I tested the Fortuner and Tucson, after driving the Tucson i drove the Fortuner, immediately it felt like i was teleported back to 90s..😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Proud owner of a Tucson. It’s been just over 3 months since I got the delivery and it already has 10, 000+ kms under its belt! Finished a 4000 km road trip from central India to Kerala and man oh man, I fell in love with this car!

The Tiguan no doubt is a formidable competitor, but I think when it comes to comfort and features, the Tucson is heads and shoulders above anything in this range.

I test drove both cars and selected the Tucson. It feels a segment above from the inside, what with more interior room (back seat space, back seat recline angle, width, length etc.) and plushness. The music system on the Tucson is also far better and to get the most out of it, use a USB drive with high res FLAC or WAV files. The Tucson also fares better over rough roads. The Tiguan front suspension does a loud double rebound every time it hits a sharp speed breaker, probably due to limited suspension travel. Ultimately, you should check out both cars personally before coming to a conclusion. The best version of the Tucson to go in for is the Diesel Signature AWD. Some other notes - Tucson has bigger tyres (235/60 R18). However as these are 103H rated, better to change them to 103V (Contisport Contact5) or 107W (Goodyear Efficientgrip Performance SUV). Michelin has a very good option of Pilot Sport 4 SUV with 109W but these had been pulled out of India about one and a half years ago. The Primacy is available in 103V, but these are overpriced and the Continental / Goodyear options are both better and cheaper.

People asking for a diesel on the tiguan but I have driven cars with the 2L tsi 190bhp, 320NM and honestly it is a very good engine and has great performance and is a high revving engine so point being don't go over the spec sheet numbers always or the type of engine on the basis of fuel

Me watching 😂 even if I can't afford bicycle

[arjunrajput]

Terrific presenter. Talking absolutely crisp content without wasting any time.

[murdrusgod]

Tiguan looks beautiful classical design 👍

Also for clarification the reason why Tucson got only 3 stars in the Latin Ncap test which was done recently was not because of weak body structure or build quality. The body structure was rated as Stable. The reason was isofix placement was not rightly placed and also there was no option to turn of seatbelts. Latin Ncap is very strict.
Whatever car it may be it is advisable to read the full report and know the reason why it was rated low or high so we can make better buying decisions.

Also in 2022 it was tested by IIHS and received Top Safety Pick+ award. As we know Tucson scored 5 stars in Euro Ncap.

The bottom line is Tucson is a very safe car and a 5 star rated car.

One small correction. Tucson is manufactured in INDIA so we do not know the NCAP. European versions always score better than Hyundai’s indian manufactured cars.
Meanwhile, Tiguan is imported as CBUs from Portugal and is rated 5 ⭐️ in EURO NCAP. I own a Tiguan 2022. It’s amazing. It feels like it’s built like a TANK.

[ashishsomashekar]

Ppl talk without even sitting in a tucson, it offers a whole lot more for the buck and is worth it

[azadkirti]

Own VW Tiguan Allspace 7-seater 2021, some correction, 1. Driver seat has automatic multiple adjustable options, 2. Boot has soft roll-on detachable cover. Yes, car design is old but man in sub 50 lac premium SUV today, there is none that stand up to VW Tiguan, whether on ride quality or safety. I just did a 3400+ return journey and man, the experience is better than Fortuner which I drove from Pune to Goa 1200 Kns return journey. This one is no-brainer

[abhilashes]

For god's sake pls stop wasting time on the bottle holder comparison in these reveiews. Nobody cares for it! The last thing i will do it is to buy a car just because it has 2 additional bottle holders😂

[journeysman]

Spot on conclusion & tok the point. Nicely done gents 👍

[saswatmishra]

Kodiaq has got the driving dynamics of Tiguan and luxury, premiumness of Tucson. L&K variant of Kodiaq is much better value than the top variants of Tucson and Tiguan, although it is slightly expensive, it is offering everything for the price tag.

[raghavendrats]

Tiguan all day 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 I am proud to be VW Tiguan owner ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[aklantapratimmazumdar]

People rarely buy Hyundai car that costs 40 lakh..better they will choose fortuner

[robertkumar]

Vw is for people who prefer car with better safety, driving dynamics and fun to drive basically marured car owners. Tuscon is for people who want overall premium and comfortable family car with tech specifications. VW new model coming in india has all tech features along with 15 inch screen. New VW will be dope the only concern is how much costly it will be. Anything below 42, 43 will be absolute good pricing.

[tusharmahaley]

I’ll prefer car with less features than car with 0 or 3 NCAP.
Plus I’ve driven this VW 2L engine. Really fun to drive.❤

[vikk_konni]

No confusion any day Tiguan or kodiaq😅

[maskedrider]

Not a fair comparison
Petrol 2.0 of VW should be compared with 2.0 petrol from Hyundai
VW is 4 wheel
Hyundai 2.0 petrol does NOT have a 4 wheel drive
180+ vs 150+ of horse power no comparison

This review needs a re-review
