Frequently asked questions about Volkswagen Touareg
Why is Volkswagen discontinuing the Touareg?
Volkswagen has not discontinued production of the Touareg in the UK, although it has been discontinued in the United States since 2017. It was discontinued in the US market due to poor sales and replaced with the Volkswagen Atlas. Sales of the Touareg remain relatively low in Europe, but it is nevertheless popular as a luxury SUV and no statements have been made yet regarding the end of production.
Is the Volkswagen Touareg a good car?
Yes, the Volkswagen Touareg is a superb luxury crossover SUV that offers amongst the very best that Volkswagen has to offer - provided that you’re willing to spend considerably more than you would on any other VW model. The Touareg is perfectly capable of off-road driving and handles quite well in city and rural driving conditions, has some of the latest and most advanced safety features and technological integrations, and is perfectly suited for comfortable family transport.
Which is bigger, Touareg or Tiguan?
The Volkswagen Touareg is considerably larger than the Tiguan. More precisely, the third-generation Volkswagen Touareg measures approximately (length x width x height) 4.9 x 2.0 x 1.7 metres, whereas the third-generation Volkswagen Tiguan measures approximately 4.6 x 1.8 x 1.6 metres. While there is nothing necessarily wrong with the Tiguan, the Touareg is much better in terms of specifications and technology aboard. The Tiguan, on the other hand, can be a better choice for families as some models have more seats and the price tag is much lower.
What car replaced the VW Touareg?
The Touareg has not yet been replaced as of its third generation in Europe, but in all likelihood, it will eventually be replaced by the new Volkswagen ID family of all-electric vehicles. In the United States, the Touareg has already been replaced in 2017 with the Volkswagen Atlas.
Is the Volkswagen Touareg fuel efficient?
Depending on powertrain and driving habits, the Touareg is either excellent or poor in terms of fuel economy. Non-hybrid plug-in models tend to suffer from quite poor fuel economy. For example, 2020 Touareg estimates are around 28.6 mpg (likely non-PHEV models). Compare this with the 34.4 mpg claim by Volkswagen for its third-generation diesel powertrain models. PHEV models can achieve significantly higher mpg-e, making the Touareg surprisingly very fuel efficient.
