2024 Volkswagen Tiguan vs. 2024 Honda CR-V

Colmar, PA, drivers have many choices when selecting a reliable compact SUV. Two of the most popular models are the 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan and the 2024 Honda CR-V. This comparison from North Penn Volkswagen will help you decide which vehicle meets your needs and preferences.

Cargo Space and Passenger Capacity

The 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan takes the lead in passenger capacity. It has optional third-row seating, which the Honda CR-V does not. As a result, it can comfortably seat up to seven, perfect for growing families or those who frequently carpool.

Volkswagen Tiguan cargo space depends on your seating configuration. Three-row models offer 12 to 65.3 cubic feet of cargo volume, which increases to 37.6 to 73.4 cubic feet for two-row models. While the Honda CR-V has slightly higher numbers — 39.3 to 76.5 cubes — the difference is close enough that it’s a wash in real-world use.

Driving Dynamics

While Honda likes to tout its SUV’s 190 horsepower (a mere six more horsepower than the Volkswagen model), the 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan has a trick up its sleeve that negates that slight advantage. While its 2.0-liter turbocharged engine gives 184 horsepower, its 221 lb-ft of torque easily bests the Honda model’s 179 lb-ft of torque, resulting in better use of engine power.

Comfort and Convenience Technology

The 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan is designed with the driver in mind. This is most evident in the Digital Cockpit Pro®, which replaces traditional dials with a customizable digital display. The 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, compatible with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, ensures you stay connected. The Honda CR-V offers some of these features but lacks customization and puts wireless capabilities in its more expensive trims.
