All-New 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line 4Motion Review
|
Posted By: Randi Payton on November 04, 2025 Volkswagen introduced the redesigned 2025 Tiguan SEL R-Line 4Motion earlier this year, featuring a stylish and tech-forward new appeal. The compact SUV blends performance, comfort, and innovation. With a sleek new look and upgraded features, this model aims to stand out in the competitive segment. The bold exterior redesign features sharper lines, a wider stance, and a more aggressive front fascia. LED lighting, sporty R-Line accents, and aerodynamic enhancements give it a premium presence. Inside, Volkswagen has revamped the cabin with upgraded materials, a larger infotainment display, and intuitive controls that elevate the driving experience. Stepping inside the Tiguan SEL R-Line, there’s a spacious, upscale interior designed for both comfort and connectivity. Highlights include a 15-inch touchscreen with Volkswagen’s latest infotainment system, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, heated and ventilated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, and ambient lighting with customizable color options. These features make the Tiguan feel more like a luxury SUV than a compact crossover. Power/Performance: Under the hood, the 2025 Tiguan SEL R-Line 4Motion is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine paired with a 48-volt mild-hybrid system that generates 201 horsepower. This setup delivers improved fuel efficiency and smoother acceleration. The 4Motion all-wheel-drive system ensures confident handling in various road conditions, while the sport-tuned suspension adds a dynamic edge to everyday driving. I took the 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line 4Motion on a week-long spin to see if this sharper, smarter SUV can take on the fight against the Japanese and Korean establishment. During that time, VW introduced a new twist by announcing a more powerful turbocharged engine for the 2026 VW Tiquan SEL R-Line. Just as buyers were getting excited about the 2025 Tiguan lineup, Volkswagen surprised the market with the new flagship Tiguan R. This performance-oriented model promises even more power, exclusive styling, and enhanced driving dynamics. It’s a bold move that reshapes the Tiguan lineup and gives enthusiasts something to look forward to. As the 2026 Tiguan R arrived in dealer showrooms this summer, buyers are facing a tough decision: opt for the well-equipped 2025 SEL R-Line or pay a higher price for the 2026 Tiguan R with more power. The final verdict: The 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line 4Motion masterfully blends a modern design, a futuristic cabin, and thrilling performance, delivering excitement in the compact SUV class.
