Used Volkswagen Touareg – An Excellent SUV

Although Volkswagen joined the SUV market relatively late, the company has developed quite a distinguished participant. The first generation Touareg was launched to the market in 2002 as the third sport utility vehicle from that automaker and it remained manufactured until the year 2007. Personally I think that purchasing a used Volkswagen Touareg is currently one of the best options when it comes to the second hand SUV market. Not many people are aware of the fact that this vehicle is built by the Porsche along such SUV’s as the excellent Cayenne. Under the bonnet you will find two petrol units: a 220-hp, 3.2 litre V6 and a 310-hp, 4.2 litre V8, which are rather thirsty and will be a bad choice if you value fuel efficiency. The best option is the powerful 5.0 litre V10 turbo diesel engine, which generates a stunning 310 hp and 553 pounds-feet of torque, surprisingly retaining moderate fuel consumption. The cabin of a used Volkswagen Touareg is a combination of beautiful styling and luxury. The wood-trimmed five passenger interior offers four zone climate control and plenty of safety features such as antilock brakes, traction control, tyre-pressure monitor and Electronic Stability Program (as standard). Overall, purchasing a used Volkswagen Touareg is a perfect choice if you need a multipurpose family car that can handle all possible road conditions and also offers very good comfort merged with the highest quality of build.
