Cars.com Names 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan Best Compact SUV Of 2017

The compact SUV class is one of the most competitive segments in the entire automotive industry in 2017. Cars.com has just named the 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan as their choice for the best compact SUV available in 2017.

As new vehicle consumers continue to show their preference for SUVs above all other automobiles, Volkswagen has crafted their redesigned Tiguan model to meet the needs and desires of shoppers and Cars.com agrees that VW hit the mark with their all-new 2018 Tiguan SUV.

“The 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan impressed the judges with its roominess and value,” said Jennifer Newman, Editor-in-Chief, Cars.com. “The cargo capability is top of the class, making this small SUV a huge advantage for shoppers concerned about getting the most room for the money. The Tiguan is also a great option for families, earning the highest possible marks in Cars.com’s Car Seat Check.”

Aside from being a great value buy for families, Cars.com judges appreciated the design quality of the Tiguan and often overlooked areas to new car buyers like outward visibility.

“The seat design, padding and recline-and-slide adjustments make it the grown-up choice,” said Cars.com’s Washington, D.C. Bureau Chief Fred Meier. Cars.com’s Managing Editor, Joe Bruzek said the Tiguan’s small pillars and tall windows provide “a great view of the road from all angles.”

Those looking for maximum versatility in terms of cargo space also should consider the Tiguan, which offers a flat load floor and enough space to accommodate just about anything you’d want to put into an SUV, including a 65-inch-long TV.

If technology is what you’re looking for in your next SUV, the 2018 Tiguan excels there as well. Offering an available 8-inch infotainment screen, the Tiguan provides an easy-to-use interface with volume and tuning dials as well as compatibility with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

And Volkswagen’s available 12.3-inch Digital Cockpit display gives owners a new unique look to their instrument cluster with full-color driver profiles, wide map navigation views, and key vehicle information and diagnostics.

With all of these features and options available to compact SUV shoppers, it’s clear why Cars.com chose the all-new 2018 Tiguan as their top choice for the best compact SUV in 2017.
