Although the Volkswagen joined the SUV market relatively late, the company has developed quite a distinguished participant. The first generation Touareg was launched on the market in 2002 as the third sport utility vehicle from that automaker and remained in production till 2007. Purchasing the used Volkswagen Touareg seems to be currently one of the best options if one wants to own a typical SUV for a pretty reasonable price. 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 hood one will find two gasoline units: a 3.2 litre V-6 engine producing 220 BHP and a 4.2-litre V-8 power plant providing a horsepower of 310. The petrol units can be described as rather thirsty and will be a bad choice if the driver values fuel efficiency. The best option for those that love economic fuel consumption would then be a 5.0 litre V-10 turbo-diesel power plant which generates a stunning horsepower of 310 and has 553 pounds-feet of torque, surprisingly retaining moderate fuel consumption. The cabin of the 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, a tire-pressure monitor and an Electronic Stability Program as a standard. Summarizing the used Volkswagen Touareg is a perfect choice if one is in need of a multipurpose family car that can handle all possible road conditions.
