  • Overview

    A blue 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan is shown angled left.

    Manufactured by the German manufacturer Volkswagen, the Tiguan has been in production since 2007. The first iteration of the Volkswagen Tiguan was a game-changer, adding a new face to the Volkswagen family lineup. This vehicle served as a middle point between the hefty SUVs and streamlined sedans that pepper the various Volkswagen models. Of the variety of vehicles that we have seen, the Volkswagen Tiguan is an impressive compact crossover with a history dating all the way back to 2009 in the United States. If you want to be behind the wheel of a used Volkswagen Tiguan or if you are trying to decide if the model is right for you, this Volkswagen crossover presents an unparalleled driving experience and a kind of sporty charm that’ll have you itching to hit the pavement.

    Depending on the model year, the Tiguan can come equipped with a touch screen navigation system, a rear backup camera, and power-adjustable front seats. One of it's nicer features offered on all models is a thirteen square foot sunroof with a power sunshade.

    Some trim levels are equipped with Volkswagens 4Motion all-wheel drive system. Like other AWD systems, this sends power to the set of tires that needs it. This is a great option for anyone who drives in areas with snow or for those who drive on uneven terrain regularly.

  • 2009

    The first introduction of the Volkswagen Tiguan had a low, sleek profile. It first hit the market with three different trim options the S, SE, and the SEL. While these trim options varied worldwide, the trio of differing configurations appeared to remain relatively consistent. The 2009 Tiguan features two rows of seating for up to five people. With all the seats upright, drivers can utilize 16.6 cu.ft. of cargo space, with the rear seats folded down, that capacity more than doubles at 56.1 cu.ft.

    The Volkswagen Tiguan was more than just a sleek and comfortable SUV; it also offered remarkable performance. The standard 2.0L four-cylinder engine clocked in with 200 horsepower and presented a seamless and responsive driving experience. In terms of fuel economy, the 2009 Volkswagen Tiguan earned about 18 mpg in the city and 24 on the highway, which was quite competitive at the time for a vehicle of its size and class.

    Post-2009, the Volkswagen Tiguan stayed relatively the same earning praise from drivers who desired the capacity of a full-sized SUV without any of the sacrifices of driving a much larger car. At the same time, the Volkswagen Tiguan filled a gap in the family lineup as a middle piece between full-sized and compact.

  • 2010-2011

    The 2010 Volkswagen Tiguan laid the groundwork for the future of this zippy crossover and would establish the Tiguan in the Volkswagen family lineup. The 2010 Tiguan was a sharp departure from the previous model introducing a softer exterior design in order to follow in trend with other vehicles making the transition to rounded edges. While the bones of the vehicle continued to be the same, what the 2010 Volkswagen Tiguan introduced was the option of a AWD. AWD drivetrains offer superior handling, as they ensure power is supplied to all four wheels equally. At the same time, AWD offers vehicles the option of taking their car off of the pavement and into the dirt. As a result, the Volkswagen Tiguan entered a field of other crossovers as a vehicle that bridged the gap between a wide variety of drivers from the daily commuter to the weekend-camper.

    2011 was when Volkswagen truly leaned into the Tiguan’s new identity. Like the previous iteration, the 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan looked very different from the first iteration, and it appeared as though Volkswagen was moving away from the low-profile, more compact design. This decision, was hardly an issue, as the 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan set the stage for the modern compact SUVs of today, which have earned a reputation for being a ‘jack of all trades.’

    Higher trim options of the 2011 model also introduced the foundations of some of the smart features we see in the vehicle today. Higher trim options of the 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan were equipped with adaptive headlights and emergency brake assist. While the 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan was in many ways quite similar to its founding model, it made many great leaps forward in changing what the market perceived of this spunky compact crossover.

  • 2012-2016

    The Volkswagen Tiguan remained relatively consistent over the following years, making incremental changes based on the steady shift of existing technology. Although, as technology advanced, so did the features that the Volkswagen Tiguan offered its drivers. Take, for instance, remote keyless power door locks, which was considered standard on the 2013 model. The same vehicle also was equipped with heated mirrors, leather trimmings, and emergency brake assists on all models.

    The 2014 model doubled down on the added bells and whistles, offering features like keyless ignition in the SE and SE 4Motion model. This same year opened up the door to additional features such as a rear-view camera to provide greater peace of mind, and 12V rear power outlets for convenience.

    The 2016 iteration of the Volkswagen Tiguan would be relatively unfamiliar from its introductory model. The 2016 Tiguan may have offered a similar styling as the original, as well as a still consistent inline-4 engine, but the crossover of 2016 was a true far-cry from the first model to hit showroom floors some seven years prior. 2016 offered the Tiguans best fuel efficiency yet, at 21 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway, making this a great choice for those with long commutes.

    In 2016 Volkswagen added an increased focus on safety, introducing the Post-Collision Braking System which was designed to prevent further accidents from happening after an initial collision. This feature would slow the vehicle down automatically, after an accident in order to avoid hitting other cars or objects. Safety wasn’t the only focus of Volkswagen in 2016, as they equipped their 2016 model with a bumping 8-speaker stereo system, as well as keyless ignition as standard.

  • 2017

    2017 was a big year for Volkswagen; the 2017 model would be the last of the first generation, which had begun ten years prior. This final model introduced more stylistic choices separating it further from its founding vehicle. For the most part, Volkswagen remained consistent with their 2017 model, choosing tried and true over sudden and stark changes.

    The 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan was still equipped with its zippy, yet modified and upgraded Inline-4 engine, and paired it with an equally impressive 6-speed automatic transmission. The machinery behind the 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan offered up a similar level of horsepower and torque as previous iterations, while at the same time offering a towing capacity of 2,200 lbs. For this model year, drivers can expect fuel efficiency ratings of 20 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway.

    Like previous iterations, the 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan still offered an AWD drivetrain option, and directly transferred 207 lb-ft worth of torque to its set of wheels. The 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan took a brilliant leap forward implementing some of the features you see in the top of the line vehicles of today. Some of these features included rear parking sensors, keyless ignition, and hands-free vehicle entry. While the 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan was the end of an era, you don’t have to say goodbye to this iconic Volkswagen crossover just yet. The recent 2019 model shows even greater performance with improved fuel efficiency, an 8-speed automatic transmission, and greater safety features.
