The Tiguan is the compact SUV for those who crave a refined interior and a quiet ride.
The 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan is all about elevating the everyday drive with its upscale interior and a suite of standard tech features. Step inside, and you're met with a cabin that whispers luxury—quiet and spacious, with screens that dominate the dashboard. On the road, it handles with an eagerness rare for its class, thanks to its pleasant turbo-four engine. However, it does stumble when you demand quick acceleration from a stop, and the infotainment controls might have you longing for physical buttons. If you're stuck in rush hour traffic, though, the quiet cabin is a welcome sanctuary. This SUV is perfect for drivers who prioritize interior comfort and tech conveniences over raw power. We'd steer those seeking a hybrid or intense power off the line elsewhere.
