VW Touareg: Next-generation to be 7-seater

The next-generation VW Touareg, coming in 2010, will be available as 7-seater. Just as a reminder: the Audi Q7 is a 7-seater, available today.

First, it turned the SUV into a seven seat with increased efficiency by using more aluminum to lessen weight. The 2010 Touareg will come with a 208kW 3.2 liter V6 petrol, or gasoline, engine or a 257 kW 4.2 liter V8. Diesels are also on the table with either a 2.7 or 3.0 turbodiesel being offered. All are matched with a six speed automatic gearbox.
