The 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan: Who Is This Car For?

The 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan is a compact SUV, making it a competitor in the most popular and most crowded class of vehicles. Among its dozen or so rivals are well-known names like the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4. While it may not be a household name like those rivals, the Tiguan has some cards up its sleeve. This VW boasts European flair and some of the best tech in its class, making it ideal for shoppers seeking a Euro compact SUV at a mainstream price.

The 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan is all-new this year, marking its third generation. It’s more powerful, more refined, and has more advanced technology than the last model. One significant differentiator is that the 2025 Tiguan reverts to being a 2-row/5-passenger model exclusively. The last version offered a third row, but those seats were small and likely didn’t see much real-world use. We are impressed with the Tiguan’s new design, and especially its technology. The 2025 VW Tiguan comes standard with a 12.9-inch touchscreen or an optional 15-inch version. This puts it at the top of the pack in the ever-growing screen wars. Optional touches such as quilted leather upholstery, massaging front seats, and Harman Kardon premium audio might just make you think you’re in a compact SUV from Volkswagen’s Audi luxury brand.
