The new Volkswagen Touareg - Illuminated VW logo at the rear

The new Touareg is the first Volkswagen model to feature an illuminated logo at the rear. The red illuminated VW sign has also been permitted in Europe since January 2023. Previously, the illuminated brand logo was only permitted in markets such as China or the USA. Volkswagen has further developed the chassis of the Touareg, which is always all-wheel drive. Among other things, a roof load sensor is now used that is networked with the chassis electronics. The advantage: greater agility when the roof is not loaded. If, on the other hand, a roof box is fitted, the sensor detects this and passes this information on to assistance systems such as ESC. This increases the driving stability of the Touareg. The standard steel spring suspension and the optional dual-chamber air suspension have also been retuned to achieve a wider spread between maximum comfort on the one hand and optimum performance on the other.
