just as the phaeton represents volkswagen's top-level manufacturing technology in luxury sedans, the touareg is volkswagen's best answer to the question of how to build a flagship suv.

volkswagen touareg, friends who are familiar with this car will know what kind of product this is. the volkswagen touareg was born on the mlb evo platform. other models on the same platform include the audi q7, bentley bentayga, porsche cayenne, and lamborghini urus.

as products of the same mother, we can sense how top-notch the volkswagen touareg is in terms of mechanical quality. since the birth of the first generation of volkswagen touareg in 2002, the volkswagen touareg has now reached its fifth generation.

in addition to better mechanical performance, the volkswagen touareg now also has good intelligent performance. i happened to test drive the new volkswagen touareg a few days ago. the most vivid impression of the touareg is that it is an "all-round model."

as an imported medium-to-large suv, the volkswagen touareg 2.0t version is equipped with a 2.0 tsi turbocharged engine, which can release a maximum horsepower of 265 and a peak torque of 370 nm.

the more powerful 3.0t v6 version has a maximum engine output power of 340 horsepower and a peak torque of 450 nm. both power options are matched with zf's longitudinal 8at gearbox.

when driving on ordinary roads, the driving quality of the volkswagen touareg is already very good. for example, the five-link independent suspension structure at the front and rear of the volkswagen touareg ensures the comfort and handling of the vehicle, especially the rear suspension, which can automatically adjust the camber angle when the suspension stroke is compressed, so that the rear tire tread can obtain a more compliant ground contact angle, thereby improving grip and handling stability.

however, as an all-round luxury suv, the volkswagen touareg's performance is still on unpaved roads.

i had a brief off-road test drive and found that the touareg was able to pass through some special sections such as steep slopes, side slopes, and cross axles relatively easily. in particular, the touareg itself is equipped with an air suspension system. when encountering off-road scenes, by adjusting the air suspension system to the highest setting, a higher ground clearance, approach angle, and departure angle can be obtained.

the maximum adjustment range of touareg's air suspension is 148mm-258mm, while the approach angle and departure angle reach 28° and the longitudinal passing angle is 22°, which basically ensures strong passing performance.

it is also supported by powerful power and flexible power distribution. for example, the 4motion® permanent four-wheel drive system equipped in the touareg adopts a torsen central differential with a purely mechanical structure and has a limited slip locking function.

compared with the multi-plate clutch four-wheel drive system, the torsen four-wheel drive has almost no delay when the front and rear axles slip, and can directly lock the slipping wheels to avoid power loss.

based on the purely mechanical structure, the entire four-wheel drive system of the touareg can also distribute up to 70% of the torque to the front axle of the vehicle, and up to 80% of the torque to the rear axle.

at the same time, the touareg is also equipped with an all-wheel steering system, which can instantly adjust the four-wheel power distribution and provide a maximum steering angle of 5° for the two rear wheels.

on special off-road sections, the flexible power distribution, assisted by torsen central differential lock, rear-wheel steering and other functions, will enable the volkswagen touareg to demonstrate excellent traction, grip and climbing capabilities.

after some on-site experience, i found that even the 2.0t version of the volkswagen touareg can easily pass some difficult sections such as cross-axles and steep slopes. if it is the 3.0 t v6 powered version, it will surely be even easier.

compared with its hardcore mechanical qualities, volkswagen touareg has also done well in terms of intelligence. for example, as soon as you enter the touareg's cockpit, you can see a 15-inch central control screen and a 12-inch full lcd instrument. at the same time, there is also a hud head-up display system with a display area of ​​217 x 88 mm in the front.

as a flagship suv, the volkswagen touareg has a rich variety of functional configurations, such as a dynaudio audio system, 18-way electric adjustment of the front seats, 8 seat massage modes, night vision system, and assisted driving functions such as acc adaptive cruise control, lane keeping system, blind spot monitoring and lane change assist system, and pre-collision safety system.

in general, after experiencing it, the volkswagen touareg is well-deserved as a flagship suv, and its driving experience in various road conditions also demonstrates the qualities that a traditional luxury suv should have.

especially at this time, the current price of volkswagen touareg starts at only 587,800 yuan. compared with the million-level lamborghini urus, bentley bentayga, porsche cayenne and other models on the same platform, considering the same chassis materials, body structure and other product aspects, it can be said that choosing volkswagen touareg is not only quite cost-effective, but also a very pragmatic and low-key choice.
