Volkswagen Tiguan

Bought the car after reviewing multiple options and must say the car is a beast. Power, features you get everything, comfort could have been slightly better but no complaints. Better than most other marquee brands if you look at the price value.

A good all rounder SUV

A good SUV that gives the driver all the possible comfort to travel night and day without any tiredness. Strong engine and gear box. Powerful and excellent value for money. All wheel drive is a blessing and it could be used for moderate off roading as well.
