LOWS Could use a little more power, seats may feel too firm for some, interior design is a bit too businesslike. VERDICT The Tiguan is a stylish, European take on an American favorite, and its crisp handling is a breath of fresh air. Overview Among compact crossovers, the 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan is the only one that offers a distinctly European flavor, with crisp handling and elegantly tailored styling. The only engine choice is a smooth, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, and while performance is merely adequate, it does deliver on fuel efficiency. A host of tech features is included in every model, including a digital gauge display, contemporary infotainment connectivity, and driver-assistance features. The cabin, while a sedately styled, is spacious for people and cargo; a third row of seats is available as an option, something only the Mitsubishi Outlander matches in this segment. More than anything, though, we like the Tiguan because it’s sporty and fun to drive. Pricing and Which One to Buy S - $28,245 SE - $31,875 SE R-Line Black - $34,605 SEL R-Line - $38,975 Engine, Transmission, and Performance Under the hood of every 2023 Tiguan is a turbocharged four-cylinder that makes 184 horsepower; front-wheel drive is standard but Volkswagen's 4Motion all-wheel-drive system is optional. This is an athletic, fun-loving SUV with a smooth, willing engine and a well-coordinated automatic transmission. Like most of its competitors, it's far from fast, but it makes up for that with a taut ride, nimble handling, and responsive steering. There’s a a whisper of sportiness here that recalls VW's well-respected GTI hot hatchback. The Tiguan's brake-pedal action is soft and it doesn't match up to the firm, progressive pedals we enjoy in other members of VW's family tree. At our test track, the Tiguan delivered a rather languid 9.1-second zero-to-60-mph time. On the road, though, the Tiguan doesn't feel as slow as its test results indicate, with enough low-end grunt to feel perky around town. Merging onto the highway may be the only time you'll wish the Tiguan had a bit more power. Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG The EPA estimates that the front-wheel drive model will be the most frugal, with ratings of up to 24 mpg city and 31 mpg highway. All-wheel drive drops those numbers to 22 mpg city and 29 mpg highway. The top-spec SEL R-Line carries ratings that are lower by 1 mpg in both metrics. When we get a chance to test the Tiguan on our 75-mph highway fuel-economy test, we'll update this story with the results. For more information about the Tiguan's fuel economy, visit the EPA's website. Interior, Comfort, and Cargo The Tiguan's interior is classically Volkswagen, which is to say that it is simple and functional but not particularly stylish. Others offer more legroom in the second row, but the Tiguan is one of the only vehicles in the class that can be had with seating for seven. The Tiguan comes standard with cloth seating and partial power adjustment for the front seats. Opting into more expensive versions can net full power adjustment for the driver, faux-leather seating, and a panoramic sunroof. With just 12 cubic feet of cargo space behind the available third row, the Tiguan simply can't be a hauling vehicle when the third row is in use. With the third row folded, the Tiguan's cargo measurements put it about in the middle of this class for raw space. With all the seats folded, we fit 19 of our carry-on boxes in the Tiguan, less than we stuffed inside key rivals including the Honda CR-V. -- Was ist neu für 2023? Für den Tiguan gibt es für 2023 kaum Änderungen, was angesichts der gründlicheren Auffrischung für das Modelljahr 2022 verständlich ist. In diesem Jahr erhält die SE R-Line Black-Ausstattung ein neues 19-Zoll-Raddesign und die USB-C-Anschlüsse des Tiguan wurden für das Laden mit 45 W aufgerüstet. Motor, Getriebe und Leistung Unter der Haube jedes Tiguan 2023 steckt ein turbogeladener Vierzylinder, der 184 PS leistet; Frontantrieb ist Standard, der Allradantrieb 4Motion von Volkswagen ist jedoch optional. Dies ist ein sportlicher, lebenslustiger SUV mit einem geschmeidigen, willigen Motor und einem gut abgestimmten Automatikgetriebe. Wie die meisten seiner Konkurrenten ist er alles andere als schnell, aber das macht er durch ein straffes Fahrverhalten, ein flinkes Handling und eine reaktionsschnelle Lenkung wett. Hier schwingt ein Hauch von Sportlichkeit mit, der an das hochgeschätzte GTI-Schrägheckmodell von VW erinnert . Read more: https://www.caranddriver.com/volkswag...
