Used 2016 Volkswagen Touareg Consumer Reviews
Give Me Diesel Stuttgart
Don't listen to the wacky news media. Volkswagen diesel luxury Touaregs are fabulous! Quiet, powerful and clean. Don't take my word for it, drive one today. You should all appreciate why your children ride a diesel school bus. S-A-F-E-T-Y

Touareg- Better than my Mercedes Benz ML350
Love the car. Would buy again despite some shortcomings like Nav and entertainment. The 3,0L diesel very quick and surprisingly quiet. 8 speed transmission perfect match for engine. However, the Nav system is borderline rubbish (VW Nav has always been crummy- have 2 other VW's 2014 Tiguan and 2015 Golf with same Nav issues). So I use Waze instead. The sound system is definitely rubbish... shouldn't be hard to get a good sound system on ANY car these days. Doesn't matter if playing CD or Bluetooth input from your iPhone- same result... blah! Handles great, and safety systems very good (radar based cruise control, lane change assist, etc.). I've recently sold my MBZ ML350. I like this better than that (except for the NAV and Entertainment). But all else better. Aug 2020- have owned since Dec 2017. Still love the Touareg. Have taken many lengthy trips (500-1100 miles). Only thing I hoped for was better fuel mileage. It does seem to go through more Def-Blue additive than I planned. We monitor engine wear by using outside oil monitoring company (to monitor crankcase oil dilution possibility to minimum during warranty period- highly recommended).

Awesome vehicle!
The TDI provides amazing power and 28mpg! With a 26.5 gallon tank, I routinely get over 750 miles per tank. The solid and sporty ride is fantastic. Definitely my favorite vehicle so far.
Like new after 3 yrs.
Look for one in really good shape and lower mileage. They're out there. I did something I have never done before and that was getting the ext. warranty for 3yrs. Mine was just out of warranty but the interior (and out) looked like new with virtually no damage or wear. Got it for less than half the new sale price and feel like I'm getting a lot of car, and features, for the money. This car looks fantastic and runs and handles amazingly well. Not the latest tech on the 2016 but an unbeatable value compared to similar size vehicles. Really tight and nicely appointed interior with quality materials and a very clean and classy design inside and out. Really happy with it!

Very comfortable touring car.
Roomy with conservative styling. Solid ride and feel. Not as smooth or quiet as my Lexus RX 330 but better looking than the new Lexus. Electric throttle take getting used to for a smooth start. Not impressed with MPG, to bad the TDI isn't available currently. 2018- Still enjoying the car. Adaptive cruise control is great for highway driving. It will bring the car to a full stop in traffic. The car is good in the snow. 2019- Still loving the car. One of the nicest road cars we’ve owned. Very comfortable on all day car trips. Just the right size.
