Leading the way
It always pays to lead, not follow. Take, for instance, the Touareg V6 TDI. Its mighty 3.0 litre common rail turbocharged diesel engine outputs 180kW of power and 550Nm of torque in Model Year 12 and 176kW of power and 550Nm of torque in Model Year 11. Mated to our smooth-shifting 8 speed automatic transmission and our 4MOTION® full-time all wheel drive system, it’ll take you wherever you want to go, on road or off.

Not every vehicle can blend comfort and performance the way the V6 TDI does. Its stylish Nappa, leather-appointed interior features chrome highlights and creature comforts including dual-zone air conditioning and the RNS850 satellite navigation system (with touch-screen controls and a hard drive for media storage). Its front seats have 12-way electric adjustment and electro-pneumatically adjustable side bolsters. The dashboard, centre console and doors feature Vavona ornamental wood decorative inserts.

Safety is also a priority for the V6 TDI. A mix of active and passive safety systems, including 9 airbags, safety optimised front seat head restraints and carefully-engineered crumple zones protect occupants if an incident occurs. Helping to prevent incidents are a range of driver assistance technologies including ABS, ESP, Brake Assist, Electronic Differential Lock (EDL) and Anti Slip Regulation (ASR). If off-road driving fi gures in your regular routine you can take further comfort in its specialised off road functions. These include ABSplus, hill descent assistance, traction control and an adapted transmission shift program.

These elements all combine to make the V6 TDI the leader of the pack whether you need a comfortable cruiser, a capable off-roader or a long-distance hauler.
