Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Limited-edition Black Line variant returns

Pros
Impeccably crafted, attractively designed cabin
Generous passenger room

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
Classy cabin
Long list of standard and optional features
Well-balanced ride and handling

Cons
Unimpressive cargo space
Cramped optional third-row seats
Some distracting infotainment controls

By:

The name sounds odd, but the Touareg offers a comfortable ride and spirited performance—something we all can understand. Its 3.6-liter V-6 makes 280 hp and is mated to an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. The Touareg is large, comfortable, and solid—plus it’s equally at home both on and off the pavement. A standard touchscreen infotainment display is functional but dated; the optional adaptive cruise control and automated emergency braking, however, are well engineered and effective.
