  • Hey everyone! Today I take a look at the 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL. I am especially excited to tour this car because of how much I love the VW Atlas. This specific Tiguan is a 7 passenger... which is a loose term. I would find it very difficult to use the third row in this vehicle... watch the video to find out why. All in all, I think this car is a great 5 passenger option!
    What do you think?

    I literally just bought a 2021 Tiguan 4-motion se r-line black and am in love! This was our perfect car because it has that “emergency” third row. We have just two kids and we figure we don’t need to haul more than just us on most days so that third row is just there in case we need it. This was also a perfect price point.

    I am in the market for this exact vehicle. I think the 3rd row was never meant for adults! I plan to use it for the occasional “hey can we bring my friend home from practice?” Scenario. For that, it would def come in handy. I have 2 kids and only one in a car seat. Can’t wait til the 22’s come out later this year! Def getting STONE BLUE!!! Love your reviews. Very real and funny!

    So excited you did this! I just got a 2018 VW Tiguan SE and so far so good 👍🏼 I don’t have any kids yet (just me, my husband, and the dog) so I think it’s going to be a great car for our first kid and maybe even second before we transition to something bigger. The center console is soooo small but other than that, I am super happy with it!

    Thanks! Great tour. Thinking about leasing the Tiguan and then deciding to buy it out or if we want to go with the Atlas. Just a family of 3 now and only plan to be a family of 4 - so 7 passenger is nice but not a must for our needs. Like the idea of only getting it in the 5 passenger design of available.

    I’m so excited you did the Tiguan! It was at the top of our list until I got a peek into the backseat at a dealership and literally LOLed. Also the used ratings aren’t that good which scares me a little since we are in it for the long haul! Right now our top contender is the Forester... so curious about what you’d think of it!

      We own both a 2019 forester and 2019 tiguan I prefer the Tiguan over the forester it is more spacious and i like the way it handles more and the trunk is bigger. We don’t plan on using the third row except for the dog and have a toddler car seat plus expecting one now and it’s plenty of room for a Costco trip with a stroller folded

    Not a bad review of the 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan, Kelly. It still looks really small for a family vehicle. Anyway, can you a video on the all-new, 2022 Nissan Pathfinder SL AWD eight-passenger crossover, please? Some of these vehicles could be in dealerships all over the United States already. I have never seen any of them in Canada, yet. I am extremely a fan of The Car Mom. I would like you to meet, the Car Wizard, who is based in Newton, Kansas, which is a six-hour drive from your current city (St. Louis, Missouri). His real name is David Long, who owns a vehicular mechanic shop, which is called Omega Auto Clinic. He also has his own CZcams channel - you can search for him and subscribe. I just wanted to see each other, talk about most likely crossovers and see how they are popular, compared to minivans. Thank you very much and I will wish for more The Car Mom videos to come for more, brand-new crossovers and minivans.

    My husband and I have one child and will expand our family at some point. I drive a Ford 2017 Escape right now and he has a paid off Chevy Malibu. I want my next vehicle to be a Chevy traverse and he wants a Silverado. We both have near 800 credit scores. We want to keep the Malibu as an extra vehicle but we want to trade in my suv and get the two Chevy’s. Do you think the dealership will give us a great deal if we buy two vehicles at once. And would we have to roll the balance from thr escape onto the new vehicles? Trying to stay under $1000k in payments 🥴. Are deals better during a certain time of year? If so, when? Help!

    I watched your video. We have seven year old grand twins and a two-year-old great-grandson. I would need to be able to get the kids in and out of car seats because my husband is disabled. I don't like to feel cramped so I need to feel like I have room in the front. Trying to stay in a lower price range because we are older and I don't want to have payments forever. I think Mitsubishi also makes a 7-seater and that price range. Thank you so much. We're in a situation where we need to buy something because our engine went on our van. Also wondered if you have any recommendations or if you believe the warranties such as Carshield if you don't buy new. Thank you!!
