The Tige 22V 2006 vs Tige RZR 2013 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story: intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Tige 22V 2006 at 21,0 ft versus Tige RZR 2013 at 20,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Tige 22V 2006 tips the scales at 3 945 lbs - 845 lbs more than the Tige RZR 2013 at 3 100 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
The Tige 22V 2006 carries a rated maximum of 380 hp. Engine data for the Tige RZR 2013 wasn't available in our records - check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Both carry nearly identical fuel loads - 38 gal and 38 gal - so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Tige RZR 2013 is rated for 12 passengers, while the Tige 22V 2006 caps at 11. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Tige RZR 2013 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Tige RZR 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 12 passengers and at 20,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Tige 22V 2006 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 11 that costs less to run day-to-day.
