Is DCC suspension louder than non DCC cars you have tested? Some people say that new Passat with DCC Pro has really loud suspension. I ordered Tiguan with that but I still have some doubts. Could you please help me with decision go/no go with DCC? Thanks!

    The gear selector behind the driving wheel (Mercedes style) is a good idea ... because ... with a not-so-complicated-adjustment ... the central console can be eliminated ... and this way the right foot (the left one in the UK) won't feel crowded anymore. The driving position will be "aired" ... like in a VW MultiVan ...😉

    When you say "this is how to do a new car" I thought you were referring to the new Porsche Taycan Turbo GT. Got excited for a moment😂😂😂 right off the bat: the dimensions. I'm loving the compact appearance of the Tiguan, and it still has that tradition VW style. Loving the new technology, lighting is impressive. Overall HP isn't the best in its class but it doesn't have to be. Now, the compact SUV category is competitive. Aside from the Tiguan, you got 2 Japanese best sellers to contend with; the Rav4 and the CR-V. So it will be interesting to see if the Tiguan can outperform its rivals and be the gold standard of compact SUVs. Great review. Thumbs up!

    Actually, the VW does need to have more HP, or something that distinguished itself from the Japanese. Sure, DCC is great, but that "suspension feature" is not going to bring in any new customers. The majority of buyers look for interior features, cabin comfort, finish and materials. That's the route Mazda chose with its new line of cars. In addition, the CX50 offers a max of 256 hp. The Tiguan is a great starter family SUV. But in North America there's also that segment that can only afford one can and want to add fun to their utility. That's where VW used to shine when they popularized the hot hatch which proved utility didn't need to be boring. I'm just wondering when Hyundai surpassed VW with its own invention. Right now they all have a loyal following with their superior reliability. Equally them is not going to be enough to bring in any new buyers.

    I don’t think it looks aggressive at all. I currently have a 23 reg r line but I won’t be buying the new model. That strip light on the front and the black across the middle of the dash with like bits of white in it I hate. I don’t like how everything is controlled by a screen rather than buttons but that’s the whole vag group in general. Takes far to long to turn things off and if you’re driving you don’t want to take your eyes off the road for longer than you need to! Seats look like the ones out of a Škoda now but they’ll be comfy enough.

    Great review as always. Just changed from 2 tiguans in last 6 yrs ( last 1.5 tsi elegance) to an ID5 pro performance. Tiguans were great cars. Super reliable and comfortable. Never a squeak or rattle. Omg… contract with ID5 is night and day. ID5 ride is harsh and just plain uncomfortable even on 19 inch alloys. But it’s the build that’s the big difference. Straight from delivery the dash, front seat and boot rattle constantly on all but the smoothest roads. I would have gone for the new Tiguan but Vw were wanting too much money on lease. ID 5 have some attractive offers ….. that’s because the car really isn’t great.

    Yeah just sits under £40k stick paint on it and it doesn't , match is the sweet spot, doesn't have trizone climate, my £27k Leon st has more boot room and trizone, would be good if you could get a new Kodiaq against it, 7 seats cheaper and has physical dials for climate ,think only down side is the digital dash which isn't as good to look at as the VW.

    Like the new shape, the ID range look soooo boring in comparison. The interiors, particularly the seat fabrics need a major re think; I had this finish in my T Roc R and it is tedious.I think the Skoda range, model for model, is more interesting and leather seats more available on a wider spectrum of vehicles. I will stay with VW group in the foreseeable future, good value and trustworthy.

    Everybody's going to say its too pricey, but its not too much for what you get. I just hope VW hurries up a produces a true performance R version. To cement the model. Right now its just average. But avenger is not enough to increase sales. As it sits, the Tiguan will not be turning any heads anytime soon. If VW wants to increase sales, it just make good business sense that they throw in everything they've got (all the tech) when its their best selling model. Like Dodge did with the Omni (and now with the Hornet) way back in the 80s. They focus on multiple variants of a single car which brought them back from the brink of bankruptcy. VW is always playing catch-up. Meanwhile, Hyundai is rocketing forward with their N cars, and making a name for itself in the performance arena. If it wasn't for that brands quirky styling, I wouldn't hesitate to consider it.

    @@krane15 VW have decided in the interests of production economy to dispense with manual gearboxes. Most of the younger generation of drivers are used to automatics therefore they will just accept them. For us older generation manual boxes still allow us to actually drive our cars and select the optimum gear ratio to the conditions. I own a manual 23 model Tiguan 150ps Tdi.

    @@sharonec5419 Agreed. But Toyota is not the best example. All Toyota crossover SUV look like trucks. Hyundai cars are far too garish and over styled for my taste. Although cousin Kia is a bit more understated. I think VWs have a handsome yet conservative look. I always prefer a linear belt-line, but other than that rise at the C-pillar, I think the profile is OK. I like the super form crease over the rear wheel too. Interior wise, a few others have adapted soft touch to the rear compartment so it doesn't feel so much like you've been relocated to steerage when you sit back there. And a few even give you those neat window shades if you have a child seat. On there other hand, there are still cars in this class (and beyond) that don't even offer heated rear seats, or a reclining feature, and some can't even move for and aft (Cadillac). As someone with a tall family, I'd just like to one day see thigh extension added to the rear seats too. That's a feature I'd pay extra to get. As a driver that does lots of road trips, I'm happy to see a longer thigh cushion finally got added to the front seats though. Hopefully, I won't still need to pack the pillow to support my right leg when I'm behind the wheel all day. The more adjustments the less fatigue. There's a reason rear seat passenger always complain the most on road trips. I still remember those days growing up -- "are we there yet?" -- as a long-legged teenager.
