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.

Great SUV - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By Steven - March 1 - 12:56 pmIt is a fun SUV to drive. It handles great and acceleration is also great. I was drivng a CLK320 for a few months and once I started Driving the Touareg the CLK felt like it had slow acceleration atleast from a low speed to a higher speed. The car will fly from 45mph to 80mph in a matter of a lite touch on the pedal and a few seconds. This is the V8 engine of course. People are allways surprised how well this 5,400lb SUV can takeoff. Sport mode and the triptronic tramission really makes the car fly. Off Road ability is the best of any Unibody Truck sold on the market it can match up with Jeep, Hummer, Benz and Land Rover. The interior is great just as good as any Ranger Rover. The Touareg is a great vehicle.

Fun Drive - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By joek71 - February 23 - 2:00 amI just got my Touareg and it is a eye catcher, people look at even poeple from other SUVs. I had fun driving it from the dealer to the house, I loved the interior very comfortable and the drive is great and handles very well on turns. The only thing is a little lack of power on the V6 when you give gas it takes a little longer to accelerate,but I am coming from driving a C-320. The point is that this is a great car. The gas economy could be a little better, but other then that it is worth every penny.

Road Beast - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By JimboJones - February 23 - 2:00 amHeres the story, this rig is not really about refined elegance, so if thats what youre looking for try a Lexus RX. It makes a lot of noise under throttle. Mine has a big V8 (the only one worth getting since the v6 is a DOG), and you can hear it all the time. Its fast, and pretty, but not totally nimble and quiet. Solid too, without loosing all road feedback.

Love this car! - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By LoveMyTREG - February 18 - 10:00 amI bought a Touareg after owning an FX35 for three months. The FX35 never felt "right" too sporty in performance and atitude. Test drove a Touareg V6 and fell in love. Great ride - no attitude. Feels solid. Be sure to get the air suspension - makes a big difference in handling/performance. V6 has enough power.

Love My Touareg! - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By mghartman - February 11 - 10:00 amI purchased my V6 Touareg in Nov 2003 and have around 12,000 miles on it at this time. This is a wonderful vehicle for long road trips in a variety of conditions -- dry, rain or ice. It is also a nice ride in town or on freeways. If I had it to do over again, I would purchase this very same vehicle. I absolutely love it!

Fun and Stylish Driving - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By dfhl923 - February 8 - 7:50 pmHaving owned a Nissan Pathfinder and a Toyota 4Runner, this SUV topped them all. It is well built and has great handing, stylish, luxurious, fashinable, and just down right fun. Two draw backs: no automatic seats (and the crank turn is difficult) and try not to pour or get anything on the console or gear shift area. I had an air freshner attached to my AC vent. It leaked and it took the finish off the mentioned areas. It doesnt look very good. Otherwise, this is a fabulous car.

Awe-inspiring SUV - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By aj0684 - January 24 - 10:00 amIts an absolutely gorgeous SUV inside and out. If you love VWs and desire an SUV like my wife and I, this is it. We lease an XC90 also and this rides better. Cant wait for the snow here in MI.

The Touareg-fantastic car - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By sides - January 24 - 10:00 amThis car IS all that it is cracked up to be. The drive is excellent and and so is the luxurious inside. The GPS is great and really comes in handy. It is a a fantastic car due to its versatility. It is a fantastic luxury SUV as well as an excellent offroad car (Ive taken it offroad). The car has a very smooth drive and a lot of power. 310 horse! When you shift it into Sport mode (S) it really can fly. I think this car beats the FXs and the RX330 due to its versatility and price. You get a lot more for the money. The major downside of this car is the fuel efficiency.

Not impressed with VW Toureg - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By Johny25252 - January 11 - 2:00 amNot really impressed with the SUV for the price tag Acura MDX sounds much better. Brakes touchy, interior too complicated(Control Panel), Not enough storage space, Back seating is not specious as it should be, Trunk is tricky to open, due to its shape and the way of openning. Driving it is comfy but due to brakes being so tuchy it could be less fun on a big stop and go trafic. Not really satisfied with the vehicle

DO NOT BUY - 2004 Volkswagen Touareg
By Mary C - December 27 - 1:13 amHigh expectations for this model turned into nothing but a series of problems. Drive shaft at 17,000 miles, remove and install prop shaft at 17,000, new stepper motor at 16,000 relocate antenna, replace rear hatch glass latch, 11,000 miles, remove and install differential motor 17,000, defective wheel on board notice on going finally installed new computer system, new tires first 15,000 miles. I could go on and on. The straw at 85,000 needs another drive shaft and possibly a differential, cost 2000 to 6000. Continuing vibration when driving went unaddressed until it was out of warranty. Volkswagen offered us 1500 towards the purchase of a new car. DO NOT PURCHASE A TOUREG!
