I find the difference between the two very minimal.
And for almost €20k more 💶 I would absolutely not choose the Tiguan.

Maserati MC20 Coupe

The Maserati MC20 is a siren-song of Italian drama — sleek, sculpted and built to provoke a grin every time you slide behind the wheel. It pairs exotic looks and an intoxicating soundtrack with razor-sharp handling, though its focused nature makes it more of a weekend indulgence than a grocery-run companion.
