Meet the new VW Touareg!
The Touareg is the largest Volkswagen SUV you can buy, and it’s just had a mid-life facelift! But how much has actually changed? Well, Mat’s got his hands on one to find out…
Starting with the design, it still looks pretty similar to the last edition, although there are a few notable differences. Starting at the rear, the Touareg now comes with a full-length light bar and a redesigned bumper. Along the side, there are some new alloy wheel designs, and all new editions of the Touareg come with black roof bars. You’ll find a redesigned grille, an updated bumper, and some new headlight designs. What’s more, these now come as Matrix LEDs!
Step inside and the design is pretty similar to the last edition, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing! There are soft-touch materials throughout the large cabin, and all cars now come with a large infotainment screen that also has some updated graphics. The car we have here also has a nice, large digital dial display which is very easy to read.
There are a number of engines available with the Touareg. You can get a 3-litre V6 turbo petrol that has 340hp, and then there are two hybrid models. They use the same 3-litre V6, and while one produces 380hp, the other produces 460hp - the latter car is the high-performance R model, no less! There is also a choice of two diesel engines available, both of which are 3-litre V6 turbo diesel.
The all-new Touareg starts from around £68,000, but is it worth it?! Or should you choose a competitor like the BMW X5 instead? You’ll need to stick with Mat to see for yourself!
