the wipers are in "Service Mode", a 'vertical' setting using the wiper 'stalk' [talked of in manual, have not tried yet]. More later.

I found this car better among Rav4, CRV, and CX5 in terms of acceleration, sleekness, power and beauty. The gas consumption is slightly more than any of the competitors.

I've only ever driven Toyotas and Hondas, with a few Peugeots, Nissans, and Fords thrown in. I played it safe with my car choices. But I love driving, and I've never really enjoyed any of those cars. I bought a Tiguan 24 S model, and I love it! It's such a great value for the money. I was hesitant to buy a VW because of the reviews, but I wish I had done it sooner. I've put a little over 6,000 miles on it, and I haven't had any problems at all. The only thing is that the turbo lags a bit. Update. Since then Dealership had recalls on Start Stop software update and that's it. The vehicle runs well and no issue at all. Am enjoying it.

Atrocious oil consumption after 20,000 miles

2023 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

The car is beautiful. The interior is also gorgeous with all the bells and whistles. However, from day one the infotainment system has been buggy, the acceleration is severely lacking, and my biggest issue is one that showed up after 20,000 miles. We got an oil change at 20k, 10,000 synthetic oil, pretty standard. At 25k we received a notification of low oil. Put almost a quart in because the oil wasn’t even on the dipstick anymore. Good to go. 28,000 miles, another low indicator of oil and added another quart. Take it to vw and are told that it is normal for their cars to burn 1 quart every 1200 miles. Which is outrageous and not disclosed before purchase. The dealerships are not helpful and we had to threaten them to get them to do an emissions test which, you guessed it, fell within their 1200 mile deal. I have never heard of an untuned car on synthetic oil burn, or a car that isn’t from the 70s, burn oil like that. AND it didn’t happen until after 20k. This is a known issue with the car. Do not buy unless you like extra maintenance and worry. It will only get worse as the engine gets older. Cannot wait for that class action suit. Also known issues with center console on roof falling off and sunroof exploding. Resale value is abysmal and it’s expensive to begin with so I’m still 10k upside down after almost 2 years. Only gave it two stars because it is pretty and spacious. Exactly what I was looking for in a family car.

Acceleration Lag

I loved my Tiguan but there is a dangerous lag in acceleration. Several times I have pressed the gas and the car just stops and gets stuck, thankfully I wasn't at an intersection.
