The facelifted Volkswagen Touareg will be on sale in South Africa from the beginning of August 2024. Here’s a quick look at the pricing and what’s on offer.
The facelifted Volkswagen Touareg is Wolfsburg’s answer to the luxury SUV segment and if your money isn’t going to either the BMW X5, Mercedes-Benz GLE or Audi Q7, then Volkswagen hopes you’ll take a second look at its offering.
Visually, the update comprises changes both inside and out with the exterior design gaining an overhaul. There are new-look IQ.Light HD matrix headlights which are more effective, new daytime running lights and the rear gains that in-fashion LED lightbar. There are new-look bumpers at the front and rear and the Volkswagen logo is illuminated at night.
Step inside and both the features list and trim have been enhanced. There’s an upgraded voice control system, more powerful USB-C connection ports, while the cabin benefits from more plush materials.
Customers will be able to choose from two trim levels, however the supplied information didn’t clarify between the two to justify the R300 000 difference. We’ll update this article as soon as the configurator goes live.
As before, the Touareg is powered by a 3.0-litre turbocharged diesel engine which makes 190 kW and 600 Nm. The car features permanent all-wheel drive as well as an 8-speed automatic transmission.
