What an excellent review!!! Thank you!
Thanks Trish, I’m now looking forward to the Tiguan release here in Sydney Australia. Will definitely consider it as my next car.
I enjoyed watching the Video Review. The best looking Volkswagen SUV 😊
A great review and informative as always. Looks like a high quality products as we expect from VW - great to see less corner cutting than in some recent models.
Things look like they’re moving in the right direction 🤞🏼
Great review and highly enjoyable and informative. Really like the look and practicality of this car. Would be even better if they gave a longer warranty.
Completely new to Autosocial. Looking for a different review for the new Tiguan. Honestly Tish, this is the best review by a country mile. Great job.
Another fab video Tish! Can’t wait to get my hands on a new Tiguan now, it looks great so much more like it’s Touareg big brother now. The Match is such good value comparing it to the other trims too. 🧡
Just discovered the channel! Great review!
In many European markets, there is a more powerful diesel with 193PS and more importantly with 4Motion. That same drivetrain is sold here in the new Škoda Superb and Kodiaq.
I hope Volkswagen UK brings the 4Motion Tiguan MK3 models to our market.
I also hope the UK will get Tiguan/Passat and Kodiaq/Superb with 2.0 TSI.
@@stewartmungin5166 It should arrive later. I know Turkey now has the Passat B9 Variant available with both the 2.0 TDI 4Motion and 2.0 TSI 4Motion, I guess the latter is more likely for the UK.
@@DaveDVideoMaker let's hope so. VW UK have said we won't get any diesel Passat.
Great car review Tish 👍hope you have a great weekend 😀
Thank you! You too!
Brilliant review Tish! 😊
VW have made yet another best -selling Tiguan. Happy they have kept ICEs in the range. Cheers, Tom
Nice review tish that new shape does look good not sure on the big screen inside also loved the little cough and suzuki swift drop made me laugh haha x
I think it’s a little silly that Volkswagen are flashing this massive screen in their first demonstrators when in reality, I can’t see that many people buying them with the upgraded screen! Haha it’s definitely easier to talk about a new car when it’s actually new 😅😅😅
Just took delivery of my new Tiguan Allspace Elegance with 147TDI Turbo Diesel 2.0ltr. Drove it 430kms yesterday back to Geraldton from Perth. Pretty impressive car. Drives really well, nimble around the city and great little highway cruiser. On one occasion overtook two semi trailers at once coming out the front of them at 145km/hr with no fuss. Plenty of grunt. 6.3ltrs/100 kms makes it really economical too and cheaper to run considering the petrol version requires Premium 95 fuel. A lot of well built car with electric sunroof, AWD auto, premium sound system, heated leather seats and wheel, electric tailgate and Bluetooth package for well under $60,000AUD.
I always feel bad for all the people outside of germany, but just to let you know the same model goes 210kmh quite well also :)
Was looking to buy a 2024 Tiguan here in Canada. Test drive but found the infotainment screen fiddly & not really intuitive. Asked the dealership when the series 3 would come to Canada, she denied there WAS a series 3! So reluctant to spend C$56,000 on a vehicle that is soon to be an old model. This new model really looks like it may have answered some of my negatives. Great review. Thank You!
Piano Black Cross Looks Brilliant 😊
As long as its new, untouched, and shiny. But wait until it gets touched or scratched. Good luck
Fantastic review, clear well researched and presented. Spot on👊
just ordered one in green for delivery in March 25, looks awesome!
Thank you! really good review, the best I have seen so far, yes even better than car wow review !! subscribed.
Thanks again for sharing
Interior looks much better and higher quality than recent VW models
Go and inspect one first hand. They aren't.
@@fathippyThey are. Especially the base models.
I wouldn't call it luxury, but it is greatly improved.
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 ...😉
Great review! Just placed an order - thank you
Aside from the gear shifter the interior is amazing!! Gonna get my wife one when it hits my area
Props for doing the presentation in the rain without an umbrella ☔️ 😊
Thank you very much, weirdly it was raining so lightly I was barely getting wet. When I left in the morning, it didn’t even say it was going to rain!
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.
I love this new tiguan
Looks great, tech is awesome, hybrid powertrein is just what people want these days!!
Recieved my tiguan 3 weeks ago awesome
Good choice!
Best review I have seen on this car great job
Better style and quality??? They glued an iPad to the dash!
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.
Looks really good
I love my 2023 Golf R with haptic touch buttons. I've only hit the heating steering wheel button once since owning it May of 2023. To me, it looks way better than the regular buttons.
Totally agree no issue with the buttons on my ID 5
@@paulscott1759 Exactly. All the knee jerk reactions are blown out of proportion and so unnecessary. You gotta really put pressure on the haptic buttons to activate something. These "car journalists" are so ridiculous.
Fabulous video. With the prices of EVs being so high, a Tiguan PHEV makes a lot of sense. Food for thought! ID4 or Tiguan?
Thank you for this smooth beatiful video
I'm glad you like it
I really like this vehicle. Much better equipped then before.😊
Clearly, Volkswagen have realised that many customers are going over to the likes of Kia because of the amount of equipment you get as standard! I’m glad they started doing something about it.
@@AutoSocialUK Or maybe its just because the KIAs are classier, more stylish, better designed and more reliable as well as better equipped.
Das glaube ich nicht. Der VW hatt die neueste Technik verbaut.Und sieht innen viel hochwertiger aus. @@sharonec5419
Yes, we are too easily impressed by having a slightly bigger screen… premium price and the cost to the manufacturer is minimal.
But 15 inch is unnecessary large don’t you think?
@@AutoSocialUK Completely. I love tech, but also a Luddite when it comes to dashboard design…..they have become awfully flat. Integrate the tech into a well designed dashboard and cluster for me. Still quite like this new Tiguan(so maybe on the list). Great review as always Tish- thanks.
I just took delivery of the out going model R-Line edition. I hadto pay £300 for the electric tailgate and the same for the adjustable boot floor which i was told you only got if you ordered the spare wheel. Pretty annoying that some of those are now standard. As for looks i prefer mine to be honest specially the wheel rims.
It seems like lots of things like that are no standard like the electric boot, park assist ect. What specification of outgoing model did you go for? I bet like for like they end up the same. I thought an adjustable floor was standard on all VW products.
That TV inside ruins everything
Its the trend nowadays, but I agree. Even the standard 12.9" is more than big enough. Since you mention it, why not dedicate more of the screen area to the rear view camera view and use the extra real estate for something useful?
Thanks! No more 3008s for me!
Me either... to much noises in the cabin from day one, brand new🤦!! Crazy! No more Peugeots
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!
Tiguan PHEV with FWD, 7 gears, 3 clutches and 2 years warranty. Toyota RAV4 PHEV with AWD, zero gears, zero clutches and 10 years warranty (Relax)
@timogronroos4642 but where's the rest of the Rav4 Prime stats? Lemme help ya out. 302hp, 0-60mph in 5.4 seconds, 1/4 mile in 14.1 seconds, weighs around 1,983 KG, 105 MPGe on the highway, 84 MPGe in the city, and it can go 42 miles on pure EV. (Now I'm "relaxed)😂
@@kickstand801 You forgot to include the 50K price tag. Although I agree you do have valid points. The RAV4 is due to be updated for 2025.
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.
It looks like a Qashquai and ID model merged into one. I prefer the sharp, sleek and smooth look of the previous Tiguan R Line model.
Yes, the previous model looked better, this latest model looks too ordinary
I agree that the previous model looked better.
I am not from the UK.
I did not mean to be disrespectful, just thought that you sounded posher compared to other RUclipsrs doing car reviews. It felt like I was watching an English spelling contest. As to whether you get it right - do what you think is right. Keep up the good work 👍
To spec a new R line the same as my 22 model costs 10k more 😮
I do agree that it’s madness! I think there is a lot of models, going to be sold with no extras, or Premium paint colours!
Nice car and review
Nice review. Just waiting for my delivery
Hope you enjoy it!
Just ordered one
Much better bar the big screen - me trying to recognise where this was filmed 😂🚜
Superb review!
This just came over as a sponsored advertisement for VW
Through loading from the boot is not something they've improved for the Mk3 as that was standard on the Mk2.
And you don't pay an extra £25 for the tool kit and jack as that comes with the £350 spare wheel and boot floor etc.
Really it was excellent review but the car actually it is expensive
Years ago I bought a Passat , god knows what was going on in my head , vowed to never have another Volkswagen.
How come
@@willielarsson9651 compared to my previous Citroen, hopeless build quality, rattley dash, overheated, uninterested dealers one of which actually damaged the car ! And I thought I was buying quality! Got rid for a Mazda6 , a great car excellent dealers .
Shame. VWs were always solidly built... and then came along piano black plastic
I don't think its a good idea they moved the gear shifter from it's previous place. It is a important part of the car and moving it on the place where there were wipers it just wrong to me. The big screen and ambient light it's just an eyecandy, I do like the outside look of the car, but inside it's just missengineering and budget build to me.
Tailgate is an optional extra with the r line
Outstanding review
Thank you kindly
I tish I heard you talk about the 40000 pounds luxury car tax. Not many people are talking about that. Due to coming in, especially for electric cars next year. What do you think about it Paul from se London
Mini are bmw, the etched tiger and iguana in back window is nice idea, just to show where the name comes from, be nice to compare to the new Audi q3 due anytime
Gear selector on the steering wheel? Big turn off 😮
Felt like a VW advert at times. A fully specc'ed R-Line, with features that match the competition is £4-5K more expensive. VAG are clearly blurring the lines, or trying to, between Audi and VW.
This is not a cheap car, and comments like it's below £40K are naive. You have to play the VAG options game to up spec the car to make it comparible to basic competitiors. An R-line PHEV with a decent spec, including options is £57K! The diesel of PHEV are the only usable power trains with something that size. The similarly specced Kodiaq is 3-5K cheaper, MAzda CX-60 is 5K cheaper, for 2K less you get 2 extra seats with the Hyundai Santa Fe. All those with better build quality, reliability and integrity than VW.
K so first time watching this channel, nice review, nice SUV, etc...but really, doesn't always seem to be raining when a British car reviewer is doing an outside review of a vehicle?? 😁
Tish its such a nice car well said
Looks like the love child of a Toyota and an MG!
We have had one for the last two years
Such a shame the wheel middle button cannot control the whole infotainment system
I had a Golf GTE, which was nice but boring. At least the interior has been brought into the 21st century.
Nice interior and rear... not so much front end, a lot of plastic as well and VW reliability.
I’m sorry, but I’ve got to the point where I just fuck anything off with touch based HVAC controls.
Manufacturers are already reverting back to physical buttons, and VW are failing miserably.
I undertake it’s not completely there but VW have made a big move towards the physical buttons
So is VW. But not Mercedes and not BMW.
Was really tempted to buy one but seeing it in person the interior lighting just looked cheap and tacky, I also wish the R line seats were plain and didn’t have the pattern on them. Shame as I feel the interior let the car down
That’s interesting, it’s definitely a taste thing. I quite like the ambient lighting and I’ve always loved the pattern seats and how they play homage to the performance models of the past. Mind you, this isn’t a performance model, so perhaps you are correct!
I hope USA get this. But it doesn’t have enough power for us. I hope they give us something worthy of the name
the car looks good, but the front grill looks horrific though 🥴
Exterior wise i still like the previous generation.
Good, they're still for sale, and you can get it for a discount.
Please can I ask you questions about car Tiguan which one better and best Tiguan or skoda kodjak and kvalite inside material thanks
Hopefully going to get a chance to compare it to Kodiq soon
Just looks like a t cross pumped up with RAV4 vibes but interior is nice
All I want to know is the answer to her question "is bigger always better"?
I think she's like me, a size queen
I really don’t like the light bars both front and rear, I hope they can be deactivated somehow. 2.0tdi is the way forward for me
It’s only the higher spec models that get it on the front. However I’m not sure about the back.
@@AutoSocialUK doesn’t matter to me, I’ll find a way to deactivate them or block them out somehow because I want R-line trim and I really can’t stand them😂
@@richarddastardly6845 The light bar doesn't bother me, however, I do find the lighted logo a bit gimmicky. I have no problem with any of these as long as the owner can opt to turn them on/off.
A simple option in the infotainment would easily solve that. Especially since owners already have some control and choice of configuring the lights. In a crowed parking lot, that could have advantages. Especially when you return after dark and everything is all tuned around.

It seems OK for families with 2 kids but what about for people who need to put 3 people in the back. Why never any comments about that side of the practicality.
It’s funny John, how are you seem to have stumbled across the only video I’ve ever not sat in the middle seat. 😂 sorry for not highlighting in this video, but it is often something I cover.
Looks seem to be moved towards ID4 etc. Not a good idea.
How did you get those alloys when they don't appear in the options when building the car online?
What if your someone like me who doesn't want any screens in my car at all , don't need them and don't want them it's a car keep it simple all they are are tools to get you from point A to point B and back and all these cars are is today version of the 80s minivans !
Your the best car reviewer ❤
I miss the days when the Tiguan was cute and tiny 🤫
Have you compared the old Mini to the current Mini?
Can I drop in from California for a test drive?
These touch screens are dangerous
They’re used for advertising mainly. Not many people will go for a a display this large.
@@AutoSocialUK Doesn't matter what size they are they are a focal point for everything. The more you have the more times your eyes will be taken off the road. Your presenter, admittedly stationary, didn't have her eyes on the road when she was scrolling through menus. You can't use a phone if your driving but hey lets give you a big I-pad to distract you.
its missing 200bhp 4x4 model which normal European cars will get, especially as mentioned car is heavier
I can never find any enthusiasm for VW products I'm afraid. I find them souless and boring.
I love your earrings Tish.
Hi! Thanks for that movie. I have a question. I will be very happy if you can reply.
What do you think about the DCC suspension noise (especially on the Comfort mode)? 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!
What do you mean by loud suspension? What does it sound like, Robocop?
Wireless Car Play?
I’d have to drive one, but 150bhp sounds a bit underpowered for this size of car…..have 4 people in there and I’m not sure it would have the performance that would make me feel comfortable.
Completely understand. A completely full car of people makes a big difference
Why don’t you tell us the 0 to 60 for each engine spec?
The video was already 24 minutes long, there was a lot to cover. The 0-62bph figures are as follows:
1.5 eTSI 130ps - 10.6 seconds.
1.5 eTSI 150ps - 9.4 seconds.
2.0 TDI 150ps - 9.4 seconds.
1.5 eHybrid 204ps - 8.2 seconds.
1.5 eHybrid 272ps - 7.2 seconds.
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.
I am from malaysia. Tiguan vary nice for me
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.
You’ve Tish lost a lot of weight, slimmer than before. 👍👍
It’s all in the angles but I appreciate it either way!
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.
The 12.6 inch boyfriend screen is indeed better
I'm pretty sure that's 12.9, but we won't quibble about a few fractions of an inch.

VW has always been a conservative design. If you want creases and folds see Hyundai.
