The Volkswagen Tiguan is a stylish and technologically advanced compact SUV that combines versatility and driving dynamics in perfect balance. It also offers more space for passengers than most SUVs in the segment.
Here, we compare the 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan with the 2022 Mazda CX-5.
The 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan welcomes your large family
From outside, the 2022 Tiguan is stylish and compact. But inside the cabin, this advanced family vehicle can accommodate more people and more cargo than its rival, thanks to an innovative design and an optional third row. It can transport up to seven passengers comfortably, letting larger families optimize their transport needs without having to upgrade to a midsize SUV. The Mazda CX-5 is limited to five passengers.
As far as cargo space goes, the Volkswagen Tiguan has your family covered. In normal configuration, the Tiguan delivers 1,065 litres of cargo behind the rear seats – which is more than the segment average. Fold the rear seats and the Tiguan deploys up to 2,081 litres of space. The Mazda CX-5 offers fewer possibilities, with only 875 litres when it is full of passengers and 1,687 when the rear seats are folded.
The 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan focusses on style and drivability
Volkswagens have always been known for their calibrated driving dynamics. While maximum horsepower can impress on paper, the spirit of a vehicle lies in a good balance of torque and chassis components. That’s why the 2022 Tiguan is powered by a 2.0-litre, turbocharged four-cylinder unit that deploys 184 hp and 221 lb-ft of torque. This is much more torque than the CX-5’s base engine. It channels the power to an 8-speed transmission, which is a more advanced transmission than the CX-5’s 6-speed.
The Tiguan also has standard 4MOTION AWD system, a system which can conquer more roads thanks to multiple driving modes that are more adapted to our climate than CX-5’s i-Activ system.
The 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan also offers stylish options, like the R-Line package, which comes with unique wheels and accents, as well as a sporty front bumper featuring large air intakes, body-colour lower panels and unique R-Line touches inside and out.
