At Matthews Volkswagen of Vestal, we know that vehicle comparisons are a core component of shopping for a new vehicle. That's why we're proud to help drivers in our surrounding communities compare the Volkswagen Taos and the upcoming 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan. While both models share similar amenities, we're happy to highlight features that allow drivers to choose the ideal option for their daily commutes and weekend adventures.

Performance
Under the hood, the Volkswagen Taos provides plenty of versatility with a 1.5-liter TSI® turbocharged engine that produces up to 174 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. In comparison, the 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan will feature a refreshing 2.0-liter TSI® turbocharged engine that produces up to 201 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque. Both models use an 8-speed automatic transmission, allowing for smooth gear changes as you cruise around Binghampton, NY.
Interior
Inside the cabin, the Volkswagen Taos and Volkswagen Tiguan deliver a sleek dashboard design, available leather upholstery, and optional heated and ventilated front seats to provide year-round comfort near Endicott, NY. While official cargo capacity numbers for the 2025 Tiguan haven't been released, the Tiguan only offers two-row seating, boosting cargo capacity compared to the previous generation. While the 2025 Volkswagen Taos model is smaller than the Tiguan, drivers still receive up to 66.0 cubic feet of total cargo space for their weekend getaways.
Exterior
Around the outside, the Volkswagen Tiguan and Volkswagen Taos share iconic VW styling with LED projector headlights and LED Daytime Running Lights, ensuring optimal visibility in low light conditions around Johnson City, NY.
