But for now, let's talk about those other two SUVs:
What are the key differences between the 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan and the 2024 Volkswagen Taos?
Size
The Taos is a subcompact SUV, while the Tiguan is a compact SUV. And while both of those might sound comparable in size, the Taos can seat 5 people while the Tiguan can seat up to 7 (on certain trims with third-row seating).
The 2024 Taos can be compared to SUVs like the Hyundai Kona, the Kia Seltos, the Mazda CX-30, and the Chevy Trailblazer. The Tiguan, on the other hand, is in the same category as the Honda CR-V, the Toyota RAV4, the Hyundai Tucson, and the Kia Sportage.
Engine
The Taos comes with an efficient and capable 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. Owing to its size and focus on performance, the Tiguan boasts a 2L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that allows it more control over the driving experience.
Fuel Economy
The Tiguan was designed to carry heavier payloads, while the Taos is great for city driving. Which means the former has a lower fuel rating than the latter. But it isn't a significant difference.
Price
Because the Tiguan is larger, it costs slightly more than the Taos.
So, which one is right for me?
Both SUVs are great choices and really popular among their respective fans. Identifying the correct pick for you comes down to what you're looking for in your next SUV.
For example, if you need more room for the family and want an SUV with more space for your belongings, you might be better off with a new 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan for sale in Jacksonville and the surrounding areas.
If you're focused on fuel economy and a good mix of features and affordability, then we'd recommend a new 2024 Volkswagen Taos for sale in Jacksonville and the surrounding areas.
Either way, we're convinced you won't regret your decision. So, swing by Sport Durst Volkswagen of Jacksonville today, and let us help you get behind the wheel of your dream SUV.
