Reston, VA — Volkswagen of America today announced that the 2026 Tiguan has been named Best Compact SUV by Good Housekeeping in its 2026 Best Family Car Awards.

The third-generation Tiguan balances spaciousness, comfort, and safety-enhancing technology in a compact SUV footprint. Its redesigned interior offers more passenger room than the previous model and flexible cargo space—great for hauling strollers, sports gear, groceries, and luggage. Families also benefit from multiple USB-C fast chargers, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as available three-zone climate control, massaging front seats and heated outboard rear seats. Touches like these make daily routines, school runs and road trips more convenient and comfortable for parents and children alike. KESSY® keyless access with proximity lock/unlock and an available power liftgate with optional handsfree Easy Open/Ease Close make loading kids and cargo easier.
