How much is road tax on a Volkswagen Tiguan?
Most used Volkswagen Tiguan in stock pay the flat standard rate of £200 a year — 75% were first registered on or after 1 April 2017, when road tax became a single annual rate regardless of CO₂. Figures are for the 2026/27 UK tax year.
Currently, there are 7 used Volkswagen Tiguan models available on Motoring Today, ranging from 2016 to 2023. When buying a used car, understanding Vehicle Excise Duty (VED), commonly known as road tax, is crucial. For any used Volkswagen Tiguan, the amount of road tax payable depends entirely on two factors: the car's first-registration date and its CO2 emissions or fuel type. Unlike other running costs such as insurance or fuel, road tax for a specific car does not change based on subsequent owners or where it is driven. Cars first registered before April 2017 are taxed based on their CO2 emissions band, with different bands incurring different annual charges. For Volkswagen Tiguan models registered from April 2017 onwards, a different system applies: there's typically a first-year rate determined by CO2 emissions, followed by a standard flat rate for subsequent years. Additionally, cars with a list price exceeding £40,000 when new are subject to an extra "premium car" surcharge for five years, from the second time the vehicle is taxed. It's also important to note that while fully electric vehicles have historically been exempt from VED, this exemption is scheduled to change. Since the exact road tax figure depends on the individual car's specifics, we cannot state a general amount here. Always check the specific details for the Volkswagen Tiguan you are interested in to confirm its current VED rate.
