For now, let's dive into our comparison between the 2024 models of the Tiguan and the Taos.
What's the difference between the 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan and the 2024 Volkswagen Taos?
Size
For starters, the Tiguan is a compact SUV while the Taos is a subcompact SUV. While the standard trims for both SUVs seat 5 people, the Tiguan offers more legroom, and even the option of third-row seating on certain trims, allowing you to seat 7 people comfortably.
While the Tiguan is in the same category as the Honda CR-V, the Toyota RAV4, the Hyundai Tucson, and the Kia Sportage, the Volkswagen Taos can be compared to slightly smaller SUVs such as the Hyundai Kona, the Kia Seltos, the Mazda CX-30, and the Chevy Trailblazer.
Engine
While the standard Tiguan boasts a 2L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, the Taos comes with a 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. Which makes sense, considering the Taos is a subcompact SUV.
Fuel Economy
Given its size and function, the Taos offers a better fuel economy than the Tiguan. While the latter is designed for higher payloads and a better towing capacity, the former is more suited to simple city driving.
Price
Because the Tiguan is larger and offers more muscle, it comes at a higher price than the Taos. But the difference isn't significant.
So, which one is right for me?
Both SUVs are fantastic in their own right and are considered significant upgrades on their respective predecessors. If you ask us-it boils down to what you're looking for in your next SUV.
