Volkswagen Tiguan - Plush and Capable SUV

Not every car is perfect when it comes to good packaging. VW Tiguan is one such car that ticks all the right boxes. I recently purchased the new Volkswagen Tiguan and I have to say that the car is a real beauty. Almost in every aspect, the vehicle shows its amazing capability. The new Tiguan is the first offering from VW to feature the newest MQB (Modular transverse matrix) platform. Tiguan's positioning is little ambiguous, but the charm of Volkswagen cars usually lies in their solid build quality, the latest technology and typically restrained German styling which makes them bit high in terms of price. Volkswagen places Tiguan as a cheaper alternative to compact luxury SUVs like Mercedes-Benz GLA and BMW X1. Its exterior styling is entirely comprised of straight lines and the most prominent is the deep shoulder crease that flows into the LED tail lamps. The vehicle looks more like a squatted down crossover rather a rugged SUV. Interiors are good enough to provide luxurious appeal with all black theme and leather upholstered seats and steering wheel. VW Tiguan comes with a lengthy equipment list that includes automatic wipers, cruise control, electronic parking brake, a big touchscreen unit with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. For safety, there are six airbags, ABS, ESC, hill hold assist and hill descent functions and active hood that rise up in case of a frontal crash to reduce the impact on the pedestrian. NCAP gives Tiguan a 5-star rating which is excellent for markets like India. Volkswagen Tiguan is offered with only single engine i.e 2.0L diesel mill which produces 143PS and yields the peak torque of 340Nm. The powertrain comes mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. In short, the car looks good, solidly built, drives well and top of it, much more reasonable than German trio in the same class.
