Volkswagen Tiguan 1.5 eHybrid Elegance (2026)
The Tiguan is Europe's default family SUV and one of Volkswagen's biggest sellers, the sensible all-rounder that millions of buyers choose when they want space, solidity, and a familiar badge. The latest third-generation car grows roomier and more refined, and the standout 1.5 eHybrid plug-in offers a usable real-world electric range that covers most commutes on battery alone before the petrol engine takes over for longer trips. It suits the family that wants low running costs and company-car tax benefits but isn't ready to commit fully to an EV. The redesigned cabin is plush but leans heavily on touch controls and a rotary screen dial. Cross-shop the Skoda Kodiaq for more space per euro or the ID.4 if you can go fully electric.
A good time to buy — it's at its lowest price on record, right around its 90-day average.
