Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Volkswagen Tiguan than in the Toyota 4Runner, due to its greater head- and legroom.
The Toyota 4Runner offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Volkswagen Tiguan, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Toyota 4Runner will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Volkswagen Tiguan, which has a much lower MSRP.

Since the Toyota 4Runner is much wider than the Volkswagen Tiguan, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging.
For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Toyota 4Runner, which is slightly longer than the Volkswagen Tiguan.
