The model
Read full Volkswagen Tiguan reviewThe VW Tiguan offers generous space for occupants, a big boot and fine driving manners. The Skoda Karoq is better value for money, but the Tiguan is polished enough to take on the highly competent Kia Sportage. For private buyers, the 1.5 TSI 150 is the engine to go for, while company car drivers will be better off with the eHybrid.
