We have all seen the advertisements on the television for Volkswagens brand new TDI Touareg model and we are now excited because the car has officially arrived on our streets and it could very well prove to be one of the finest additions to the range yet.
The Touareg is Volkswagens biggest SUV model that they offer and now the brand have officially included the additions of some brand new pieces of equipment and engine that could very well prove to be features that can help the Touareg maintain its place in the SUV sector. The very first Touareg model was introduced into the world back in 2002 and there have been three generations of this car go on sale since this time. So what brand new features are included with this particular model which help it to make an impact and continue to be a big seller for the manufacturer?
The new changes and features in the Volkswagen Touareg TDI
We do see some new changes included with the car both with the engine and some additional pieces of equipment. So with a look underneath the bonnet of the car to begin with, we see that the company have included the fitting of a new 3.0 litre,six cylinder TDI engine. Combine this with the eight speed automatic transmission system that comes along with the car and we see an overall power output of 258 brake horse power come into play which helps boost speeds from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 7.6 seconds which then progresses on to an overall top speed limitation all round of 137 miles per hour.
This Touareg model is also a four wheel drive variant. The engine is the big change to come along with the TDI variant but there are the odd exterior changes too which come in the manner of Xenon headlights,brand new front and back bumpers and a revamped front grille too. Vehicles such as the Grand Cherokee from the Jeep brand and the Cayenne from Porsche have both proven to be ideal sources of competition for the manufacturer across the three generations of Touareg model. This brand new addition to the line up including the new engine will certainly help to maintain a good level of success for the VW brand and their Touareg and we certainly think that the car will remain a key player in the SUV sector for even longer thanks to this new variant.
