- Here is my quick review of the 2023 VW Tiguan SEL R-Line. I really appreciate the driving dynamics and the sheer amount of interior space the Tiguan has to offer. If you want to see more of my detailed thoughts, see my 2022 VW Tiguan review here: • 2022 VW Tiguan SEL R L...

I bought a Tiguan 2yrs ago and have 0 regrets I’ve driven VW s for 30 years,doing the proper maintenance and using oem only replacement parts I have not had any serious reliability issues 🤷🏽♂️ cool review 💯
Nice! Thanks for sharing!
I owned a 16 Passat for five years with 80k, no issues. In my ID 4 right now and enjoy it
Two neighbours of mine had a VW Passat (2008 model) many years ago, both neighbours had rusty door handle regions while my (as old) Ford S-Max was flawless, I wonder if the rust protection is as shitty as those days?
Interesting, have such a bad name in Australia..
Man I torn on this or the cx5, realizability is definitely on Mazdas side, but man I love the Tiguan
Picked up a 2023 Tiguan SE trim about a month ago. So far, very pleased. Completely agree with all your points surrounding how it drives and handles. The big selling point for me was, as you mentioned, the ride and interior space. My only concern going forward is the reliability, will be very interested to see how well it holds up over the next few years. Great review as always!
Massive congrats on the new Tiguan. I’m sure VW will let you extend the warranty
This May 2023, it will be 10 years to my Tiguan Sport. No major expenses so far, other than an oil change, batteries change once, filters, etc nothing big ticket. No complaints at all.
I have owned 6 Tiguans. I buy Car shield diamond warranties for $99 a month and they have taken care of me well. 3 engines, transmission and oxogen sensors. I would not own a VW out of warranty.
My 21 door handle snapped off almost clean. No I didn't yank it or do anything out of the ordinary. Keep an eye out, it's cheap empty plastic
Mind if you update after 6 months?
Great review young man, you hit the nail on the head with all your comments. Getting ready to update to a 2024 R Line SEL from a 2018 SEL and couldn’t be happier with the product. If you want a vanilla, soft ride, everymans compact suv buy Japanese. If your seeking a bit of thrill and excitement, go German!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for this video, very nicely done. I am considering getting one of these for my wife next year.
I have a 2020 Tiguan SE and I really like it a lot so far. That said, I prefer to drive it most of the time in the custom setting with Sport Steering and the normal setting otherwise.
Just had two weekends of extensive driving (over 1,000 miles each) and the car was great
Great review. I bought a 2022 and absolutely love it. Tremendous value for the money and very roomy. I would buy another or upgrade to an audi since they come from the same overall company.
I’m watching this because my Audi has a small dent and the insurance company wants to total it. Just beware of Audi When it comes to that. I’m 100% satisfied with the car it’s just very expensive to repair with parts and labor.
I have the 2020. Thabk fully i got ut when they were cheap paid about 25000. 29 with fees and finance.
No regreats. Fits 7 people. Only issue the ateering shaky when i break since i boght it. But stil happy
Haven’t watched you in a while…..🎉Great review as always.
Thank you my friend I really appreciate your support!
Having quite a lot of mechatronix failures on the DSG in the UK. Still a lovely car to own. Bought my new 2023 r line in March
Great review! In Canada we call the model you drove the Highline R. Of all the comments I read people are really stuck on the lack of horsepower. I owned the Golf GTI a few years back & that thing was a rocket. Do you think the horsepower in this Tiguan is lacking? The vehicle has so many options I like, I’m considering purchasing one.
No I really don’t think the HP is lacking at all the thing with VW is on paper their HP and 0-60 numbers look low but in reality the vehicle feels quick and effortless around town. I’m satisfied with the power output and with 4 motion it puts the power down well
@@MeynMotorGroup ń
I’ve have 2 of them I have a 2018 sel r line and a 2023 r line and have had 0 issues with both.
In general wireless 🛜 charging pads all across the board in all brands sucks.
They just make sure it keeps the phone 📱 ON.
I would be surprise if I get 5% more battery after 30-35 mins !
When I see the price of the car I'm crying because you pay over €40000 for the basic version in Belgium
I bought a 2020 SE and loved it. Bought a '24 SEL R line and gave the '20 to my son. I'm 70 and the '24 is my 15th VW. Too bad VW has wasted so many resources on the EV fiasco.
Very nicely done video.
Thank you my friend I’m glad the content was valuable to you!
I miss the old style of Tiguan. 2014 to 2017. Prior to 2014 there was issues with the timing belt guides until 2012 which when they fail they trash the engine. then in 2013 they changed and improved he timing chain guides but threw in the old timing chain guides into the container of new ones so the "cancer" goes into 2013. The style from those years look more European. They look like chevy suburbans now.
I have a 2021 SEL and there's nothing fun driving it 😂 it actually almost killed me a few times with tremendous lag. The 2.0 lacks so much power it's ridiculous. Trying to turn off my block on a small incline, it laga hard. Sport just makes it overly sensitive and tries too hard. The center console is lacking. The armrest is so damn small, you need to be child sized. I will say it's the fast smoothest infotainment I've used. My 21 even works with hand gestures which is interesting .
Nice! This is a 23 however
@@MeynMotorGroup I don't think I'll be getting another Tiguan. Probably going to an Atlas. I prefer my year Tiguan outside appearance wise. I do love the interior on the 2023 Tig
The seats these days are getting more uncomfortable.. I drive for long hours and I feel like you can find plush seats anywhere anymore!
Essential to have a DSG gearbox with smaller engines to derive max power... VW : simple and sturdy with safety!
Build quality of VW has jumped up since 2010 onwards and drive comfort is comparable to Audi... In my opinion
They need to bring the proper tiguan R from Europe
That would actually be pretty sick
Funny too, since we get the Golf R. Yet it's the Tiguan that's the best selling VW in North America.
R version :Stiffer suspension... But very sharp in the bends!
Not for families!!
@@gcdhvf4896but more power.
Great overview. Kevin, do you feel that vw is competitive in the US market in general?
No not really the only vehicles I like from VW is this Tiguan and the Golf everything else is mediocre. I have not tried the Arteon but it’s so expensive that I don’t even care if it is good
@Exhaust Sports Auto what about atlas?
Didn’t like the Atlas ride quality was subpar prefer the Tiguan a lot more and it’s cheaper
the third row is important for me though... does anyone know where the airconditioning in the third row can be found? is there airconditioning for the third row? thank you for the response in advance!
Right. The third row is what brought me to this car. I wish it was a bit roomier but I’d only need it every now and then for family visiting or some of my kids’ friends.
@@oklahomalaneget the atlas then
Does anyone know if there's a way to see the list of directions on system navigation. Sometime before I pick a route I want to see the roads it's taking me down before I choose it. Haven't found out how to do this yet? Is this offered?
VW is the best, i watched once the fully modified Golf R beats tesla in drag race 😁
180hp is terrible for a vehicle badged “r-line?
The wheels on the SE model suck. Dark gray and black wheels just look dirty, or like someone stole the "hubcaps". The SEL wheels look great!
Yea but most people can’t afford an SEL and would rather have the better ride quality for most families
@@MeynMotorGroup True... Just wish VW offered better wheels on the SE. I think the wheels on the S model even look better.
@@andyk6796buy aftermarket wheels
why no engine option?????? 180 HP is a slug
Bro my Grandpa is buying this car
I have the 2022 thinking about getting the 2023 for my wife
👏🏻
9 seconds tp 60? That's ridiculous.
There a big lag at take off. It sucks. It does take off after but it’s annoying. Other than that it’s a great car.
The only thing I wonder about is why Tiguan’s have such poor consumer reviews. Obviously someone(s) must be having issues.
They have issues it’s a cheap lease and dump only. Get an SE for less than $400 a month and dump it after 3 years and repeat the cycle
My 2019 Tiguan R-line interiorrs (less plastick and real buttons for AC) and exterioris (real double exaust, not fake plastic ones!) are way better than the 2023 model.
Cars are getting worse and worse.
It's basically a cheaper Audi, but think i will stick with my bigger Q7 for now
The Tiguan is more compared to the Q5.
The Touareg is similar to Q7
@@tommycarney7238 Been looking at the Skoda Kodiaq, was surprised with the quality and size, another 7 seater to consider
👊🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Yo bro
Hey bro happy Friday and I hope you have a blessed weekend as always

@@MeynMotorGroup As well as can be mate, You?
@@Excalabur50 great to hear! And doing well thank you next review car is a 2023 Integra Manual just doing some research on it before filming the vid
@@MeynMotorGroup SWEET!
I wouldn't buy one highly unreliable
Nice!
Company lies. Same CEO that blessed them lying about emissions.
@@TD05SSLegacy All manufactures do.
Its not highly unreliable. Don't say stupid stuff.
VW JUNK
