Tiguan R-Line : Best option for car enthusiasts.

One of my friends booked this car & we have tested the car in all terms, mostly around 50 km on the highway, the driving dynamics are too good compared to the competition, but in the city & potholes, the suspension is stiff, which is not good. Overall all all the features in the car are worthy, nothing extra like always VW cars offer. I'll rate this car 4.5/5.

Must Read my experience

We used nearly 6-7 years after that again we purchased the same Toyota Fortuner... Amazing car with premium feel and comfort. Comfortably 8 family members can seat. We travel a lot around India like Ladakh, Gujarat, Rajasthan and we never faced any problem.

Nice interior

Amazing driving experience. Nice interior. No noise... Uplifted dashboard.., nice music system. Amazing infotainment.....superlative grip on the road..... No jerk.. comfortable....,...
