The Volkswagen Touareg is the first premium SUV with three powerful gasoline engines – 3.2L V6 (GH-7LBMVA) with 241ps/31.6kgm, 4.2L V8 (GH-7LAXQS) with 310ps/41.8kgm, and 6.0L W12 (GH-7LBJNA) with 450ps/61.2kgm. The Touareg utilizes a Tiptronic 6AT transmission with paddle-shift that can be operated without taking one’s hands away from the steering wheel. It runs on a full-time 4WD system with an electronic multi-plate differential lock that distributes torque 50:50 to the front and back on smooth roads, and that can change between 0:100 and 100:0 based on road conditions. Adjustable windows are installed on each of the1900mm wide monocoque body’s 5 doors, and its 2 rows seat a total of 5 passengers. All models use the same characteristic W12 exterior with front and back aero bumpers, side sill extensions, roof edge spoiler, chrome front air intake, and newly designed aluminum wheels. All models are equipped with steering wheel heating.
The interior of the V6 is fitted with Vavona wood panels, with the wood panels used in the V8 available as an option. The V8 has an electric glass sliding roof with tilt mechanism, as well as CDC air suspension that are available as add-ons in the V6. Both the V6 and V8 have fuel economies of 7.5 km/l, while the W12 runs 5.9 km/l.
