Buying tip
The 2024 VW Tiguan presents a solid argument with its spacious cabin and impressive technology features, though fuel efficiency falls short.
This preview of the 2024 Tiguan will be updated when official prices, specs, and info have been published.
What kind of vehicle is the 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan? What does it compare to?

Is the 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan a good SUV?
Well-equipped and spacious, the Tiguan presents a strong case with a friendly approach to performance and plenty of value. Last year we rated it at 6.3 out of 10—a score we'll update when final info is available. (Read more abouthow we rate cars.)
What's new for the 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan?
We expect the Tiguan to carry over for 2024.
The 2024 VW Tiguan is closely related to the cheaper, smaller, and less-powerful Volkswagen Taos. Conservative and clean exterior styling continues inside, which includes small third-row seats in front-wheel-drive versions. Under the hood, a 184-hp 2.0-liter turbocharged-4 produces decent pep and mates well with the 8-speed auto transmission. The VW Tiguan is tuned for a comfortable, yielding ride, though R-Line versions, with larger wheels, can be somewhat stiff. However, fuel economy ratings of 25 or 26 mpg combined are toward the thirsty end of the small crossover segment.
On the upside, the Tiguan boasts a spacious interior with fantastic second-row seating and a large cargo area. Its simple dash includes an intuitive infotainment system with standard Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, with wireless compatibility as an option.
