When you want to transport both family and cargo in style, it’s time to turn to the compact SUV. This is a vehicle that will navigate the city with ease on a daily basis but won’t flinch at going beyond the walls of modern civilization for a weekend adventure.
The 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan is a beloved member of the compact SUV class. Dripping with ample power, space, and style, this machine checks all the boxes. With the additional ability to seat up to seven, it gets a leg up on many competitors who limit themselves to only two rows.
One of these competitors is the 2019 Subaru Forester. Let’s pit these two compact SUVs head-to-head and see how they stack up.
