The Volkswagen Tiguan has always been a better choice when it comes to compact SUVs. It offers unique European styling filled with technologies, but it can also fulfill your dynamic driving needs thanks to its powerful and responsive turbocharged engine backed by precisely calibrated German engineering. The 2021 edition of the Tiguan is offered Trendline, Comfortline, UNITED, and Highline trims.
Here, we compare the 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan to the 2021 Honda CR-V.
The 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan is quicker and more capable
The Tiguan will please drivers at heart thanks to a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that produces 184 horsepower and 221 lb-ft of torque that peaks as soon as 1,600 rpm. It is fitted with a sporty 8-Speed Tiptronic transmission that sends the power to the front wheels, or the renowned 4MOTION AWD system depending on the model.
The CR-V uses a less potent turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder that only generates 179 lb-ft of torque, which is much less responsive than the Tiguan. Moreover, the CR-V is fitted with a less capable continuously variable transmission that negatively impacts driving dynamics.
The Volkswagen Tiguan also offers a selection of drive modes, like a very practical Snow mode made for messy Canadian weather, but also an efficient Eco mode and even a custom Off-Road mode that lets you tailor everything from steering to throttle and transmission so you can take full advantage of the trails.
The 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan welcomes more passengers
The 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan is available with a third-row package. This is very useful for drivers with larger families who don’t necessarily want to upgrade to a mid-size SUV, but still want the option to bump up the passenger space from five to seven. This feature is not available with the Honda CR-V.
The 2021 Tiguan is also backed by one of the industry’s best warranties. It features a New Vehicle Warranty that covers four years or 80,000 km (whichever comes first). That’s one year and 20,000 km more than what the CR-V offers with Honda’s equivalent warranty coverage.
To summarize, the Tiguan is more responsive, more capable and more adaptable to your family’s needs than the Honda CR-V. Not to mention it is also much more stylish! You can shop for your car online with us. Our representatives are waiting for your call and can answer all your questions.
