Now that it’s more comparable to and competitive with segment stalwarts like the Honda CR-V and Ford Escape, the Tiguan’s European design and driving sensibilities are much more attractive.
The solidly built Tiguan is neither the quickest nor the most fuel-efficient compact SUV you can buy. And while the new warranty goes a long way in reducing the potential financial impact related to VW’s documented quality shortcomings, we wouldn’t bet on the new Tiguan being as trouble-free as a Honda CR-V, for instance.
