Volkswagen Touareg 2019 can it challenge its luxury rivals?

[@mariodagostino6401]

Driven now for 150000 km a 2014 touareg 3.6 vr6 and it has been a great ride so far, no matter what weather conditions there may be out there; 40C or negative 30 C it goes anywhere

[@c5back9]

Amazing vehicle! Offers an incredible blend of toughness, luxury, quality and pricing to make it the best all-around midsize SUV in the world. Few who’s ever driven one will disagree.

[@elastotec173]

Just purchased the Touareg R Line with the V8 diesel - unbelievable vehicle that combined with VW's 5 year unlimited km warranty is much better offering than the Audi, Marc or BMW vehicles with the same spec. levels.

[@johnarrow3354]

When looking for an SUV-type car for personal and family use, local running and holiday journeys, I was giving primacy to cabin comfort. I have back trouble and an ageing body! Having enjoyed an amazingly comfortable one hour test drive over various road types, I was wholly convinced that this was the right car, and I just had to do was choose the right model and tech. features. That is where it is easy to get carried Way with tick boxing the features, and I had to employ a certain discipline. Now I have an ESTIMATED/PREDICTED wait of 14 months. I suspect that will be optimistic.

So bummed the Touareg has been dropped for the US market! Recently purchased a US 2017 Touareg Sport with tech (for Mom) less than one year used and 12,000 miles on the clock for $23000 below MSRP. What a fantastic deal for a surprisingly fantastic machine! I love it, I want one for myself.

Great review of a great machine. I often feel that VW hold back the very top interior luxuries that they reserve for Audi.

[@rivervalegroup]

Thanks Nodge, It seems VW are pushing a few models into the luxury market, we will see how they fare.

[@NigelRudyard]

@@rivervalegroup - well, the perceived quality seems excellent. Nice interior and looks like a nice ride. I just think these modern vehicles have got too many electronics-dependent gizmos on them that wil impair long-term reliability.

[@rivervalegroup]

@@NigelRudyard We see a lot of comments like this. It must be said, the more there is, the more can go wrong. I suppose if you can afford a luxury car you can afford what could go wrong with it.

[@NigelRudyard]

@@rivervalegroup That's very true, and maybe it will all become more reliable. But I have several friends and relatives who have had to scrap relatively new luxury cars (BMW, VW) due to catastrophic electronics failures.

[@slowboat6021]

Very detailed and informative review thanks. Looks like Quite a lot of car. the optional extras list mind blowing (and wallet emptying) It's a pity the off road features have all but disappeared however, plenty of dirt tracks and bog holes and the T1 had the option of a full size spare wheel which is pretty well mandatory if touring here in Oz. not sure why reviewers harp on about 7 seats, I don't want smelly riff raff crowding into my SUV. if you do get a more affordable tiguan allspace?

[@rivervalegroup]

Hi Slowboat, Thank you. I think that the 7-seats thing isn't so much for the 'riff raff' but for larger families?

[@slowboat6021]

@@rivervalegroup exactly what I'm talking about OSV. A mate of mine had a 7 seat SUV; he never told his kids of the extra seats as they would have wanted it used to cart all their friends around. I guess VW are aiming the touareg as a flagship lux model ie not soccer mums taxi?

[@mrcjstudio]

Im a new subscriber abd I hae to say I learnt a lot. I didn't know that the MLM architecture shares so many features from the Q7, Cayenne, Bentayga and Urus. Also, being VW's most technological vehicle out right now certainly makes it more appealing. I have a family member who is looking to buy the Atlas but Imma try to convince her to get this instead. The only thing that might dissuade her is the fact that its only a five seater. Great review
