Overview & Reviews
The five-passenger Touareg is an all-new midsize SUV from Volkswagen. Designed to provide both excellent handling on pavement and a high level of off-road ability, the Touareg, despite its unibody design, is a real SUV, not a soft-roader. Alongside that, buyers can look forward to beautifully furnished cabins equipped with plenty of standard convenience and safety features.
- Upscale interior, polished road manners, amazingly adept off-road, solid construction, lengthy standard equipment list.
- Poor fuel economy, not a lot of room in the backseat, no in-dash CD changer.

2004 Volkswagen Touareg - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By J. MILLER - April 28 - 3:46 pmI special ordered my Volkswagen Touareg to get all options except navigation. I have towed 7,500 lbs. from Florida to Michigan no problem! I also have done some serious off roading in Michigans state preserves and found out that the Touareg will out Jeep a Jeep. It even feels good at high speeds. At 80 - 85 mph it returns 16mpg. Having to perform maintenance every 10,000 miles is salty but well done. the new tires that I put on it at 30,000 miles improved the ride and handling beyond belief. I am so happy with my total VW experience that we bought 2006 Jetta TDI from the same dealer.

Finally I got a quality car. - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By Leo Yudysky - March 28 - 10:06 amI purchased my 2004 Volkswagen Touareg V6 new, it had a few electronic bugs, no pun, but the dealer fixed them all and they didnt come back. It is an extremely high quality vehicle after being in American cars for 30 years. If youre in snow country your problems are gone. It has excellent traction and clearance. Its super quiet. The luxurious interior has real wood and metal accents. The seats are firm but have infinitely variable adjustment. I love the navigation system and cockpit design, it is like being in a jet aircraft. the sound system is the best that Ive ever had and VW does not overrate itself. The factory tires are huge and wear out quickly but they are rated 200 and extra soft for traction. The transmission is so smooth you can hardly hear it shift through its 6 speeds.

V6 3.2L Touareg - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By Chulsoo - March 5 - 2:00 amI bought the Touareg for my wife after the birth of our first child. We were looking for a safe car which was stylish and fun to drive. We looked at the BMW X5 and the Acura MDX. The Touareg by far was the most economical, stylish and quality vehicle that we evaluated. It also was not a mammoth vehicke like the X5. The vehicle came with several standard features which were only expensive options on the BMW. Even with Navigation, the vehicle price was about 4K lower than the Acura and about 12K lower than the BMW.

Won Me Over - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By medwards - February 25 - 7:06 amI am not an SUV person. I typically prefer small, nimble and quick cars. But when my accountant explained the tax advantage that was available, I decided to take the plunge. The Touareg has proven surprisingly capable in every situation whether on a deserted highway at high speeds or in a dry stream bed halfway up a mountain. It swallows plenty of cargo and carries four people in luxury. Ive also become a huge proponent of all-wheel drive. The Touareg seems unflappable. Any time theres the least bit of precipitation, its the vehicle that I take.

Touareg--no compromise - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By xp - February 22 - 10:00 amI dont think I could ever buy a vehicle without air suspension again. Its really a no-compromise experience. Sticks to the road like nothing I have driven before. There is almost no perceptible body lean in aggressive maneuvering. No SUV handles better than this one. Im pretty impressed with the v8 overall. When I do a throttle kick- down, I get good response without a noticeable delay. Tranmission shifts harder that Id like. The controls are generally intuitive. Its the little details that make the most difference here. The cockpit is quite amazing looking overall. Visibility is great. The rear folding seatbacks are finicky about locking back in.

Touraeg Luxury SUV - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By mikes - January 11 - 10:43 amIve owned my Touraeg two years and am completely satisfied. Other than its poor gas mileage, this truck is exceptional. It handles like a sports car, has a very firm, comfortable ride, has superb acceleration (with V8), has one of the highest towing ratings in its class, has the interior finish youd expect of a luxury car, interior cabin noise is phenomenal, and the stereo rocks. Plus the body style is one of the sharpest.

Best Of The Lot - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By wolfman009 - December 15 - 10:00 amI researched many SUVs such as Infinity, Nissan, Acura, Lexus, Honda, BMW and Toyota and found the Touareg superior to all of them. VW has done an excellent job with their first entry into the SUV market. This is one vehicle I was really excited about buying. Hope the Touareg turns out to be reliable , if so it will be the best vehicle I have ever owned.
