2024 Volkswagen Tiguan vs. Honda CR-V


When it comes to compact SUV’s, the
2024 Volkswagen Tiguan offers you an adaptable, reliable, and comfortable option. The Tiguan is the perfect SUV for the busy driver who needs a vehicle for both their regular commute, and longer trips down the highway. You might be wondering how Volkswagen’s world-class German engineering compares with some of the competition, though. The team here at Georgetown Volkswagen pits the Tiguan against the Honda CR-V, to determine which one is worth your time and money.

Interior Space

One of the key differences between the Volkswagen Tiguan and the Honda CR-V lies in the passenger count. The Tiguan offers the option of third row seating for up to seven passengers, compared to the more limited five-seat CR-V. Better yet, the Tiguan gets that extra passenger space at the cost of no more than a half-inch of overall headroom compared to the Honda, and they offer comparable cargo volume. This makes the Tiguan a much better option for a busy family.

Performance

The Volkswagen Tiguan offers a standard 2.0L TSI engine, offering an impressive 184 horsepower, compared to the standard 1.5L 190 horsepower engine on the CR-V. While the Honda does have a slight edge in overall horsepower, the Tiguan’s 221 lb.-ft. of torque blows away the 179 lb.-ft. of torque in the base trim of the CR-V. Coupled with the Tiguan’s standard 4MOTION All-Wheel Drive, and it’s a more capable SUV, with 1.500 lbs of towing capacity.

Features

Both the Volkswagen Tiguan and the Honda CR-V offer comparable modern conveniences. Both come standard with heated front seats to help you beat the winter. Both have available wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto™ compatibility so you can best use your smartphone. They also have comparable safety features such as adaptive cruise control, and emergency assistance.
