Is the 2020 Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line the GTI of SUV's?

Follow Redline on social channels:

Looking more like a #TiguanGTI, the 2020 #TiguanRLine adds some much needed visual enhancements to the #VolkswagenTiguan for 2020. Riding on 20" wheels and tires, a unique front and rear fascia, and some tweaks to the interior, it should help the #Tiguan stand out in the ultra crowded compact SUV segment. Just don't expect GTI performance with only 184 HP under the hood.

This car is on par with every other SUV in the class, it’s not meant to be a street racer. It’s a beautiful comfortable everyday driver built for the average everyday driver. In my opinion it is one of the best if not the best.

I agree with almost everything said in the video. One important thing to note is the EA888 engine in thjs Tiguan is that it's incredibly tunable. I wish he would mention that. With a simple ECU APR tune you can get 60 hp and 80 lbs tq more. The engine just need to be unlocked for max potential.

Idk why but I love the bloopers. Maybe it shows that even the best can mess up

I just recently bought a Tiguan and as I continued driving it I started to appreciate the Tiguan alot more. It's runs so smoothly, the brakes are perfect. It really pulls and it's such a comfortable and fun experience to drive. I had a Passat before which was also a good car but the Tiguan is definitely on another level.

My man made sure that Range Rover was in the background on every shot. Thank you for spicing it up. Shout out to the editor 🙌

Love my 2018 tiguan have stuffed it for a road trip with my wife myself father in law and 2 daughters and cargo in the back and it's a great cruiser and road trip vehichale cant challenge a Ferrari or BMW but I didn't get it for that. My sel premium with 12 year/120 thousand miles maintenance plan I got from vw cant complain. Love my vw.

Congrats to the best reviewer on YT. Love how you see all the little things other reviewers just skip on, like the door shut, remote key quality etc.
The main reason I bought three VWs in the past five years was the high interior quality. Really disappointing to see all the cost cuts making the VW just another brand. At the same time the asians and especially the koreans are really stepping up on the interior quality.

Great job on this video! I have a 2018 sel and see no reason to trade up. The power issue of which you speak has never been a problem for me, especially when I’m getting 27 mpg. I love my car. You didn’t mention how quiet it is. So airtight. 🦙

I have a 2018 just like this except black. It's styled well and well equipped. Think of it as a budget Q5, not a GTI suv and you'll be happy!

He didn't talk while accelerating this time! Love it!

[harshitbaweja]

I saw this car parked in the background in your Velar video and I knew it was gonna come up.

[scotnoco]

I love how this suv looks! Coming from a golf 1.4 T I don't think this will be slower than that ! This is definitely in my list up there for handling and looks.

Very good review, you talked about everything important. Good job!

I have a GTI - and got this for my wife. I actually like how it rides, it’s comfortable and really well refined. It’s not quick (at all), but the trade-off is that I can get 6.9 l/100k on a simple highway trip. As a family vehicle to ship along our two big dogs, it was the best option for us.

I just bought mine about a week ago and I can honestly say it is perfect for me. I don’t need all the power and 0-60 in no time flat, it has enough get up and go for me and I love that on the sticker it says I should get 23mpg average and I get almost 30. I love all the tech features, for sure.
Good, honest review of this vehicle.

[bellazroddaz]

I got the manual in the uk 2018 model R-Line and it’s a beautiful vehicle to drive, well happy with it

VW NEEDS to offer the Tiguan with cooled front seats & heated rear seats because other competition in the segment already offer that

[ricksgiraldo]

I live in Colombia and I have that car. Really love it. Here it comes with less HP (180) but about 10% more torque and also 7speed DSG transmission. Man! The car flies, I’ve drag raced it with all the competition and it’s always ahead, I’ve even tried it against some 3.3 and 3.5 naturally aspirated engines and it also does really good.

[thrashful]

Best looking inside and out in its segment it does need more power or a hybrid would be cool.

why the hell VW still keep those three climate control knobs, it actually makes this car look like it comes from 20 years ago.
