Tiguan L 2.0 is divided into two models. Below are the specific fuel consumption ranges for the two Tiguan L 2.0 models: 1. The fuel consumption range of the Tiguan L 2.0T 186 is between 7.60~9.89 liters per 100 kilometers. 2. The fuel consumption range of the Tiguan L 2.0T 220 is between 8.59~11.20 liters per 100 kilometers. More information about the Tiguan L is as follows: 1. The Tiguan L is a compact SUV under Volkswagen, with a length, width, and height of 4712/1839/1673mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2791mm. 2. The Tiguan L is equipped with two engines, one is a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, and the other is a 1.8-liter turbocharged engine. 3. The front suspension of the Tiguan L uses a MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension uses a multi-link independent suspension.
I've been driving the Tiguan L 2.0T for almost three years, mainly for daily commutes. In city traffic jams, the fuel consumption can reach 12L per 100km, while it drops to around 9L during highway cruising, averaging about 11L. The car has strong power and quick acceleration, but fuel costs aren't cheap – filling up twice a month costs nearly 1,000 yuan, slightly higher than some Japanese SUVs. I recommend avoiding sudden acceleration, frequent braking, and setting the air conditioning temperature a bit higher to save fuel. Check tire pressure monthly and maintain the standard value, as incorrect pressure increases fuel consumption. Overall, this car is fun to drive with moderate fuel consumption. It's less economical than smaller-displacement vehicles but still decent for family use.
As a young car owner, I pay close attention to the fuel consumption performance of the Tiguan L 2.0T. Actual tests show that urban driving typically results in fuel consumption fluctuating between 10-13L, while highway driving stabilizes at 8-9L. The turbocharged engine equipped in this car delivers strong power and impressive acceleration, but it comes with slightly higher fuel consumption. Compared to similar Japanese models like the Honda CR-V 2.0L, which may consume 1-2L less fuel, the Tiguan offers a more sporty driving experience. I recommend gently pressing the accelerator, reducing idle waiting time, and maintaining a steady speed whenever possible. In the long run, the annual fuel cost may be a few thousand yuan higher, but the driving pleasure is worth it. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning carbon deposits and changing engine oil, can help keep fuel consumption at a relatively low level.
