Volkswagen Touareg Owner's Manual

About The Touareg

Introduced in 2002, the Volkswagen Touareg is the company’s mid-size luxury crossover SUV outside of the USA.

It competes with many other luxury crossover SUVs on the market like the Genesis GV70 and the Range Rover Evoque.

These owner’s manuals show you how to use your Touareg and maintain it so that it lasts long enough for your family’s next generation.

It was replaced by the Atlas in the 2018 model year in North America and China which is better suited for those regions.

Initially, the development was split between this model as well as the Porsche Cayenne and Audi Q7 which all share many of the same mechanical components.

A wide range of engines across the 3 generations of the Touareg has helped it sell in many different regions to various demographics.

You can find entry-level 3-liter options all the way up to a 6-liter W12 for a hardcore experience (although that model was only made between 2005-2010).

In recent years the platform of the car is used to create the Bentley Bentayga and Lamborghini Urus but with much larger price tags.

Safety ratings for the car have been impeccable with 5 out of 5 stars awarded to the Volkswagen Touareg by Euro NCAP.

Part of this success can be put down to its shared MQB platform that Volkswagen has invested in heavily over the years.

Other popular models that use this marvel of engineering include the Audi A4 and Audi Q5.
