VW Touareg 3.0 TDI (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Greg Fountain, 06 September 2010 10:30

Early adopters of the 2010 VW Touareg will see their cars being delivered from October onwards. And for some reason they will not be hated quite so fiercely as those who’ve ordered a Porsche Cayenne, even though the cars are broadly the same underneath and are, in the view of those with beards, equally reprehensible.Leaving the matter of planet salvation ...

VW Touareg 3.0 Hybrid (2010) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 02 August 2010 13:52

When the original Mk1 VW Touareg was released in 2002, CAR Magazine drove it across North Africa and even let the real Tuareg tribespeople have a go in it across the Sahara. Now our own Georg Kacher has had a go in the latest hybrid version. 4x4=bad, but hybrid 4x4=good? This is the first VW to use the same hybrid technology as the Porsche Cayenne. The big VW ...

VW Touareg R50 (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

VW Tiguan 2.0 TDi (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 24 September 2007 01:38

Why is VW so late to the 4x4 party? Blame management, complicated model cycles and just about every other excuse under the sun. And speaking of the sun, those countries from the land of the rising sun have been doing the medium-sized 4x4 thing since the mid-1990s. Toyota launched the Rav4 over a decade ago, let's not forget. Only this ...

VW Touareg V10 TDi (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Steve Prentice, 03 July 2007 12:40

The new VW Touareg? What's different? Yes, true, the new-look front end is more of a tweak than a full redesign, but VW has changed 2300 individual parts in the new Touareg, including brakes, suspension, anti-rollover safety, and a front and side sensor system which tells you how much room you've got (or haven't) in tricky off-road situations. Or congested ...
