Consumer reviews at Edmunds have been a factor in my decision making to purchase cars. I felt obliged to return this favor but was patient to write my first review. Now with 10000 miles driven on my new Touareg purchased last October , I am so happy with this SUV. To start with , simplified three levels of trim made it simple to determine which one fits my need ( X5 packages were so confusing). Driven it all over the bay area hilly terrain in wet and dry weather. The performance and handling is simply awesome. The torque makes highway merging and overtaking so easy. Its engine is super silent with stellar performance.It gives me about 29 mpg in 70/30 hwy/city. BTW, my daughter loves it too..

I've reached a point where build quality, materials used, fit and finish are much more important. Many of todays new vehicles are about size and qty. of the touch screens. The downside of these "big screens" and "car plays" and other electronics "trinkets" is cost cutting is painfully evident in many other very important areas. One is the seats. Unlike things like adaptive cruise control, seats are used every single time you get in the vehicle. The 3rd generation VW Touareg has outstanding seats. The vehicle I purchased, 2014 VW Touareg R-Line, not only has 12 way adjustable seats for driver and passenger, it's the size and shape of the seats, it's the quality of the leather used. These seats are some of the best "thrones" in any SUV at any price, new or used. Speaking of used, they also hold up very well. Go have a look at a late model GM SUV? Yukon Denali? any Chevy? Even the almighty Escalade, have a look at the seat cushion and seat cover after 40-50K? They are a joke. Cheap is an understatement on many of these vehicles. VW no longer offers the Touareg here in NA, they now have the car based Atlas. Crack the door open on one of those and compare the materials, fit and finish to a used Touareg and you will see what I mean. Like any vehicle, the Touareg has its weaknesses as well. They are more expensive to maintain than say a Jeep Grand Cherokee. If not properly maintained, they can cost a bundle to repair. These are highly capable vehicles with full time AWD. (4Motion in VW speak), as a result they are fairly heavy (about 4700#) and fuel economy suffers. Of course these were offered with an excellent 3.0L V6 diesel engine, which can (depending on usage) greatly improve fuel economy, but do your homework on fuel cost, cost to maintain, etc...see if it "works" for you? The other engine offered is a 3.6L V6. It has 280hp and in most situations it's more than acceptable, but a bit thirsty. When new, these vehicles came with a 10yrs. or 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. Many websites and even VW dealers have the powertrain warranty at 5yrs./60K?? That information is WRONG for the Touareg. Again, do your homework, check with VW of America directly. In summary, if you want a highly capable, well built, luxury SUV and your more interested in impressing yourself than the clueless masses, give the Touareg a look.

Just bought 2014 Sport with Nav two days ago after closely following Touareg's improvement for few years. Comparing with no less than 4 other SUV, we decided to take Touareg based on overall performance and its value. Certainly you can find few alternates which exceed Touareg in various areas, however Touareg impressed us with exceptional performance and overall value.

I bought my 2014 Touareg R-Line in November and have driven it 3,600 miles of mixed highway and city driving. It is a great vehicle and has exceeded my expectations. The interior is very similar to my 2010 Porsche Cayenne that I drove for 3 years and very close to my wife's 2012 Audi Q7 S-Line. I am getting 26 miles to the gallon combined and the R-Line sport suspension is great fun to drive. Very comfortable seating for an old athlete that is 6'5" and it has very easy controls for navigation etc.

Unfortunately these cars are not available now thanks to “Dieselgate”. I highly recommend you buy one if you can get your hands on one. Zero troubles in over 3 years of ownership. 30 mpg Hwy!!! City driving about 24 mpg.
