Volkswagen entered the compact SUV segment a decade ago and quickly made a name for itself. The original Tiguan was sporty, efficient, fun to drive, and built with premium materials. It had a touch of added refinement that you would expect from a Volkswagen vehicle with the features you’d want in a family SUV. It also surprisingly felt like a car on the road.
As a matter of fact, you could even say that the previous-generation Volkswagen Tiguan almost had a sports car-like handling. It was also on the smaller side. Volkswagen changed all of this in the second-generation Tiguan.
Driving Pleasure Paired with Versatility in the 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan
The 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan is still a blast to drive and impressive when it comes to handling and steering. What has changed is that the new Tiguan is now built on an extended wheelbase, which means a lot more interior space. For starters, front and rear passengers will get more leg and headroom, and there’s enough space inside the Tiguan to offer an optional third row behind the rear seats.
That means you can transport up to seven passengers in your Tiguan if you need to. If not, you get more than 1,000 litres of cargo space with all seats in place and more than 2,000 litres if you lower the rear seats. That’s a lot of space! In fact, the new 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan is one of the most spacious compact SUVs in its class.
Under the hood, you get a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that delivers 184 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque. This engine is paired with an eight-speed manual, which means you still get impressive fuel economy despite the fact that you also get more power than any other entry-level compact SUV.
