Say hello to the tech-filled Volkswagen Touareg

With the Volkswagen Touareg R-Line Tech it really is tech by name, tech by nature. Innovative media, convenience and safety systems set the Touareg apart from its rivals and create the perfect all-round driving experience.

For starters there’s the class-leading Innovision Cockpit and Active Info Display, which combines a 12-inch customisable digital instrument display with a stunning 15-inch glass touchscreen, complete with all of your infotainment needs.

It’s on this main screen where you’ll be able to access the 3D satellite navigation, four-zone climate control and both DAB and Internet radio services. Plus, with voice and gesture control included, the whole system is completely intuitive to use. And if that wasn’t enough, the Innovision Cockpit is now available as standard on the lower-priced SEL Tech trim too.

Volkswagen’s App Connect brings with it Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and there’s wireless mobile charging so you’ll always arrive at your destination with the smartphone equivalent of a full tank. Volkswagen We Connect then allows owners to check the mileage, fuel levels, status location and lock and unlock their car using only that aforementioned smartphone. The Touareg defines connected motoring.

It’s not just the infotainment systems that outline the cleverness of the Touareg, though. Technology such as park assist, adaptive cruise control with camera-controlled lane assist, city emergency braking, hill descent assist and hill start assist all contribute to make Volkswagen’s flagship SUV a pleasure to drive and a safe place to transport the whole family.

The Touareg will blend seamlessly into family life too. With an automatic electric tailgate, keyless entry/start and electronically heated, adjustable and foldable door mirrors, it’s always ready for the next adventure.
