Owner reviews

· Andrey, 37 years old. I am very pleased with the car. First of all, its efficiency, good maneuverability, and sound insulation are striking. In addition, the interior is very convenient and comfortable. The only problem that arose during operation was that the stand had to be replaced. They did it under warranty and quite quickly.

· Max, 30 years old. I bought a car a year ago. During this time, the turbo engine had to be repaired twice. Otherwise I'm happy. Particularly attractive is the rich and stylish interior, which is made of quality materials. But the most important thing is the complete set electronic devices, which make driving as safe as possible.

· Vitaly Sergeevich, 53 years old. Great car for the city. Has gained Tiguan a year and a half ago, and so far there have been no breakdowns. The only thing I didn’t really like was that it wasn’t enough large trunk. In addition, three adults can hardly fit in the back seat.

Leo, 29 years old. I bought new Foltz Tiguan two years ago, it passed the 45 thousand maintenance, I can say that I am happy with the car. I only changed brake pads, and consumables included in the basic maintenance. You need to keep an eye on the oil before long trip. In the summer I went to Crimea in this crossover, there I climbed Ai-Petri on it (remember what kind of road there is) - it was unforgettable! TrackEndStyle, turbodiesel - beast of a car!

Comparison of Volkswagen Tiguan with other classmates

Gone are the days when the main task was to create powerful car, which will feel great off-road. On this moment The main goal is to create a car that will primarily consume fuel economically.

That is why full size SUVs have long outlived themselves. Now the most popular are more compact versions, for example, crossovers, which is the Volkswagen Tiguan. Let's try to compare the most popular model crossovers - Volkswagen Tiguan, Toyota RAV4, as well as Honda CR-V.

The main feature of all these cars is that they were all based on passenger cars. That is why they have a rational interior space, average weight, but most importantly - economical consumption fuel.

Cars with maximum configuration, as well as all-wheel drive. As a result of the test drive, it became clear that each car has both advantages and disadvantages, but in general these are very good representatives of crossovers.

Volkswagen Tiguan

Is very spacious and sufficient powerful SUV. Among its advantages, one should highlight a very stylish interior, which is made from materials from the most best quality. In addition, the car's sound insulation is much better than that of other tested models.

The car's test drive on the road went quite well, but worse than the indicators that the manufacturers insist on. However, the car's maneuverability and handling are no worse than those of the other two crossovers tested, and some indicators are even better. Besides brake system works very quickly and smoothly.

The main problem with the car is that it is very high price, which does not meet the required functionality.

Honda CR-V EX-L

The HondaCR-V crossover is the weakest competitor, especially when it comes to power. The car drives obscenely slowly, although the car weighs the smallest among the presented crossovers. Even a high-quality automatic transmission does not fundamentally change the situation. Therefore, the car passed the high-speed test drive with the worst performance.

However, the car's handling and maneuverability are quite decent. Therefore, HondaCR-VEX-L becomes the test drive leader in this indicator. So the car is ideal for calm ride in city mode.

But, despite the weak power indicators, the crossover has its advantages. For starters, it has the most usable trunk space. The car's interior is also quite comfortable and functional, although not as luxurious as that of the Volkswagen Tiguan. Well, the main plus is the lowest cost among our competitors.

Toyota RAV4 4×4 Limited

A crossover that has the best ratio of functionality, power and cost in its class. It is this car, according to the test drive, that is the leader in this race. The whole point is that for Toyota company the main task is production quality cars, which will simply work well.

If we talk about the interior of the car, the car is much more spacious than its rivals. In addition, only the Toyota RAV4 has extra row seats, which folds and transforms into a trunk, so the car is very convenient for both big companies and for the transportation of oversized cargo. In addition, they didn’t skimp on the quality of materials either.

But the most important thing is the high efficiency of the car, as well as its low cost in relation to such high technical indicator. That is why among the above Toyota models RAV4 is considered the most optimal.

Disadvantages of the Volkswagen Tiguan

2. Passenger doors close quite tightly.

3. Side mirrors have bad review, this is especially true for the right mirror.

4. The compartment, which is located in the driver's armrest, has a small usable volume.

7. B luggage compartment not all space is covered with plastic.
