In terms of performance, the VW Tiguan boasts an impressive 184 horsepower and 221 lb-ft of torque. The Rogue, on the other hand, maxes out at 181 horsepower and 175 lb-ft of torque.
Cabin Space & Passenger Comfort: The VW Tiguan is a 3-row fullsize SUV while the Rogue veers more on the midsize side. But despite the row difference, the VW Tiguan does showcase a spatial advantage with 123.9 cubic feet of cabin space while the Rogue is limited to 105.8 cubic feet.
The VW Tiguan offers 39.6 inches of front headroom, which is roomier when compared to the 38.5 inches of headroom in the Rogue front row. The Nissan Rogue includes 38.5 inches of rear headroom while the Volkswagen Tiguan boasts 39.1 inches in the second row.

Each vehicle includes a sophisticated touchscreen mounted into the dashboard. The VW Tiguan offers two USB ports and an auxiliary input, but the Sportage offers one USB port.
Each vehicle offers smartphone integration features that bring your Bluetooth®-paired phone to the touchscreen. However, the Volkswagen Car-Net® App-Connect includes a hotspot, which keeps you connected no matter where you’re traveling.
Driver-Assistance Technology: The VW Tiguan and Kia Sportage each come with a set of driver-assisting technology features that are designed to help reduce the severity of, or help you avoid, an impeding collision or road departure.
Each vehicle offers a pre-collision system with pedestrian monitoring, blind-spot warning, and lane-keeping systems. However, the VW Tiguan offers an available Adaptive Cruise Control system, which isn’t available with the Sportage.
As you can see, there’s plenty of differences between the Volkswagen Tiguan vs. competition SUVs.
