Performance
All-wheel steering
Greater stability and manoeuvrability in one, thanks to all-wheel steering.
A smaller turning circle is possible when the rear wheels steer as well as the front wheels. On request, you can now also use this technique with the Touareg, which makes the vehicle hugely manoeuvrable and improves its steering stability. Furthermore when travelling faster than 50kmh the rear wheels also steer to help with cornering.*
*Standard on V6S R-Line.
Air suspension
Always on a high.
And to ensure that there’s no damper on your driving enjoyment, you can also equip the Touareg with comfortable air suspension if required. It adapts the height of the body to all terrains. *
*Standard on V6S R-Line.
Night Vision
Letting you see what is hiding in the darkness.
You’ve probably seen night vision systems in spy films. Now you’ve got one in your car. The beams of the optional night vision system in the Touareg generate a thermal image of your surroundings, including people and animals, in your cockpit.*
*Optional on V6 and V6S R-Line.
Proactive occupant protection system
That way you are protected from all sides.
Proactive occupant protection system can secure you from all sides to protect you and your passengers. If the system identifies a risk of collision, it automatically triggers protection measures, including belt tightening, moving seats into an upright position and closing all windows and the tilting panoramic sunroof. All within the system limits.
3.0L turbo TDI engine
The power to take you places
The Touareg has been built to be driven and enjoyed. It features a 3.0L turbocharged TDI engine capable of providing an impressive 170-210kW of power and 500-600Nm of torque.
