New Volkswagen Touareg SUV 2019 review - better than an Audi Q7 and Bentley Bentayga!

[@some______guy]

This guy is the only one I'll watch reviewing cars on youtube. He's just the right mix of fun and enlightened

[@MC-nb6jx]

Some Guy ....I must have watched a different video, he’s a fucking tool who loves himself🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️ Tries to be funny, but fails by a country mile ..

[@MC-nb6jx]

Crazy 254 .... To see what bollocks he talks in his reviews🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️ He comes across as biased depending on the brand, so much for independent reviewing.. Was that complicated for you??

[@MC-nb6jx]

Crazy 254 ... Ahhh you’re one of those who “think” people aren’t allowed an opinion if it’s not the same as yours 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ News for you, I don’t live in North Korea.. Ironic really that you criticise my “opinions” as it obviously differs to yours & say don’t watch.. Sorry Kim Jong that’s not how it works in the free world 😉😉

[@MC-nb6jx]

Crazy 254 .... You’re not what, Kim Jong?? Sorry there Vladimir, I mistook you for your mate.. You call my comments & opinions disrespectful by the way I put them about this guy, while being disrespectful to me. Hypocrisy?? 🤣🤣 “Works so hard for his job, puts his soul into it”.... how do you know this, are you his mum?? He makes moronic criticisms of certain things on some car brands which are just the same on other brands of cars which get a free pass on the same things.. A bit less bias would be more helpful🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️ I guess you can’t see past things like that through rose tinted glasses?? I bet you’d work well with others right up until you melted😉😉

[@MC-nb6jx]

Crazy 254 ... You say so mum.. As it’s a free country you’re entitled to your opinion as am I.. You defend him that’s fine.. I see a different reviewer than you & I’m allowed to say so in any way I want.. You don’t like that tough, it’s not North Korea🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

[@pazt9911]

I test drove one today and I would recommed anyone that wants pure luxury to go for this car, it completely separates you from all the noise and madness outside, and drives beautifully! We are getting one after testing a GLE, GLB and a Q7, Range Rover Sport, Porsche Macan, this ones the best out of the lot!

You guys are very good. I just watched the entire video even though I would never even dream of buying a car like this!

[@Koexistence13]

Tip: When backing with a trailer ..... Turn the steering wheel from the bottom half only. Turning the trailer to the left you will be turning the the bottom half of the steering wheel to the left and vice versa the right. This helps with the directional confusion for engineers. Shorter trailers will turn sharper faster so go slow and do not turn the bottom half of the steering wheel too much or far. Jack knifing? Just pull forward to straighten out.

[@Koexistence13]

Brian do you have a source for that? I'd like to read up on that. I'm searching for my next family vehicle and the Touareg would be a game changer

[@european1114]

Just buy Porsche Cayenne or Audi q7 they are both better cars than Touareg, and cheaper in USA 😀👍

[@klauskananen5136]

Emmanuel oh no it hasn’t, don’t get me started with the TSI timing chain issues + DSG problems which costs thousands to repair. Or perhaps the 1,8 an 2,0 TSI with oil consumption problems? What about diesels you say? I’m glad you asked, because the diesels on the other hand need the flywheel to be replaced after a 100 000 km or so, which is again thousands of €€€.

[@MiyuruWeerarathna]

Love your review Matt! And it does look special. More like an Audi A8 inside. Audi should update the Q series interior to look more like their cars.

[@Jack13853]

But as he said the Audi feels more expensive inside and the swivel wheel infotainment system on Audi’s is a lot easier to use while driving

[@mahadevovnl]

Why touch screens though? When I'm driving and want to switch radio stations or change songs or click on a destination the road makes me hand wobble all over the place. Buttons are an improvement, VW. Touch screen isn't cool just because it's touch. It's like having a touch screen television at home, makes absolutely no user-friendly sense.

[@visionist7]

mahadevovnl the screen here is huge though and the icons are much bigger

[@Matty12333]

mahadevovnl imagine if the screen freezes or fails, nothing will hardly work. Give me push buttons any-day

[@pickle24]

Not only volkswagen man. Every company uses infotainment screens nowdays, and we should adapt to them. It's normal and acceptable to control all that stuff from a screen now. Except for the climate control, that should deffinetely be made with physical buttons. Buttons are also more expensive to make comparing to infotainment screens, and also don't look as stylish, so companies are using screens now. But buttons help the driver be concentrated on the road.

[@TheEchelon]

Tom Jardine Buttons and knobs can break as well, happened plenty of times.

[@dsw1998]

[@dodo19923]

Paul Hendrix Unpopular fact: People who have problems driving and need electronics to help them out, shouldn't be on the roads. I've driven an old 1986 fiat panda for going on 5 years without a single hiccup, hell it even has a choke. Yet i see new cars smashed up all the time. Gizmos and gadgets make people lazy, making the risk of 'human error' higher than it should be. Argue all you want, but i'm not wrong.

[@kipzonderkop1994]

dodo19923 so, you’re saying cars shouldn’t be improved with electronics and new technology as that worsens driver skill? I’d like to see you shift faster than some of the dual clutch transmissions in modern cars. I’m sure the airbag is useless too Who needs traction control on 500+ HP cars amirite? Who needs cameras to help people reverse so insurance claims can be avoided amirite? Who needs parking assist when fender benders are great fun amirite? You can convince yourself that in your bubble you are right, especially giving a 1980s fiat as your example, but as cars have gotten much harder to handle, without technology you’re actively putting yourself at risk simply by being near them, as crash testing can clearly show you. Tbh, I’d rather have older people who aren’t very good at driving anymore be driven by their car than have me bump into their back because they decide they need to emergency brake because a bird flew by too fast...

[@harperwallace5633]

I do think that this car is really amazing, and the best VW. I don't think it should be compared to an Audi or Bently though. Different materials that make you feel more special. Even if their interior designs are more boring and don't have that massive screen.
