First, awesome vids guys; suuuuuper entertaining and also informative! Has anyone else noticed that the Tiguan R seems to have a dead spot when given full throttle from low RPM? Seems to happen at 12:40 and 15:40 in the vid. Also happened when I took one for a test drive......takes a good second or two for it to actually get moving. Not ideal if you're looking to squeeze into a gap from a standing start (e.g. coming from out of a side road into a 110 zone).
Currently, comparing the Tiguan 162 R line and R Grid edition, I actually prefer the seats in the Grid edition, and I think for the extra couple of grand, the R Grid edition is worth it.
How does a Type R Tig not have a panoramic sunroof.. mine does but unfortunately here in the states they don't think we deserve a real type r.. I would of bought one.
@@Notsure00700 ya Type R is an Acura.i mean the Tig R. They have a Tig R Line here but that's just a blackout package and added features which I have..
No different to the Allspace… you might find value in purchase price over a Tig but its the reverse when its time to sell… Skoda resale is terrible in aus
@@CarSauce I had gotten distracted a little bit by something on my phone n then I heard "fist me" I was like, "what, am I still on the same car review channel?" 😂😂😂

was thinking intially this would be a cheesy over the top review, but was pleasantly surprised - well done boys - great car

It called turbo lag and if you jag the throttle instead of squeezing it ,you will notice it in all turbo vehicles not unless its a twin turbo setup.

HEY ummmm no offence but who in there right mind is lending these cars to you goons.
The car did not agree with your description of the exhaust sound. It literally did a dummy spit. 😄
Enjoyed this one I currently own a mg HS 2.0ltr AWD I'd love to see what you think of these I really love mine and drive it every day
Mic'd up Jacob is good craic
Alright, now we need a T-Roc R review!
Well that was fun, thanks guys.
Good review , simple and honest
I have Tiguan r line it’s a lovely car
I have one too in UK and I love it. Its not a hard ride and I am old
R Line does not equal R. lol
@@NicholasCox85 The R Line is the associates package. The R is the performance package. But he made that distinction in the comment.
Can I get this in Canada?
Which is better Tiguan R or Cupra Formentor?
The manly groans are sending me. Still unsure if Tiguan R is the better option or Cupra Formentor or the Ateca.
How does a Type R Tig not have a panoramic sunroof.. mine does but unfortunately here in the states they don't think we deserve a real type r.. I would of bought one.
Sad you don't get the Tiguan r like here downunder but a type R is a Honda here!

Wish we could have that in canada .. Our tiguans R have 150hp , and no quad exhaust ! Still 50 000CAD 😮💨
Great review and perfect price point for the performance. Nice roads too where abouts was that?
😊
I know its a SUV but how does it compare to the Stinger?
Feels faster!
is that a REAL GEARKNOB ? need that in the Golf 8
🤓 Thanks & Love VW 🇩🇪 Tiguan R 🚙
Great review. Would you prefer this Tiguan R, or the Lexus NX 350H Fsport (2WD), both are $80 driveaway...
Reliability = Lexus. Performance = VW
Monotone interior is extremely boring. Seats look cheap for leather. Great performance for an SUV, however.
Still think the skoda kodiak vrs offers better value, slightly slower,but more space and 7 seats
I like the Kodiaq RS but there is something not quite right about a performance diesel haha
@@CarSauce , new RS has petrol turbo.
No different to the Allspace… you might find value in purchase price over a Tig but its the reverse when its time to sell… Skoda resale is terrible in aus
@@CarSauce New one has the 2.0L petrol
Slightly slower??? Bahahahahahahah😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I can’t get one in the USA
Agreed. Sounds awful when stationary
Order the Akrapovic exhaust for an extra 3 grand. If sound is that important.
10:52 ...Did he just say fist me???😅😅😅. I suppose its OK to say that in Australia
wheres the 70 series review gone?
Tiguan!!! Brutal car!!
Love Jacob's honest reactions 🤣 definitely need more fisting 👊 lol
Waiting for the Golf R review as ordered one already.
Coming soon!
wait... no cooled seats?
Nope!
In Australia? Somebody else needs to be fired.
Great to see you guys back. 🔥🔥 review as always! #PAUSE! Did Matt just say fist me? 😂😂😂😂😂
😳
@@CarSauce I had gotten distracted a little bit by something on my phone n then I heard "fist me" I was like, "what, am I still on the same car review channel?" 😂😂😂
I could watch Matt Brand videos all day... not because of the cars tho. Matt tho
'Fist me' used to mean something completely different!
also if I may...please stop fisting each other its really just a giant fist off with a car in it.
"Fist me" means something very different where I come from.....😀
this car look like a small toy next to you lol
Classic when at start of standing speed test # 2, self proclaimed Princess says “fist me” to co-pilot Jacob . GOLD
When it comes to the North America it won’t be look like this😊
80k drive away with all the options selected...ummm
I see you’ve cranked up your ad settings
Nope hasn’t changed since I first monetised the channel - probably on the TH-cam end!
@@CarSauce boy now I need to watch 2 15second ads to see your videos!
Haha you can definitely blame TH-cam for that, I pay for TH-cam premium so I don’t have to sit through ads 🥹
Why are you yelling at me?? 🤔
Jesus
not a good review!!!!
