Trending Questions on Volkswagen Tiguan - Answered by Autocar Experts
I’m planning to buy a third car but torn between the Mercedes GLA (luxury) and the Škoda Kodiaq (premium and larger). I already have a Honda City 5th Gen and a Toyota Hycross Hybrid. Which one makes more sense to buy?
A Skoda Kodiaq is better equipped, more spacious, and it is more powerful than the Mercedes GLA petrol. A Volkswagen Tiguan R Line is also something you can consider, which is a bit sportier to drive than the Kodiaq, and now with huge discounts, is a tempting option.
Hello, I am planning to upgrade my 2019 Kia Seltos GTX Plus petrol manual to a more premium SUV. I was considering the BMW X1 and Mercedes-Benz GLA, but after the launch of the Tiguan R-Line, I really liked it. My only concern is the price since it is a CBU. After the GST revision, I was able to get a deal for ₹52 lakh on road. I would like your advice on whether I should go ahead and buy it. My concerns are whether I will get enough support from VW India regarding parts, and also the resale value. Kindly advise.
The Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line is enjoyable to drive but is undoubtedly expensive. Regular maintenance should not be a problem, but the availability of parts could be an issue in case of accident repairs. Expensive imported cars also typically do not retain their value unless there is special market interest.
As an alternative, consider the Skoda Kodiaq, which is essentially the same car underneath but offers more features and a generally plusher interior. Parts availability will also be better for the Kodiaq.
If driving experience is a priority, the Audi Q3 is also worth considering. It may not be cutting-edge inside, but it is engaging to drive with a strong petrol engine. With the next-generation Q3 expected in India next year, you could push for big discounts on the current model.
