The 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan S is a gas SUV with seating for 5 and 33.8 cu ft of cargo space.

Its MSRP ranges from $30,805 with front-wheel drive to $32,305 with all-wheel drive. Both versions use a 201-hp 2.0L turbo 4-cylinder engine and an 8-speed automatic transmission.

The front-wheel-drive version returns an EPA-estimated 29 mpg combined, carries a maximum payload of 959 lbs and tows up to 1,500 lbs. All-wheel drive changes those figures to an EPA-estimated 25 mpg combined, a 1,014-lb maximum payload and 1,800 lbs of maximum towing.

Standard cabin equipment includes heated cloth front seats, a 12.9-inch infotainment display, 7 speakers, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless charging and dual-zone front climate control. Adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, blind spot and lane departure warnings, rear cross-traffic alert, a rearview camera, and front and rear parking sensors are also standard. The basic and powertrain warranties run for 48 months or 50,000 miles.
