Volkswagen Touareg 2021

FROM
$50,160

The 2021 Volkswagen Touareg range of configurations is currently priced from $45,990.

Our most recent review of the 2021 Volkswagen Touareg resulted in a score of 8.5 out of 10 for that particular example.

Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: There's extraordinarily little to complain about in the Touareg Wolfsburg, apart from the price. Thing is, this car is packed with gear from the vastly more expensive Bentley Bentayga and Lamborghini Urus, and does it all, apart from a mental 0-100km/h and top speed, with far less fuss and, subjectively speaking, rather more style.

Volkswagen Touareg 2021 FAQs

How can I identify an R-Line package for the 2011 Volkswagen Touareg?

The 2011 R-Line package for the Touareg included plenty of extra kit, so identifying one shouldn’t be a problem. Those extras started with a body kit with a deeper front spoiler, side skirts and a rear roof spoiler. The R-Line package also extended to 20-inch alloy wheels.

Inside, look for stainless-steel kick panels inside each door, a different steering wheel, lots of leather, aluminium gear-selector and pedals and a 12-way electrically adjustable driver’s seat.

Where can I find the GCM weight rating for the 2015 Volkswagen Touareg?

This is actually more difficult than it ought to be as VW Australia doesn’t seem to publish a Gross Combination Mass (GCM) figure for the Touareg. Neither is the GCM something you can confidently calculate by adding the Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) to the maximum towing mass (in the Touareg’s case, 3500kg). That’s because in many cases, a vehicle is not able to tow its maximum towed load while fully loaded itself. These limits are all calculated by the vehicle’s manufacturer and are seriously non-negotiable. It’s a bit of a trap for some owners who hitch up a big caravan or boat, only to discover that they then have very little payload remaining in the vehicle.

In any case, here are the relevant GCM figures for the 2015 Touareg: 150TDI – 6390kg; 180TDI – 6415kg; V8 – 6510kg.

The Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) of your vehicle is 2890kg. That is, the total mass of the vehicle and its payload (including passengers) must not exceed this figure. The Gross Combination Mass (GCM) is the absolute weight limit for the vehicle, it’s payload and whatever it’s towing.
