With lots of torque, the Touareg moves its bulk quickly, handling all ordinary driving situations effortlessly. It's fairly quick off the line, cruises at high speed easily, and overtakes on the highway rapidly. see full Volkswagen Touareg review |

LOVE the diesel torque off the line. Drove a V6 Toyota 4Runner and compared to the V6 in the Diesel! What a let down on the 4Runner, you mash the gas and you wait for the engine/vehicle to pick up speed, there is no pushing back into the seat that you get from the torque of a Diesel. see full Volkswagen Touareg review |
