Overview & Reviews

The Touareg's standard V6 engine goes from 220 hp to 240 hp. The optional navigation system will change from CD-based to DVD-based later in the model year. The formerly standard tire-pressure monitoring system is now optional, and satellite radio is available across the board. A self-dimming rearview mirror debuts this year, along with newly styled 18-inch alloy wheels.

• Upscale interior, polished road manners, true off-road capability, solid construction, lengthy standard equipment list.

• Lousy fuel economy, not a lot of room in the backseat, no in-dash CD changer.

  My VW - 2005 Volkswagen Touareg

  My Touareg is two years old now and it still looks brand new. It has a very nice ride. I love the heated seats in the winter.

  Head rests - 2005 Volkswagen Touareg

  Lot of fun to drive off road. The head rest for the back seat are in the way so they are the first thing to take out of the car.

  Have owned many Audi Quattros but too many neighbors have them now. This is an Audi in SUV clothing! Love this vehicle-drives almost as sporty as the Porsche with many more items standard and a much nicer interior trim level for $10,000 LESS. Hope nobody on my street finds out!

  I bought one of the first ever. I love the interior, the solidity, and aside from some minor problems, the ride.

  Awesome SUV - 2005 Volkswagen Touareg
  By Sonja - October 16 - 3:46 pm

  We have been so happy with our Touareg!! It was a great purchase. VW was awesome to work with, and everwhere we go, everyone is so jealous of our VW. We would definitely recommend this vehicle to anyone who is looking to tow, off road, or just drive around in class and style.

  Awesome SUV - 2005 Volkswagen Touareg
  By mike - September 8 - 2:40 pm

  After owning 3 Jeep Grand Cherokees, a BMW X-5 and a Mercedes M-350 and having driven just about every other SUV on the planet, yes, including Lexus, Range Rover, Toyotas and Infinities, I can honestly say, they just dont compare to my 05 V-8 Touareg with respect to style, comfort and performance. Another nice thing is they are relatively new which means fewer on the road and still have, for the time being a disticnt uniqeness. Do yourself a favor and take one for a drive before wasting money on a more expensive less enjoyable SUV.

  Love this SUV - 2005 Volkswagen Touareg
  By SJ - August 23 - 10:23 am

  My Touareg makes turns on a dime, hugs corners and feels stocky and solid on the road. I can go up and down the steep icey hill to my house with ease which was always a huge concern and the reason I was looking for an SUV. My Touareg has surpassed my expectations. I love driving it.
