Our test vehicle was powered by a sophisticated 4.2 liter – 350 horsepower V-8 coupled to a 6-speed automatic transmission and featured Servotronic power steering, Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP), double-wishbone front and rear links, independent steel spring suspension and center differential lock.
The Electronic Brake force Distribution (EFB) and anti-lock braking system bring the entire package to a safe stop.
The Touareg-2’s interior reflects luxury with high quality leather and high tech polished aluminum throughout the cabin.
This roomy 5-passenger sports utility has an aerodynamically streamlined front-end that gives this Volkswagen SUV a ready-for-any-road look.
