In advance of a more thorough update for the 2022 model year, VW makes a few changes to the Tiguan for 2021. The base S and mid-range SE models receive new 17-inch wheel designs and the latter of the two receives standard adaptive cruise control. Likewise, the top-spec SEL Premium R-Line model gains a power-adjustable front passenger's seat.

PROS
Agile driving behavior,
optional third row of seats,
fuel-efficient powertrain.

CONS
Poky acceleration,
firm ride,
dowdy interior design.

The 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan compact crossover is spacious and comfortable, and also the league-leader in modesty.

PROS
Big interior
Smooth ride
Automatic emergency braking standard
Big cargo area
Straight shooter

CONS
…and a little boring
Not very fuel-efficient
Small third row
New one on the way

By:

thecarconnection.com

Pros
Still attractively styled after all these years,
high-end cabin finishings,
quite capacious for a compact SUV.

Cons
So-so acceleration with P250 engine,
more expensive than most rivals,
ho-hum handling.

By:

caranddriver.com

Pros
Looks fantastic
Spacious boot with practical touches
Lots of advanced driving tech

Cons
Alternatives have roomier back seats
Expensive to buy and run
Base model doesn't get sat-nav
