I often drive the Tiguan L and Tiguan X around the city, with the main differences being space and practicality. The Tiguan L is more like a family minivan, with a super-large trunk that easily fits strollers and suitcases, and even a seven-seat version for taking the whole family on trips—especially comfortable for long drives. The Tiguan X has a sleeker, sportier design, but the rear headroom is a bit tighter, and fitting bulky items can be tricky. The powertrains are similar, both using Volkswagen's 2.0T engine, with comparable fuel consumption at around 6-7 L/100km in the city. However, the X version feels lower and sportier when you sit inside. If I had to recommend, go for the L version for family needs, or the X version for singles or couples who prioritize a cooler look—after all, both are easy to park and suitable for city commutes. Just don’t forget to test-drive to see which fits your actual needs.

As a young enthusiast who loves modifications, I think the biggest difference between the Touareg X and L is the styling. The X version's fastback design is just too cool—add a spoiler and blackened wheels, and it turns heads like crazy. The interior is also much sportier, and it feels rock-solid on the highway. The L version, on the other hand, is more conservative and spacious but lacks character. The engine and chassis are the same, so no surprises there. The X version might cost more to modify due to more aftermarket parts, but fuel consumption is similar—around 8-9 liters per 100 km in the city is normal. I’d recommend young folks go straight for the X version to stay trendy. The L version is more practical but lacks personality. Plus, the X version’s sound system sounds better—worth the extra cash, no need to overthink it.

I prioritize cost-effectiveness when choosing a car, and the starting price of the Tiguan L is 10,000 to 20,000 RMB cheaper than the X, making it a better deal. In terms of features, the L has more spacious interiors with foldable rear seats, which is convenient for moving furniture, while the X has a slightly cramped back row but a cooler exterior design. Fuel consumption is roughly the same, around 7-8 liters per 100 km in the city, and maintenance costs for both are affordable. If you're looking for savings and practicality, the L is the top choice—the X is a bit too flashy. However, the L offers a stable ride and comes with comprehensive safety features.
