Volkswagen Touareg (7L) facelift
Mid-Size CrossoverProduct Gallery
Product Overview
Volkswagen Touareg (Typ 7L) facelift is a mid-size luxury crossover in production from 2006 to 2010. It was available with a range of inline-5, V6, V8, V10, and W12 engines that displaced 2.5 to 6.0 liters.
Compared to the pre-facelift model, the most notable changes occur in the levels of engine output. Volkswagen was kind enough to bump up the power of some of the most iconic engines ever put in a German vehicle. At the same time, the V8 became direct-injected (FSI), which compromised its reliability.
Those who drive offroad, for work or leisure, will appreciate the extraordinary approach, departure, breakover, and climb angles that the chassis offers.
