Why buy a used Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace?

The Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace has a clear sense of quality the moment you climb on board. All the surfaces you touch regularly are trimmed in soft-feeling materials and there's careful use of piano-black and aluminium-effect trim throughout to lift the atmosphere. Its interior is simply palatial, especially in five-seat mode with the second-row seats slid all the way for acres of legroom. The sixth and seventh seats are best saved for children or small passengers for brief trips, but are handy to have in a pinch.

Popular Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace trims for sale at Motorpoint

Models built until late-2020 were sold in Match, SEL and R-Line Tech trims. After the 2020 update, these were replaced by Life, Elegance and R-Line respectively.

Match models get 19-inch alloy wheels, adaptive cruise control, automatic lights and wipers, all-round parking sensors, a reversing camera, climate control and keyless entry. You also get an eight-inch infotainment system with built-in sat nav, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. This was renamed to Life for late-2020 and onwards cars with the spec sheet mostly unchanged.

SEL adds upgraded LED headlights, a digital driver's screen to replace the gauge cluster, ambient interior lighting, a panoramic sunroof, adaptive suspension, an automatic boot lid and heated front seats. This trim became Elegance from late-2020 on, adding a heated steering wheel and remiving the adaptive suspension.

Sporty R-Line Tech gets 20-inch alloy wheels, a sporty R-Line body kit, lower sports suspension, a 360º parking camera and front sports seats. This was simply renamed to R-Line in late 2020.

Owning a used Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace

Life with the Tiguan Allspace, like so many other Volkswagen models, is mostly focused on keeping things easy. The dashboard layout is easy to get your head around and the car's handling feels secure and predictable, even over craggy British roads. All models deliver strong fuel economy but the TDI diesel models excel here in particular, with the ability to cover hundreds of miles between refills. While you won't want to make regular use of the cramped third row, it's useful if you have occasional extra passengers to cart around and, once folded away, reveals a simply massive cargo area behind the front two rows.

Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace FAQs

There's just one version of the Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace – a seven-seat, five-door large SUV with a hatchback boot lid. Nearly new buyers will find both pre-facelift models made up until 2020 and facelifted cars built from late 2020 onwards. The easiest way to distinguish the two is the headlights, which are square on the older models, but have a pronounced point at the edge on newer cars.

It's mostly the same car mechanically as the Skoda Kodiaq and SEAT Tarraco, as well as sharing most of its parts and engines with the regular five-seat Volkswagen Tiguan.

To fit all that practicality, the Tiguan Allspace is a big car, measuring in at more than 4.7 metres long. That means it takes up about the same amount of room on the road as a plush saloon like the BMW 3 Series.

It's also within a few centimetres of its key rivals, the Kia Sorento, Hyundai Santa Fe and Peugeot 5008.

If you cover a range of urban driving environments with the odd longer journey, look to one of the Tiguan's petrol engines. The 1.5-litre 150hp version is quick enough, but we prefer the effortless performance you get from the 190hp 2.0-litre version – this also gains standard-fit four-wheel drive and an automatic gearbox.

If you cover longer distances more regularly, consider one of the popular diesel engines. The entry-level 150hp version delivers a lot of power low-down in the rev range so is probably enough for most buyers and, when mated to the manual gearbox and front-wheel drive, can return impressive economy figures. Again, higher-end options gain four-wheel drive and an auto gearbox, but we're not convinced there's much need to trade up from the entry-level diesel.

Yes. Four-wheel drive – badged as 4Motion – is widely available across the Tiguan Allspace lineup. You won't find it on the entry-level 150hp petrol engine, but all other engines either include it as an option or as standard equipment.

While it does improve grip on slippery surfaces, most buyers won't gain much from selecting a four-wheel-drive model. You can ensure you Tiguan Allspace performs well in cold weather regardless of how many driven wheels it has by fitting a set of winter tyres.

Yes – all versions of the Tiguan Allspace come with seven seats as standard. That means two in the front, three across the second row, and a sixth and seventh seat that fold out of the boot floor. The regular Volkswagen Tiguan only comes with five seats.

The third-row seats are quite small, however, so be aware they're probably best for children or small adults over short hops – passengers won't be comfortable travelling back there for long periods.

The regular Volkswagen Tiguan was already a great family SUV, so the addition of a larger boot and a third row of seats simply adds an extra layer of practicality.

It's not the most affordable option in this class, nor is it the most stylish, but the Tiguan Allspace's broad range of talents make it arguably all the family car you're ever going to need.
