'''''Assessment: While the 2024/2025 Tiguan is newer, slightly more powerful, and comes with more standard features compared to its rivals, it's less practical and less fuel-efficient. Similarly, it utilizes touch-based climate controls, unlike its rivals which feature physical climate buttons. Recent studies and reviews indicate that most consumers prefer the latter.''''' | |||
