Luxurious And Affordable: The Volkswagen Touareg

The VW Touareg is a smooth, comfortable, refined luxury SUV that comes loaded with clever technology and safety kit. Its a first class competitor in the luxury SUV market, thanks to a mix of solid build quality and premium materials.This latest third-generation Touareg arrived in 2018 and received a facelift in 2023.Touareg's are a great alternative to the Range Rover Sport and Land Rover Discovery as well as the BMW X5 and the Mercedes GLE.
The VW Touareg's power currently comes from VW's 3.0 TDI V6 diesel in two power outputs, 228bhp or 282bhp and a 335bhp V6 petrol, while the R range-topper uses a 456bhp plug-in hybrid powertrain. All are linked to an eight-speed automatic gearbox and feature 4MOTION all-wheel drive.
There are three trim levels to choose from, Elegance, Black Edition and R. All trims offer superb levels of equipment, with the entry-level Elegance better equipped than the old SE version. Entry level cars get 20-inch alloys, a 15-inch touchscreen infotainment system, front and rear parking sensors with a rear-view camera and adaptive cruise control. Black Edition variants get larger 21-inch wheels, air suspension, powered seats with memory function, blacked out exterior trim, tinted windows and Volkswagen’s ‘Park Assist Pro’.
The Volkswagen Touareg has evolved into an upmarket SUV that has the ability to outshine premium rivals in quality and comfort. The interior is built and designed beautifully and chock full of kit, and while there’s no seven-seat version, it’s more than practical enough for a family. The Touareg definitely goes the extra mile when justifying its premium price tag, which now starts from around the £68,000 mark.

Great video once again. The car is stunning. Not my cup of tea, I am more of a Cupra man, but still. Love the reviews. Always really thorough especially going through different trim levels

Hey! The bonnet catch is not in the passenger side for the MLB platform in LHD it’s changed for each market. My friend has a German A5 :)

[@dampmaky]

is it really affordable luxury? it starts at £69k and the audi q7 starts at 67.... Furthermore the q7 experiences less depreciation overtime and is well, an audi

Whichever you prefer. Both are affordable in their own right with the offerings and 2k extra when at that level of money isn’t going to be a deal breaker for those in the market
