The Chery Tiggo 9 is longer and more powerful than the Volkswagen Tiguan, and it gives you a third row of seats that the Tiguan goes without. If you regularly haul a trailer, however, the Volkswagen can tow more. Both SUVs give you pretty good visibility from behind the wheel, but neither steering setup offers much feedback on twisty roads, which knocks your confidence if you try to push on. When you are navigating urban streets, the Tiggo 9 can feel a bit cumbersome, whereas the Tiguan is not so big that it feels intimidating to drive around town.
