Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2)

The Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) reaches 60 mph in 8.41 s (100 km/h in 8.92 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.58 s, tripping the lights at 84.0 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.58 s and the eighth mile in 10.74 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2)

The 2016 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) is a front-drive turbodiesel SUV of 1,493 kg with 148 bhp, which works out at 99 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.58 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,318th quickest to 60 mph, and the 9th quickest of the 16 Volkswagens here. Its 84.0 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) 0-60 time?
The Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) reaches 60 mph in 8.41 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,318th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) quarter mile time?
16.58 s at 84.0 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.74 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.58 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) have?
148 bhp and 1,493 kg, which is 99 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 204 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2)?
Closest here on pace: Cupra Formentor 2.0 TDI EVO 150 (8.40 s), Jeep Cherokee KL 2.2 195 (8.47 s), Mitsubishi ASX / RVR / Outlander Sport 1.8 DiD 2WD 150 (8.34 s). Each one can be raced against the Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
