2007 Touareg

[Canadian Turbo]

Volkswagen has released some initial photography of the 2007 Volkswagen Touareg SUV ahead of its world public debut at the Paris Motor Show next week. Sporting a new 'face,' revised rear styling, updated interior and seats as well as the Dynaudio sound system as an option, the new Touareg will go on sale early next year. At the front, the new Touareg features a new grille, bonnet, front wings and bumper, plus new headlights and mirrors. The rear lights, spoiler, bumper and exhaust pipes have also been modified to freshen the 4×4’s appearance. The new Touareg will feature new and revised technology, including ABSPlus and additional ESP (Electronic Stabilization Program) features. The system shortens the braking distance by up to 20% on loose driving surfaces. New features have been added to the ESP, these include Active Rollover Protection (ARP), rain brake support, fading brake support and understeer control logic, which improves the turning behaviour in the event of understeer. Engine choices in Europe will include a 3.6-litre V6 280 hp gasoline powerplant; 2.5-litre TDI 174 hp diesel; 3.0-litre V6 TDI 225 hp diesel; and the range-topping 5.0-litre V10 TDI with 313 hp. It's unclear how U.S. engine offerings will differ.

It's good to see there will still be Diesel options out there, but what about Canada?

Re: 2007 Touareg

The problem was the diesel option was a $20000 addition..... I doubt many were sold.

What exactly is the purpose of this thing??
