One of the most exciting vehicles in the Volkswagen collection is the 2024 VW Tiguan. This compact SUV delivers all the functional features you need in your daily vehicle, particularly if you have kids or live in the suburbs. Learn why the base Tiguan S is so impressive before you visit your VW dealer.

1. Seven-Passenger Seating
The S model has seating for seven passengers with three rows of seating. The first-row seats have a heat setting for your comfort. The second-row seats are bench-style seats with a 40/20/40 fold and can slide forward to make room for third-row passengers. The third-row seats have an even 50/50 split-fold.
2. IQ.DRIVE Technology
IQ.DRIVE driver-assistance technology is another highlight for this family SUV. Features like adaptive cruise control work to match the speed of your vehicle to the surrounding traffic by maintaining a preset following distance to the car ahead, and it works with autonomous emergency braking to ensure your safety.
3. Eco-Friendly Performance
The base Tiguan has an estimated fuel efficiency of 24 MPG in urban areas and 31 MPG on the freeway. A full tank can produce a driving range of 367 miles in the city and 474 miles on the highway. The key to this eco-friendly performance is the 2.0-liter I4 engine that produces 184 horsepower and 221 lb-ft of torque.
4. Spacious Cargo Room
The trunk area of this SUV has a cargo capacity of 12 cubic feet. However, when the second and third-row seats are folded down, this SUV has a maximum cargo capacity of 65.3 cubic feet. Because the back seats can be folded in any configuration you need, you can easily load tall sports gear like hockey sticks or golf clubs, or even accommodate small furniture.
5. Practical Exterior Features
Finally, the S trim comes with a collection of practical features that help you manage challenging weather conditions. The foldable, power-adjustable outside mirrors have heated glass to prevent ice and frost from obstructing your view. The heated washer nozzles on the front windshield help with clearing away snow in the winter. Standard rain-detecting windshield wipers automatically swipe away rain at an ideal pace to keep your view of the road clear.
This VW SUV also has exterior features like roof rails and LED daytime running lights. The roof rails provide a stable base to install roof-mounted accessories for all of your favorite outdoor activities, while the daytime running lights provide illumination on overcast days and at dawn or dusk.
