2021 Volkswagen Tiguan Review: The Best Affordable SUV
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 10. 2020
- This week I spent some time with the 2021 VW Tiguan S... this particular car was a base trim FWD car, but boy was it the definition of 'bang for buck'. In spite of its low $20k price tag, this thing oozes quality and refinement, and while I'm young enough to admit that I still hold performance/sportiness in the highest regard, I can't disqualify the value proposition that the Tiguan offers.
The 2022 model year brings a facelift, because of this, prospective buyers can look towards a full year of hefty discounts ahead! The VW Tiguan, particularly when under $30k, offers an unrivaled overall package, and for this fact it is my favorite AFFORDABLE compact SUV on the market !!

Volkswagen means "The PEOPLE's Car" for a reason! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Do you guys like the Tiguan more than the CR-V and RAV4 ? LMK!!
Not sure tbh, idk much about the CRV or the RAV4, but this is killer for the price of the base model
Couldn’t agREe more
Yes sir
Appearance wise - Tiguan
Yes I do and I bought one. But I almost bought a CX-5.
Thanks for showing the screenshot of the different trims and prices. That is really helpful!
Gotchu!!
Great review - I really appreciate your chill, informative vibe. Other reviewers just scream at me for 20 min, so please keep it coming!
You got it!!
I have the 2019 SE for traveling. I also have the GTI. Your presentation is excellent Reo! Your personality is great and lots of good practical realistic information. I’ll subscribe! Keep them coming. Totally agree about the price and being brand new.
Appreciate the kind words !! I like the idea of a Tiguan + GTI stable, you got something for all your needs, both are very practical and offer exceptional value for money 😎
Well done. Great speaker. (I agree about the GTI !).
GTI FTW! 😎
Great review bro you got a new subscriber
Thank you my man!
Thank you. I learned a great deal about the 2021 Tiguan S, this is really good value for SUV.
Thank you!!
Nice review
Thanks my man
Getting a black Tiguan S tomorrow. Super excited. Glad I found your review. If you use Google maps or Waze while your phone is plugged in does it display the route via Apple CarPlay on the screen? Just thinking of that now.
Yes it absolutely should with either app!
I love them! I have the 2020 Tiguan Sel Premium R-line.
I love how the R-Line looks! Very sporty and premium
Great review Reo.
Can you help me with a quick question? Do the screen work with android and iOS? I use google maps a lot for navigation
Thank you! Yes all 2019 and newer VW's should have both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities !
That 3rd row came out of nowhere bruh, def did not see that coming lmao
Happy to hear it pardna
u ever do camping in the car? u know where u split for a weekend in to the woods and use the back to sleep in. or by a lake and just relax. i did enjoy your reiew but if u have a large suv does the rear seats lay flat?
I have a 2018 se 4motion model and can say this is a great review I am very happy with my purchase and utilize the third row more then I initially expected I would suggest getting an se model for larger center screen and leatherette seats everyone I know who has been in my car believes I spent more on my purchase until I tell them and they are genuinely shocked if anyone is looking to purchase check prices on true car they go for considerably lower then msrp
Ayy happy to hear you’re enjoying your Tiguan, great car
The review I was looking for 🤟🏼. I have a Jetta but need a bigger vehicle for moving. I’m debating between getting a new Tiguan S or lightly used Q3.
Appreciate it!! I haven’t done a video either the Q3 yet, but I have spent some time driving one and I can’t lie, I wasn’t that impressed. Of course the car has quite a bit more ‘pizzazz’ but the overall experience wasn’t superb. It does feel like a Golf on stilts which may a plus for you haha. Both solid cars though, good luck!
I am in the same situation, test driven both the tiguan se and the new taos. Decided on the tiguan!
Good job on the review. I think you hit the main point : you can get a Tiguan SE with sunroof for about $27k + TTL. It's a very roomy, comfortable, and well equiped SUV and it's quite elegant looking and stylish. Compare that to a Forrestor Limited which is more practical but not great looking at a price tage of aroudn $31k . You should also look at the CX-5. You can get a great well equipped, stylish and fun to drive Touring or GT for #28-$30k. Another great deal.
Thanks! CX-5 is on the list!! This is becoming the new economy mid-size sedan segment, everyone wants and SUV... after spending some time with the Tiguan, I see why.
Best suv on the market.
You missed operation of the third row seats! Everyone wants to see that in action.
Ahhh, I'll add that next time! Cheers
I like the styling of this over most crossovers but realistically how reliable is it compared to others?
I'm not certain, and Consumer Reports would better answer than specific question... what I will say is if you're buying new you'll have plenty of warranty, so not too much to worry about for a while
Nice car!
Yessir
You try sliding the second row seat forward a bit (since they have so much space in 2nd row anyway) and sitting in the 3rd row? There is a hump in the 3rd row that gives more headroom.
I did actually, it helps, but I’m still 6’2, so it’s rough back there 😭 I need a Suburban for it to be tolerable
the tall boy test?!? huh....
ahhhhh *thumbs up*
😎🤙🏼🤠
The q5 has ridiculously large side mirrors. It's like driving a mini F-350. That's the first thing I noticed when test driving one.
I love it!! Can't stand small side mirrors
GOOD REVIEW IM SOLD. SOOOO WHY THE TOYOTA ADDS MID VIDEO?
Lmaoo thank you !! Ad's are individualized, so google probably thinks you're considering a Toyota and is feeding you those ads
Awesome video bro! I just traded in my 2016 GTi for a 2021 Tiguan yesterday because I have a kid on the way! This suv is perfect and I’m so amazed at the price I got! I’ll HAPPILY be a fucking soccer mom 🤣🤣
Sad to see a GTI go... but sounds like you got yourself a sweet soccer mom mobile 😂😂
@@Reoniz hahah ya I was a little sad but I gotta put my soccer mom leggings and cardigan on soon cuz the baby is coming haha
Agreed. It can give off soccer mom vibes:)
Hahaha 🙌
Karen’s love it right? Haha
Don't confuse the car as a whole with the trim. Its the trim that makes it a distinctive and specialized vehicle. The base car is utilitarian, while the SEL premium makes it more luxurious, and more sporty.
Of course, I’ve actually sat in an SEL Premium R Line, and while it is indeed quite a bit nicer than a base S, there are a lot of cars for around that money that offer more “standard luxury” ... essentially what I’m trying to say is that to me the S and the SE are at price points where the whole Tiguan package makes sense... IMO
Just bought the wife the 2021 SE with the panoramic sunroof, side steps, upgraded 18” rims, navigation, leatherette heated seats, etc(fully loaded) and she loves it! She gets about 28 mpg, and the ACC is amazing!! You never have to break or gas unless it comes to a complete stop at a red light! But get it to about 2mph and it takes over again!! I just love VW’s!! Traded my 2010 jetta tdi for it and do not regret it! But our’s was a bit more expensive (36k)
Ya that sounds like a pretty sweet Tiguan! Congrats and I think you made a pretty solid choice trading in the Jetta for it 😎
the VW car net - that allots you to start remotely ., I was looking towards this then when I went in the dealer they mention a module is required smh
Oh that’s a major bummer :/
My brother is a Genesis Technician... you literally sound JUST like him when talking ab what kind of cars you prefer and why u don’t completely get it that we (lot of us girls esp have an SUV craze) 😂
😂🤞🏼 sounds like a good dude!
Do they fit a different gearbox in America, it shows it as an 8 speed, in Britain they are a 7 speed dual clutch gearbox?
Hmm I'm not sure, I'm certain it's an 8 speed here, but it looks to be the same there too!! 🤷🏻♂️
@@Reoniz I just read up on it and in America it has an 8 speed auto but in Britain it is a 7 speed DSG gearbox.
@@grahamcole4240 ok thanks for letting me know!
Trendline FWD, Trendline AWD, Comfortline, United , Highline ---> these are the trims in Canada. 32300$ to 42705$
A bit different than here in the states, those in CAD right?
2021 VW Tiguan SE - NEW battery at 40.350.00 miles to the tune of $450.00 at the dealership.
Went into a store, came out, battery DEAD Service advisor blamed it on the HEAT. ha
Careful upkeep on these cars can be pricey.
Is this fwd or all wheel? That brings the price up by 3,000
This car was FWD!!
@@Reoniz yes I know, all wheel is an extra 3,000-4,000
4 Motion AWD only costs $1000 on the Tiguan, you can see by building a car online 👍
You have a nice voice
Ayy thanks 😤
I wish this gave off more soccer mom vibes
Lmaoo, get it in blue with roof racks 🤷🏻♂️
Haha ew wtf
This is not 2021
A 8 inch bazooka basstube would go nice on the third row room 🔊 .
Lmaoo your heads in the right place
2024 add more like 5k $
YOU JUST KILLED IT.
TORQUE STEER.
KISS OF DEATH.
BAD.
