2012 Volkswagen Tiguan

by Richard-LY on 11-11-2017
Reliable and affordable SUV
I believe purchasing a VW Tiguan is one of the smartest decision of mine.

The car is reliable and safe. I drove my Tiguan from Toronto to Quebec City this summer. Tiguan is very comfortable for long-distance driving. The seat space inside provide more than enough room for family. The cargo space is also great for family bulk purchase.

2010 Volkswagen Tiguan

A true beauty
7 years old, and runs and looks like new. No regrets! Could be a little more efficient on fuel in the city, but does very well on highway driving. I've only had to get scheduled maintenance done. No surprises!

2013 Volkswagen Tiguan

by HayleyW on 06-11-2017
It's a very good car, very reliable
I've had this car for approximately three years now and it's been extremely reliable. It runs very well, and I have had little to no problems concerning it. The interior design is very nice, as is the exterior. It's slightly difficult to clean but other than that it's a very good car.

Reliable and fun ride
One of the best cars I have driven and very reliable. Very roomy and great steering. The car itself drives very quiet and is very comfortable. If I was to buy a new car now I would for sure choose the Volkswagen Tiguan without a doubt. I love this car so much that I would purchase the model again.

Sporty little suv
We've owned this since 2012 and have had nothing but headaches with everything being so expensive to fix. Oil changes cost over 100 dollars and it wants 91 octane minimum. Only upside is the handling and performance are great.

Deluxe Tiguan R-Line
Super nice car! I have had a nice time driving this car. Nice special colors from other types of Tiguan. Spectacular view to see through the sunroof glass, which is very large can clear. It looks even more beautiful in rainy day.
Easy driving, convenient design.

2014 Volkswagen Tiguan

Trim: Highline
by buyingconstant7 on 10-24-2014
Awesome SUV with some quirks
We got the top of the line, Highline trim, with the R-Line sport package. Without it, the ride would be a lot smoother but on most bumps, it's rough. It does pay off in the twisty corners but on normal road surfaces with some bumps, it gets on your nerves after a bad day at work. The 2.0 TSI engine proves it can be reliable, good sounding, quick and efficient under the right conditions. In the city, fuel mileage is terrible. It's comparable to a V8 pickup in the city. However on the highway in warm conditions, it will surpass a smaller 4 cylinder hatchback. I do would sacrifice some power for better efficiency since I do a bit of city, but in my mixed driving I get about 8.5l/100lkm. The dealer has been very kind and helpful, not trying to con me into a special service(yet). Overall, I would buy this SUV again without the sports package(I will miss those fantastic Bi-Xenon healdlights) and through the same dealer.

2012 Volkswagen Tiguan

Trim: Highline
by ShonR1 on 03-08-2014
Sporty and Solid Ride
First time we drove the Tiguan we were impressed. Very responsive with the 2.0T and handing is very tight. One of the only smaller SUVs we've sat in that has leg room in the back (feet easily slide under the front seats) and has thigh support for longer rides. Expect a little higher maintenance costs if you have it serviced at VW, but worth it for peace of mind.

2010 Volkswagen Tiguan

Love this ride!
My experience with this car has been fantastic! The majority of the KM's on it are from highway driving. It handles very well. I especially love it in the winter. Solid car with lots of room. The beauty of this sale is that I purchased 7 year extended warranty - so it is good for 84 months or 140,000km.

A great sporty, luxury ride.
If you want a small car feel with a luxury ride, the Tiguan should be your next purchase. This CUV has the feel of a German sports car with the durability of a 4x4 truck.

EXPLODING SUNROOF
We love this car....all round satisfaction till last week when the permanent part of the glass roof exploded whilst driving down the highway at 115kph..outside temp of 0.05....scattering glass all over the occupants in the back of the car..VW is now balking responsibility for coverage, and not being very nice about it either...HUGE change of attitude from when we bought the car...to now..when we need help..

exploding sunroof
Love this car...until the sunroof exploded traveling down the road at 115 kph..outside temp..0.5 This was extremely scary....there was a loud exploding sound and down came the glass all over the occupants of the back seat...thankfully no one was cut.....we have since learned VW did a service job on the sunroof BEFORE we bought it.at 59,000 km ...it is presently at 69,000 km....which could be the cause of the exploding sunroof......now.they are balking at taking responsibility for replacing it....even though it it still under warrenty...not happy with VW ,A huge change of attitude when they are called to take responsibility as from the time when they sold us the car....

4 motion and i put dvds in the head rest. 2.0 turbo is very fast and fuel efficient. the steering wheel is very smooth to turn and responsive. enough room in the back to fit a double chariot stroller. I love the speed sensitive volume control and how clear the bluetooth sounds when using the phone.

2012 Volkswagen Tiguan

Trim: Highline
by Hartia on 01-18-2013
Amazing handling, but spotty transmission.
We in a way impulse bought the car due to a recent accident with the old car and constraints on time but have no regrets on the purchase. For a crossover SUV, 200hp engine making it 30hp more than the rest in the same class, gives it more than enough power to drive. The interior is very nice and comfortable, and 8 way motion adjustment for the seat is an appreciated addition. Although it would be nice to have the feature for both the driver and front passenger as well.

We also added in the technology package which increase the touch screen monitor with GPS and XM, which is definitely something the envy's guests, but the performance of the system, and the UI of the GPS seems so dated that it can be frustrating at times to even bother to use.

Finally, the car feels great on the road, the sport suspensions take some time to get used to but not so bad that I would complain. One thing that makes the car so enjoyable is the handling. Steering on turns feel very calm and natural you do not have to struggle with the wheel and can be more relaxed when driving. The biggest issue is the timing of the transmission going from 1st to 2nd gear feels to be off. The gear shift point is a little longer than I'd like and it sometime that annoys me when I hear it. And another unusual note is occasionally when the car comes to a stop, the engine chokes a little and we will have to get the dealership to look over the matter.
