With the standard turbocharged engine in the 2020 VW Tiguan, you will get that extra burst of power when quick acceleration is needed. While both SUVs come with an 8-speed automatic transmission, the Tiptronic® mode of the transmission in the VW Tiguan lets you manually take control over the shifting.


Interior Space of the 2020 VW Tiguan vs Toyota RAV4

Your choice between the Volkswagen Tiguan vs. Toyota RAV4 may come down to how many passengers you usually have in the car with you. If you are looking for a ride that is family friendly and has room for all of your friends, the VW Tiguan is the better option.

This is because it has room to fit seven passengers, while the RAV4 is limited to just five seats. You’ll even have more room in the driver’s seat to get comfortable with almost two more inches of headroom in the front seats of the Volkswagen Tiguan.

Comparing the Technology Featured in Each SUV

When comparing two models nowadays, it is also key to look at what technology they each have. While both have advanced infotainment systems and the latest safety technologies, there are some differences between the tech offered in the RAV4 vs. VW Tiguan.

  • Driver-Assistive Features: Driver-assistive technologies are innovative systems designed to keep you alert and quickly react when needed so you enjoy a safer ride wherever you go. While both come with a lot of these systems standard, the Volkswagen Tiguan comes with a feature that you’d have to upgrade for in the Toyota RAV4. That is the Blind Spot Monitor, which gives you more confidence when changing lanes out on the highway.
  • Remote Capabilities: While both cars have apps you can have on your smartphone that let you unlock and lock your doors remotely, the VW Car-Net® app that comes with the 2020 Volkswagen Tiguan offers even more convenience. This includes finding parking through Parkopedia® before heading into the city. This helps you save both time and money next time you are heading out to dinner or a concert.
