Recently, overseas media exposed a set of road test spy photos of the new Volkswagen Touareg. As a slightly facelifted model, the new car has undergone subtle changes in styling, mainly upgrading the front grille, front surround and taillights. In terms of power, the new car will also be equipped with the same 3.0T V6 turbocharged engine as the Porsche Cayenne . Compared with the current model, the new car has become more stable and low-key in appearance. So what’s so interesting about this car? Let’s follow the footsteps of car enthusiasts and take a look!
Let’s first look at the appearance of the new car. The overall design of the new car still follows the design language of the current model. As a minor facelift model, it seems that there are no changes in the new car, but if you look closely, you can still find that the new car has slimmer decorative strips inside the front grille. In addition, the front apron of the new car has also changed. The air guide grooves on both sides do not look as aggressive as the current model, and the overall vision is more stable.
From the side of the body, the new car is basically the same as the current model, and there are no changes. It adopts a standard SUV body shape with straight body lines. In terms of body size, the official has not yet clearly stated the body size data of the new car. As a reference, the length, width and height of the current Volkswagen Touareg are 4878/1984/1717 (1686) mm respectively, and the wheelbase reaches 2899mm.
From the rear of the car, the roof spoiler is more conspicuous, which effectively increases the sportiness of the rear of the car. The split headlights in the lower part have also been blackened, and paired with two exhaust layouts on both sides, making the rear of the car more dynamic.
As for the interior, no spy photos of the interior of the new car have been exposed this time. It is expected that the interior layout of the new car will be similar to that of the current model. For reference, the current Volkswagen Touareg is equipped with a 12-inch LCD instrument panel and a 15-inch central control screen in the car.
In terms of power, the new car is built on the MLB Evo platform and will continue to be equipped with the power system of the current model, which are 2.0T and 3.0T turbocharged engines. Among them, the 2.0T model has a maximum power of 180 kilowatts and a peak torque of 370 N·m. The maximum power of the 3.0T model is 250 kilowatts and the peak torque reaches 450 N·m. In terms of transmission system, both models are matched with 8AT transmissions. In addition, the new Volkswagen Touareg is also expected to introduce a 48V mild hybrid system.
Summary of car enthusiasts:
Touareg is a flagship SUV of Volkswagen. Although it is not a luxury brand, it still has the strength of a luxury brand, and the quality of the entire vehicle is not inferior to that of luxury models. The interior space and chassis texture of the new car are all worth looking at, but the price is a bit expensive. But seeing that the new car will be equipped with the same power as the Cayenne, most people must be eager to meet it.
Judging from the exposed spy photos, the new car has not changed much overall. More adjustments have been made to the details of the body, and the overall shape is more stable. For reference, the official guide price of domestic cash Touareg is 591,800-845,800 yuan. The question is, can you accept this front face shape?
