How's it Criminal? The Tiguan isn't a full size SUV. It doesn't weigh the part either. 201hp is perfect for the Tiguan. 240-250hp is right for larger SUVs cause they need it to get going. Tiguan is smaller doesn't need all that horsepower to get up and go.
Agreed, 201 hp is anemic. But do not fret, VW teams up with APR and in their usual fashion APR will offer a tune that maintains the VW factory warranty. APR's tunes usually provide around 20 additional hp and 25 to 35 more torque. At the WHEELS. One of the reasons I love VW. They're conservatively designed. Engaging to drive. And easy to tune.
@@reynaldocordero4247 While it's parked in your garage/driveway? Sure it's fine. It's when you start filling it with people and/or cargo, that the Anemic 201 horses start to show its ugly face.
I own Tiguan 2013 first gen, and was considering Tiguan 2025 to replace it, but now due to low HP, I am looking into Subaru Outback turbo charge 250 HP.
The front just reminds me of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with the protruding grill and light shapes. Not feeling it, sticking with my current Volkswagen.
The new Tiguan has about 300 lbs of weight reduction, which is a mistake as it will affect it's stability. They should have up the HP from 201 to 275-300, with 3 L engine.
201 hp is crazy for this size vehicle and they could've done a better job relocating the gear shift but other than that, nice little CUV 👍
I had a Tiguan with a third row seat. Never used it. No one ever wanted to be squeezed back there.
201hp is criminal for that size. 240-250hp would have been the sweet spot.

@@ChristianC-gy1ym You got it. I've been buying into the APR ecosystem for about 20 years!!! For my Audi/VW products.

Not true mine is in excellent condition and no issues for 4 years now 82000 miles
This is a beautiful car. I am not a fan of the gear shifter’s location. I want a real traditional shifter.
PRNDL all the way. Don't want to put the SUV in reverse putting on the wipers.
Sick of seeing crossovers. Ugliest cars to been manufactured. Can’t see around them at stops or leaving parking lots. Pest cars.
looks like every other suv/cross over the 1:29 1:10
Is Volkswagen back to its premium era? If so, might consider

Gear shifter on the column….😂😂
Looks great and some of the interior control sins have been addressed.
Real knobs and buttons!
Why get rid of the 3rd row???
“Grinds a little extra pepper..”? 😑
New intro 👀
the only thing i'm gonna say is... Not too bad for a VW
WTH, a New Volkswagen Tiguan so This is Compared with Toyota Crown Signia
Too much screen!!!! Dial it back
Stalk gear selector is stupid
Soon after 60k miles this thing will fall apart.
Boloney! I have had for 4 years and no issues and it has 82000 miles never an issue
@@HenryCalderonJr You probably got $10 trade for it.
Plastic oil pan ?
It looks nice but....Volkswagen
FACTS!! Volkswagens have generally been over priced AND unreliable for decades. Who needs that?!
Exactly my thought
I wouldn’t trust it
30 years owning all kinds of VW, literally zero problem
@@DavidSusiloUnscripted maybe the old ones are good but turbo = trouble
Do not buy it i have drive the euro version already had problems with the screen and the assitance tech after driving it twice... TRUST ME DON'T
A VW hater ! Have mine and no issues
VW 😂 it won't age well
For sure!
Poor Reliability..
Sorry.. Toyota all day
This isn’t a Hyundai VW makes cars that last
