Volkswagen is unveiling the new Touareg at a world premiere taking place on March 23 in Beijing, China and pre-sale will be available from May across the region.

Volkswagen is revealing the new Touareg and the entire range of its technical capabilities and comprehensive features for the first time in the world premiere.

Standing at the top of the model range, the Touareg shows all of the brand's power with its expressive design, innovative technologies and dynamic handling properties.

The highly expressive design by Klaus Bischoff, head of Volkswagen Design and his team have given the new Touareg an unmistakable appearance that is strong in character. A phalanx of innovative assistance systems gives it a maximum degree of safety and comfort.

One of the largest digital cockpits in its class, the Innovision Cockpit, opens up a new type of infotainment environment. Its connectivity makes it a driving internet node. The drivetrain, air suspension, rear-wheel steering and roll stabilisation all ensure a safe and dynamic driving experience.

With the new Touareg, Volkswagen is continuing the success story of this model series in a third generation. The exclusive SUV C-segment is currently one of the fastest growing segments in global automotive markets and is expected to double its volume by the year 2023 in China, for example.

The Touareg has demonstrated its performance power and driving capabilities impressively, in around one million units, ever since the model series launched in 2002 –on-road, off-road and on rally trails around the world. Highlights include wins in the Dakar Rally events in the years 2009-2011. – TradeArabia News Service
