Volkswagen Tiguan review: Easy to see why it’s so popular

The Tiguan will be a great first taste of long-range pure electric motoring for many - (Volkswagen)

Since its launch in 2007, more than 7.5 million Volkswagen Tiguan have been sold all around the world. It’s VW’s best-selling car – beating even the mighty Golf – and is a regular UK top 10 best-seller. This third-generation version was introduced in 2024, with the range including a long-range plug-in hybrid version called eHybrid.

With a range of 90 miles, it’s far more capable than earlier iterations, and will be a great first taste of long-range pure electric motoring for many. The fuel-efficient petrol engine is there to take over on longer trips, while the Tiguan eHybrid’s ability to use DC rapid chargers means topping up on the move might be an option, too.
