This year has brought about the reinvention of the Volkswagen Tiguan as an SUV putting it in the firing line to be a competitor to the BMW X1, on its previous release it might as well have been an entirely different vehicle, the vehicle is still designed mainly for on-road use, but the four wheel drive versions now feature adjustable drive modes to help you tackle different conditions. With various different engine choices the best selling is the 148bhp 2.0 litre diesel model and it is easy to see why that is as when it is offering a strong blend of performance and fuel economy. The VW Tiguan provides a smooth ride by small SUV standards and the dashboard resembles pretty much every other Volkswagen vehicle with switched laid out logically, the steering wheel avoiding becoming inundated with too many buttons. All models of this vehicle have an 8 inch touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth connectivity, DAB radio and USB sockets and as the model gets higher so do the specifications available within the system. The touch screen is easy to use and quick to respond. Depending on the model the Volkswagen Tiguan can tow up to 2500kg which is a fair amount for a family car and would be able to successfully tow any caravan on a longer journey. If you are interested in towing with the Volkswagen Tiguan tow bars can be purchased from PF Jones and fitted nationwide. The vehicle itself would support the transport of three adults within the rear of the vehicle and the only issue regarding space would be the legroom of the middle passenger because of the transmission tunnel, but it isn’t the biggest issue.
