2024 Volkswagen Tiguan SUV Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan is available in four trim levels: S, SE, SE R-Line Black and SEL R-Line. All come with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (184 horsepower, 221 lb-ft of torque) and an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive and a third-row seat are standard with S, SE and SE R-Line Black trims. All-wheel drive is optional for these trims, but adding it eliminates the third row. The SEL R-Line includes standard all-wheel drive, hill descent control and two rows.
Which Tiguan trim does Edmunds recommend?
The midlevel SE is more expensive than the entry-level Tiguan S, but the upgrades are worth the extra spend. A power liftgate, upgraded front seats, wireless Apple and Android connectivity, and dual-zone climate control make daily driving more comfortable and convenient, while the synthetic leather upholstery adds a more premium feel. It also lacks the annoying capacitive touch steering wheel controls of the upper SE R-Line Black trim.
