Introducing the TOUAREG

The new Touareg breathes fresh air into the premium SUV class with impressive new proportions, pioneering new technology and the widest range of assistance, handling and comfort systems ever integrated within a Volkswagen. A sporty elegant diffuser, dynamic LED rear tail lights and chrome trapezoid tailpipes create an athletic new look, underlined by striking 19 or 20 inch alloys depending on your chosen model. To the front, a wide assertive chrome grille extends into the headlights to create an even more dynamic appearance. Add to that an impressive specification, quality craftsmanship and the technologically advanced Innovision Cockpit that offers new levels of functionality and customisation – not to mention the ground-breaking optional ‘Off-road’ pack and you can see why the new Touareg is raising the bar once again.A pioneering first for Volkswagen, the new Touareg R-Line Tech is the only SUV in its class to be equipped with the Discover Premium, 15 inch touch-screen infotainment system. Merging seamlessly into the 12 inch Digital Cockpit, it removes almost all protruding buttons, knobs and dials, enabling you to control the functions and systems of your car simply and easily by touch, gesture or voice. You can customise the home screen with your favourite apps and photos just like a smartphone and manage all operating systems from the central interface, making travel safer, more convenient and more intuitive than ever before. Equipped with the connectivity of a new era, the new Touareg provides the blueprint for tomorrow’s digital interior – today. The Innovision Cockpit is a glass digital instrument and infotainment display comprising the Digital Cockpit and Discover Premium touch-screen infotainment system that creates a seamless, uncluttered and visually stunning dashboard. Standard on R-Line Tech and optional on SEL and R-Line models.

The exterior may be sporty and dynamic, but inside all is calm and relaxed, thanks to a combination of spacious design, exacting craftsmanship and technologically advanced comfort. Take for example the 14-way ergoComfort seats, which are standard on the R-Line Tech, with electric adjustment for the seat height, seat length, seat cushion angle, backrest angle and 4-way electrically adjustable lumbar support – seen here in luxurious optional ‘Savona’ leather upholstery. Alternatively, the option of Active front climate seats offer a choice of three separate ventilation settings and eight individual pneumatic massage settings for the driver and front seat passenger. The ‘Matt Black’ centre console features ‘Silver’ decorative inlay, while the leather trimmed multifunction steering wheel and gear knob are finished with ‘Gloss Black’ inlay and aluminium trim, giving the cabin a sporty elegance. There’s no mistaking the new Touareg SEL’s clean contours, dynamic proportions and assertive confidence. Incisive bodylines and a long bonnet create a strong silhouette, dominated by the front grille that blends harmoniously into the full LED headlights including LED static cornering lights, with chrome strips extending out from the central Volkswagen roundel over the headlights. 19 inch ‘Osorno’ alloy wheels, stainless steel load sill and door sill protectors and black anodised roof rails complete the exterior look. The rear design is powerful, with sculpted shoulders with broad rear LED tail light clusters and black grained rear diffuser with chrome trapezoid exhaust tailpipes, left and right underlining its progressive look. Perfect aesthetics combine with an athletic body to create an SUV with real personality.

There’s no need to adapt to the new Touareg. This car will adapt to you, thanks to Volkswagen’s widest ever range of customised systems and programmes, connected and controlled via the digital interface and multifunction steering wheel. An impressive range of standard specification ensures you enjoy aesthetics, comfort and style tailored to your personal taste. For example, white ambient lighting in the front footwell, door sill protectors, light strips below the trim in the doors and dashboard, heated ‘Vienna Black’ leather upholstery, Discover Navigation Pro infotainment system, climate control – 2Zone electronic air conditioning, keyless start and ‘Matt Black’ centre console with ‘Silver’ decorative inlays all help ensure your car is exactly how you want it.

The new Touareg is designed to provide exceptional ride comfort and, when fitted with the optional ‘Off-road’ pack, is at home on nearly every type of terrain. A choice of driving modes includes Sand and Gravel, giving you exceptional mobility even on unstable surfaces, while features such as the front underbody protection and larger fuel tank give you the capability to tackle even the toughest conditions wherever your travels may take you.
