Good value in its segment at around 35,000
Petrol-only; not for buyers seeking hybrid or electric efficiency

Price near 35,000 may still exceed basic family options

Volkswagen Tiguan eHybrid

245 hp, 400 Nm and 0–100 km/h in 8 s provide confident overtakes without chasing performance.
Real-world efficiency drops if you can’t plug in regularly.
50 km EV range and a 13 kWh battery may not cover longer daily commutes on electricity alone.
