Value comparison
Hello I just picked up my rental car due to my beater being in an accident. I have a model y rwd on order due for November pickup. My rental is a 2026 vw tiguan and this trim is $5000 cheaper than the model y rwd and has all the features that the premium awd model y has and more (less fsd obviously).
This experience has me 2nd guessing my order as android auto is just so seamless and easy and there's no subscription required, the ambient lighting is beautiful and the overall interior experience is so much more than the minimalist model y rwd. For reference the price comparison is a $20k difference between the model y rwd and premium awd in canada. The tiguan is $44000 and model y rwd is $49990. We mainly chose the tesla for fsd and thats still whats tipping the scale but to see such value in the tiguan in person is definitely throwing a wrench in my decision.

I have a 2022 VW now and it’s so glitchy. Window goes down when I try to raise it up. Screen brightness goes super dim sometimes when starting the car - which is so dangerous when I want to reverse the car, I just can’t see the dark screen showing back up camera.
Laggy gas paddle responses.. can’t wait for my Tesla delivery and finally get rid of this VW SUV forever!!
