2021 Volkswagen Tiguan vs. 2022 Hyundai Tucson: Spacious And Refined

Packed with German style and engineering, the Volkswagen is a popular compact SUV because it provides powerful accelerations, unique technologies and plenty of space for passengers and cargo in a refined package. While some makes only focus on value and/or lowering fuel consumptions, the Volkswagen Tiguan manages to do both, without compromising on the refined, premium feel it’s known for. 

Here, we compare the Volkswagen Tiguan to the 2022 Hyundai Tucson.

The 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan is all about driving dynamics

The 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan delivers maximum power and performance. It uses a powerful four-cylinder turbocharged 2.0-litre engine that outputs 184 hp and 221 lb-ft of torque to move all four wheels thanks to the available renowned 4MOTION AWD system.

The main engine in the 2022 Hyundai Tucson is a naturally aspirated four-cylinder 2.5-litre unit that outputs much less torque, with only 178 lb-ft. This strongly impairs the Tucson’s driving dynamics and accelerations.

The hybrid options on the 2022 Tucson may offer more power, but their reliability has yet to be proven, and they come at a higher price.

The 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan provides unique features inside and out

Choosing the 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan brings many possibilities to the table. This compact SUV comes standard with unique features like refined textures and materials inside, but buyers can also opt for an optional R-Line package, which adds distinctive bumpers and front grille that bring a sporty and refined feel, 19" Trenton alloy wheels and aluminum door sills featuring the R-Line badge for the exterior, and unique heated multifunction steering wheel and brushed stainless steel pedals.

The Fender premium audio system is also a unique optional feature with the Tiguan, as well as many standard on road and off road modes than can recalibrate the powertrain’s systems to provide optimal driving conditions.

But one of the top unique features the Tiguan has over the Tucson is the option to add a third row of passengers, multiplying the possibilities for your growing family by bumping the passenger space from five to seven.
