The Tiguan is an Attractive SUV

If you've been searching for an SUV that looks modern and comes with great features while still having a reasonable price tag, check out the Volkswagen Tiguan. This SUV, which we proudly carry at Three County Volkswagen in Lyndhurst, is stylish, safe, and reliable. It comes in nine different trims, four of which are all-wheel-drive (4MOTION) versions. A third row is available if you want to accommodate up to seven passengers.

Performance

A turbocharged four-cylinder engine powers the Tiguan. It has 184 horsepower, allowing it to meet the performance expectations of most consumers. This engine is matched with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Power delivery and transitions are smooth at various speeds, whether you're accelerating, decelerating, or just cruising along. Tiguans with front-wheel drive can achieve an estimated 29 miles per gallon on the highway and 22 miles per gallon in the city. Having all-wheel drive lowers fuel economy by a small amount; the trims with all-wheel drive can get up to 27 miles per gallon on the highway and 20 miles per gallon when driving in downtown Newark.

High-Tech Features

On the base models, which are the S and S with 4MOTION, there is a 6.5-inch color display on which you can control music playback and access other services. Bluetooth capability helps keep your hands on the wheel, and it allows you to stream certain types of media. For charging, you can use two front USB ports and one rear USB port. A standard feature that many will find appealing is that this VW can act as a Wi-Fi hotspot.

Moving up to the next trims - the SE R-Line Black and SE R-Line Black with 4MOTION - you find several additions. These enhancements include a wireless charger, one AUX-in jack, CD player, and voice control. The most significant difference is that these trims come with an eight-inch color display, and this greater size makes it easier to interact with the system.

If you want to take advantage of built-in navigation, you'll have to upgrade to at least the SEL trim. Navigation can be handy, as it can take traffic into account and gets you from point A to point B as quickly as possible. The SEL and SEL with 4MOTION models also come with SiriusXM All Access. Other technological features like remote engine start and the Volkswagen Digital Cockpit can make a difference in overall convenience. The digital cockpit is bright and clear, and it has a user-friendly interface that drivers around Clifton and Jersey City will enjoy using.

The SEL Premium R-Line with 4MOTION is the highest trim available. Here, an overhead view camera can give you a 360-degree view of your vehicle. While most of the technology is the same as in the SEL models, the SEL Premium R-Line with 4MOTION has a standard Fender premium audio system that noticeably improves quality.
