Why do you say the Subaru is safer?
I haven't been too impressed with Subaru's interiors. I find the plastics feel cheap and lack the solid feel of the VW. (This was based on a Tribeca).
Only issue I have with the Tiguan is the small trunk. Yeah you can fold down the rear seats for more room. But it's still too small next to the Touareg and even Passat.

They will function on super. With less power and economy

They are not suppose to run on anything below 95RON....the compression is 10.5/11.1 and turbocharged..and if you do run it on super...kiss your valvetrain goodbye; you are prematurely wearing it out in addition to putting wear on the piston rings...98ron is recommended....but 95ron is required for those engines as thats what we get...
I work closely with these engines so I know what I speak of

Shifts are just a fraction slower than dsg but barely detectable, I think quoted figures are around 490 milliseconds to shift. All simulated gears, so is S# you get 8 gears and S and I modes you get 6
