The Volkswagen Design team set out to give the Touareg a significantly more elegant appearance based on the new Volkswagen Design DNA. This applies as much to the new horizontally aligned front end with its distinctive headlights as it does to the rear section and its unmistakable night-time rear light design, which is typical for the Touareg, and a leaner, athletic body. This has resulted in an SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle) that has a sustainable visual effect, timeless styling that makes a qualitative statement, showing dynamic proportions and presence, yet remaining reserved in its elegance and stylish.
