This engine believes that friends who are familiar with Volkswagen are already quite familiar, Volkswagen's tuning has also been pure fire, in normal driving, the speed is generally maintained at about 2000rpm, as a family car can be described as very comfortable, giving people a feeling of not hurrying.
The feeling of the first stage is relatively gentle, but it is necessary to accelerate, especially in the high speed, the feeling of stepping on the throttle and pushing the back is still very obvious, which ensures the safety of driving for overtaking.
The 7-speed dual-clutch transmission fits well, only occasionally feeling some bumps at low speeds. A few days of test drive, the weather was moderate and the air conditioner was not turned on, and the average fuel consumption was 8.4L for 100 kilometers, which was a pretty good result for such a "big guy".
NVH also performs well, driving at 120 km/h at high speeds, whether it is wind noise, tire noise or road noise are well controlled, and the noise is more from the engine.
The steering wheel is very light, but it becomes very calm at high speeds.
The front McPherson + rear multi-link is a common suspension combination at this price point, and the overall is still very German, perhaps to favor home users, and the ride feels less soft than other Volkswagen models.
The real-time model is equipped with a full-journey intelligent assistance system, which can achieve ACC adaptive follow-up and lane keeping in the 0-160 km/h speed range, and this L2-level driver assistance system can be said to meet the daily needs of most people.
In particular, lane keeping assist, in the case of a very obvious lane line, will constantly correct its own direction, for many novice drivers can be described as a good helper.
During the driving process, when the car is close, the exterior mirror will light up yellow, which can play a good reminder for the driver, after all, for the father, the safety performance is definitely the most important.

The wheels are sharper, the wheel size of the real-life model is 235/50 R19, and the tires are selected from the Hankook Vantus Ventus S1 evo3 series.
The tail looks more delicate, using a chrome-treated bilateral exhaust design with a total of four out, which is slightly low-key.
Interior performance:
Sitting in the car, there are still earth-shaking changes from the previous Volkswagen models, and the whole has become younger.
The 12-inch central control large screen, equipped with MOS 3.1 intelligent car connection system, with intelligent voice, air gestures, touch control and other functions, the large screen display, especially in the reversing image can provide more security guarantees.
Support mobile phone interconnection Car-Play, the first time only need to use the original data cable connection, open Siri, that is, automatically start Car-Play, after success, you can choose wireless connection.
Through Car-Play, many operations on mobile phones can be realized, such as texting, of course, during the driving process, the author still recommends not to do so.
The real-life model is equipped with Harman Kardon's speaker in the car, and friends who have a pursuit of sound quality will not be disappointed.
The front seats support eight-way adjustment for good comfort and moderate padding. The ride is spacious, most people can stretch freely in the driver's seat, of course, if you are Yao Ming, then I did not say.
The driver's seat of the live-action model provides three-stop memory function.
The large panoramic skylight is believed to be loved by many Chinese people.
The rear central headrest, armrest/cup holder are also readily available, and the comfort of the rear seats can also meet the needs of long-distance rides, and the wheelbase of nearly 2.8 meters brings a good riding space, especially the legroom, which can achieve good stretching.
The rear exhaust air outlet is standard for the whole series, and the rear independent air conditioner is equipped with other models except for the entry-level model.
Write at the end:
As a "veteran" who has been "fighting" in the Chinese market for many years, Tiguan L still has a good performance, and according to the change of time, there are many designs that are close to the times, overall, at this price, Tiguan L is still very "able to play".
Moreover, from the official understanding, at present, Tiguan L also has a good financial policy, with a down payment of 37,900 yuan, a daily supply as low as 100 yuan to enjoy a 5-year worry-free package, 20% low down payment of 5 years, low interest rate, 5 years of maintenance, for the shy dads in the pocket, you can choose the right policy for yourself.
