When it comes to family cars, they don’t come much more recognisable than the Volkswagen Tiguan.
Now, you might not believe it when you first lay eyes on it, but the Tiguan’s been updated! Sure, it looks pretty damn similar to the old model, but we can assure you there are differences both inside and out.
As for under the engine, well there’s a choice of petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrids, including a range-topping 2-litre turbo petrol that’ll deliver 320hp… Although you’re going to have to upgrade to the Tiguan R for that! If you're not willing to step up to the R, you could always go for the R Line (like we have in this video), which has a 1.5-litre petrol that can produce 150hp.
So what do you think - is the Tiguan still the must-have family SUV? Or are the XC40 or Skoda Kodiaq still ahead of the game? Stick with Mat to find out!

I can't be the only one that watches these videos not because I can afford them, but because Mat reviews them so nicely.
Im watching to know what to choose in the future xd
of coarse you wont be able to afford anything with that attitude
No,I do it too I watch this because he reviews them at such a higher level than then rest of the car review channels and cars I wanna get in 5 or 6 years when I legally can
Obviously the Fiat Multipla is my SUV (Shoddy Used Vehicle) of choice for under £250

I absolutely love your reviews. Quick, efficient, and some humour, perfect blend
Me:what's the most important thing in front seat of a car
Matt: door bin capacity
you must be proud of the number of likes...
I like the fact that you are adding pictures of the basic versions. Usually car reviewers get the biggest trim level and when you are in the garage, you're usually not gonna spend a few grands on all the bits and plastic. Do the new Q5 next!
The best thing carwow does is show you the actual differences between the trim levels. This helps a lot when wanting to buy a car, because the price (and visual) difference between different trims can be huge.
Really wanting to get this new model over here in the states. This new facelift model has got my heart set on it, no doubt!
We are receiving it
Really good car.. Quality is excellent. Got it for 7 months now & still impressive for me.
I just bought the 2021 Tiguan RLine Black edition and absolutely love it

Thanks Carwow! I was PERFECTLY looking for a 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan Review!!
I can confirm and concur, @E MBTR has executed his 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan review search... PERFECTLY. 👌
get an estate
We did 17k kms ( in just 7 months)in our brand new 2 liter diesel high-line( not R line) Tiguan with full leather seats. Awesome car no words to say, we drive in Germany and the car is very stable in autobahn till 190 kmph.
( My advice: raised seating and full leather seats makes your long drives 10X comfortable, extra 2.5k spent on full leather is 10K worth, avoid R line)
I like this new review style in which you show old vs new models and also different trim levels....
Thank you
And this is actually a very very good car...
Was looking to buy this car. Checked for your review on it first, couldn’t find it. Couldn’t watch the other journalists’ review so I opted for your old review of the old Tiguan. About time.
1:38 Those wires tho lmao
Yikes hope they fix that as quickly as possible
If we're peaky we also have chromes that aren't very well adjusted
My shit box 2002 focus doesn’t have wires exposed ha... modern Vw build quality though. 2004-2010 bang on though
@@joskjj3625 This is a first generation version basically a prototype
@@conorf8091 This is the first generation version it’s a prototype
Looking forward to your review of the Kodiaq 2021... Shame you cannot compare different trim levels in the videos, but I appreciate your opinions and the words.
Thanks fella!
Has Mat ever said to any car that
"Damn, this car has the biggest glove box"
all the cars he reviews he is like
"decent sized glove box"
Lmao right
I really like the side by side comparison you did with the predecessor and basic model, would be great if you could do that for every car!
Mat ! I like that teaser @1.50 U R JUST BASIC, Awesome review ! Good Wishes from UAE .
Hi Matt, just a suggestion for your reviews on family suv’s or any family car really. For boot space test, also see how a standard sized pram fits. Otherwise good job all round from you as always 👍🏼
Or, a set of golf clubs ;:P
Still think the new Peugeot 2008 is the best small SUV for the money. Bought mine based on your review Matt and wasn’t disappointed. Great design in and out, lovely drive, plenty of features. Got my GTLine for under £23k.
A good tip for carwow, you have also fans outside UK. So when you go through numbers just mentioned somewhere on the screen in liters and km. That will help a lot in my opinion. Thx, always nice to watch
The Skoda Yeti is basically a VW Tiguan underneath the body. I have one from 7 years ago and when looking at the interior of the same year Tiguan they are identical. The Tiguan is a great vehicle and possibly only eclipsed by a Yeti. Of course they stopped making the Yeti so I would probably get a used Tiguan next time. Get one like mine though with the full Monty package with DSG and four wheel drive. Also on the Yeti the rear seats are individually removable. This turns it into a van if you want massive space.
The best place to store the luggage cover (which won't fit under the floor) is to move all the back seats forward a bit and it slots nicely into the gap you create.
1:37 the wiring for the sensor or camera is showing and doesn't look well insulated. What's up with that?
Probably a dodgy build on this car, ive seen these facelift Tiguans and none of them have it. Not that you go looking specifically for it, but on this car its quite obvious lol
Yep saw that. It was jarring to look at lol
Cost cut
Volkswagen Tiguan R Line 2019 Review
th-cam.com/video/mmMIBTcD0CI/w-d-xo.html
This is probably pre production
Thanks this video is very useful, ours is arriving on January 7th, R-Line all Options, it's nice to see the car before it arrives IRL
This is like your “retro” review from back when u were in carbuyer
Great review as usual!
Is this updated Tiguan bigger than the previous model or is it exactly the same car, just updated panels etc? Thanks
“You have to spot really closely to spot the difference between the old one and the new one” it is so obvious it’s a new design
Imagine looking at those two after
a year. You really think they gonnaa look different??
@@lakshyadev2121 yes???

Look at the back, there is not much big difference to see...

It's amazing VW can come up with different permutations for different market/ country. Mine is Tiguan Allspace 7 seater R Line 4 motion. Comes with 218bhp 350nm 2 litre petrol engine. Interior is mostly the same but we get the bigger 9.2 inch infotainment screen Harmon Kardon sound system. No panaromic sunroof for us who lives in the tropics. Adaptive dampers on 19" wheels. Most of the time, my 3rd row seats are folded total flat with 700 litres of boot space. No rear parcel panel instead we get the retractable cover n can kept neatly with the spare tyres (nothing to throw away!) The IQ lights (adaptive LED headlights) are amazing at night
I have the 2018 R-line tiguan, one of the nicest looking affordable SUV's, physical buttons and sporty looks. Such a good car.
The parcel shelf does fit under the adjustable floor, you just have to read the instructions.
1:38 what's this apparent cable
Parking sensor cable, weird that it’s visible
well VW lost a lot of money because of the diesel-scandal, they need to cheap out and can’t even afford anymore to hide a cable
It is a one-off on the car.
69 likes... nice
Spoted this immediatly. Hideous cables, look like aftermarket add-on.
Recognized highstreet Egham instantly! Just down the road from the Mranello garage! I miss Royal Holloway...
Thank u ive been wait for this

Volkswagen Tiguan R Line 2019 Review
th-cam.com/video/mmMIBTcD0CI/w-d-xo.html
Finally we got a proper Tiguan review :D
12:10 Egham... good memories of my old university town 😂
I have a 2019 R line and apart from the swiping rubbish (totally agree with you Matt) it looks identical inside and the techs the same. I think the old model looks much nicer as well. Warning don't buy the diesel 2.0 it has an awful delayed accelerator....bordering on dangerous when pulling out of junctions.
Definitely a retrograde step with all the touch controls. Don’t work with wet hands or with gloves 😡
Finally !! A VW review
Now can you do a Tuareg R review, that would be a cool one to see :D
I chose the XC40. Picked it up last week. Awesome car. ❤️
for every car Matt comes up with amazing examples. 😎
Looks like a sporty transporter from the front
Great Quality Content i hope available in India as soon as possible
i really enjoy paddle shifters. when you brake it shifts down automatically but when you accelerate it wont shift upwards. growing up with a pc and a steering wheel with paddle shifters does make it more enjoyable. i own a really underrated car imo: 2014 2.0l diesel engine 150hp golf sportsvan. perfect combo for me, stands between a 'sports' car and a 'minivan'. quick, spatious, economical. best i got was 5L/100 on a 700km trip. between 7-8L/100 in town (home->work)
In what world is 150 hp quick ?
I rented a diesel model and was getting 55 mpg. I was amazed plus the seats are extremely comfortable. Before this I was completely anti VW for a lifetime but I got to admit it was one of the best motors I drove in while
And with the price of diesel at the pump all that mpg is undone by inflated prices which believe me are going a lot higher next year.
Diesel cars are being phased out and eventually only a few petrols will be available as it’ll be a mix of hybrid and ev.
Buying a diesel car is false economy.
More regular service intervals, more west on internal parts and not only all this they sound bloody awful and are slower than their petrol counterparts.
Diesel is shite
@@MATTFL380Wait until you receive your electric bills in the winter months and tell me if EV is cost effective. Not to mention the ever decreasing battery range at full charge.😅 I tried EV and I didn't like what I was experiencing. It only lasted 11 months and I traded it in with a 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI R Line DSG. I'm getting more miles and it's still cheaper compared to my staggeringly high electricity bills. 1,600 euros for months of October and November 2023. Just insane. EV is not the future. I can tell by the number of brand new EVs lying around waiting to be sold. It took me ages to sell my EV because nobody's buying them and it's depreciating in value. That's coming from a real life experience. EV is not the answer. I think Hydrogen Fuel Cell Cars make more sense. Until then I will stick with my diesel.
I can name another excellent SUV for under 25k, the SEAT Tarraco! It's actually the Tiguan Allspace with a SEAT badge, so the engines, gearboxes etc are all exactly the same as the Tiguan, but it's also a 7 seater and model for model is cheaper than the Tiguan Allspace.
I'd love to see Matt do a review of the SEAT model.
JontyRP
I like the old model better! Specially with Stage 2 Tuning! That 2.0L Turbo with that nice dual clutch gear box and 4wd make it goes nicely with 300hp easily!
Were all waiting for the Tigaun R review Matt!!
I have the previous model and I'm quite pleased with the reversing camera, the one shown in the video looks like shit. I really like that they gave the reversing camera its own cleaning nozzle, saves you from going back there cleaning it all the time.
Mat : “ the front of the car is very different “
Front of the car : the headlights are further apart 🙄
Whats your problem?
I think the old one looks ugly and boring but this looks sexy
@@Florian-or4qi Sexy? My God.
In English “Tiguan” translates into “I have lost the will to live”.
@@Florian-or4qi I completely agree
@@Florian-or4qi I don’t have a problem I’m quoting what mat said cause it was funny ?
The new grill and the new lights are very distinct from each other. It’s a totally new design direction
7:21 Should we play a game and guess what Mat actually said was the boot capacity?
It’s cos of the edit lol
I think he said 720l by mistake
Volkswagen Tiguan R Line 2019 Review
th-cam.com/video/mmMIBTcD0CI/w-d-xo.html
the space saver isn't standard, and nor is the modular boot floor so it's likely he gave the figure without as stated in the brochure. which is 560 I believe.
Sitting on the back seat of my Tiguan after watching that review looking for "Tiguan vs XX drag race" on the channel :D
love my tiguan , reliable and spacious for family.
Like how even as successful and huge carwow is their camera and sound quality hasn't really improved
I really don't like the gopros footage and sound quality 🤢
@@simonwilson7581 doesn't better video quality amount at least a bit to more viewers and therefore more money? 500k cameras might be a stretch but the video sure does look amazing
Hi Carwow. Tiguan Elegance trim comes with reverse camera as standard.
you do nice reviews.. love to watch your videos.. i wanna see hyper cars drag race on your channel. buggati, koenissegg, Pagani, McLaren f1
i love that he goes to town these days... so much better
My mother Love this car. 2.0 litre turbo 320hp
9:26 He throws the cover 😂
Matt, the cover DOES FIT underneath the trunk “floor”. You got to just flip it upside down.
Nice review, I'll get this one.
As of 2018 reversing cameras have been mandatory on all new vehicles. Surprised they're still an "option" in the UK
Love the design of this
Awesome video! I like the Tiguan!
All those "swipe" functions mean you cannot use them while driving as they require closer attention. You can stop turning a knob and the "swipe" will stop but on a touch screen it tends to keep going.
This car is amazing amazing 👌✨ good work volkswagen 👏👏
Really like this. Great family car. Can't wait till this available on the VW configurator 👍🏻
Love your vids carwow
Best reviewer. So honest & funny!
9:18 there is already mud on the load cover, I wonder what it has been through
13:16 The most british sentence I've ever heard 😂
got my heart set out for this.. i wannnnt the 1.4ltr Petrol Turbo pleaseee!
11.05 Nice to see it’s got a hydraulic strut
The exposed cable under the bumper is a mishap with this particular model. My neighbour has nearly the same spec car they took delivery of the other week, and the cable is well and truly hidden. Pipe down internet lol.
It is common trend to attack top car maker.

"you have some deep pockets here in the back...and once again, they "R-line'd" " 😁😁😁😁
I have the new t-roc and i prefer using the touch sensitive buttons on the wheel because you can use it like normal physical buttons but it looks better lol, not sure why so many reviews complain, having multiple options to touch/slide or press the button normally is not a big deal
Ordered an 1.5 R Line through carwow based on this review and a test drive. Super easy with a nice discount.
1:39 the plastic ornament from the front door is not well lined up... also all plastic look cheap..
You can see the camera wiring as well at that time stamp
@@299.1 yeah I too saw that. Not acceptable at this price.
Its due to the perspective of the shot... check the other camera angles

Woah.. you are a genius to find that
Yes it’s a Proto type for now it will be like that
Yesss! Was searching for this comment!! ahahah
I loved the review. Please make a review on the MG Hs.
My wife as a 2018 R-line arms the back trunk cover is a roll up style and it does fit under the false floor

Really? The cable is saying hello
Yeah, feels very cheap
Jesus.. that is really bad. Even cheaper cars then VW dont have this type of shts.
I thought it was something carwow mounted at first. I couldn’t believe the manufacturer would do that
Looks terrible on car like this 😱
@@rrxbt Calm down, this is a one-off. VW's don't usually have this, considering if this isn't sorted, its asking to premature failure of which VW would have to pay for under warranty. Cant see an exposed cable like that lasting long at all.
We have a 2018 R Line and we will definitely be getting the new one when the time comes to swap it.
Full rear red reflector strip ,just like Skoda vRS models.Easy to see at night by following vehicles!
What mat missed: Tiguan is available with a 360° camera , heated REAR seats and a heater with remote , theres also full dynamic headlights and taillights , the ones shown are not the IQ light system. Theres also a further option for the adaptive dampers , you can put them even more sporty in individual and even more comfy
He mentioned the back up camera and its low resolution.
@@krane15 its not trust me
14:13 I guess the software devs were too lazy to change the image from a golf to a Tiguan 😂
Good review! But have you filmed the driving scene with the built in rear-view camera? OMG, what kind of 2001 quality is that?
the old R-Line came with the pan roof as standard. Need to spend a good bit on extras now to get the same spec as before
I come here for Mat Watson❤
Good on you
13:10, nice a new car with a singular reverse light that's working
why do you need more? it’s bright enough in the night
on the other side is the rear fog lamp
It’s a bright LED light so you don’t need more than one
