賓利添越的同門師弟？動態試駕全新大眾途銳：大眾最頂級的旗艦SUV【車之感深度車評】

Full driving review of the updated VW Touareg As you might know, this is also a sibling to the Audi Q8 The Porsche Cayenne and the Bentley Bentayga And the chassis all built in the very same factory And this one here is basically the cheapest of the siblings Is this a strong thing for the Touareg or is there more And what have they changed Let's find out with Thomas and Auto Gefühl In 4K full screen full length Let's go here with the front Which has been updated here with the very nice horizontal stress Look at that, this integrated light strip here in the middle now And new headlamps, now HD matrix So you have an elaborated high beam function for example New three element daytime light signature And you only see it really from the very front Then they are very visible And you can also change a lot with the lights in the infotainment system We'll take a look at that very soon Turning indicators in the front Dual styling in a way because you have the cascading function At the same time, it comes like a live and a pulsing style So either we usually see either or In this case, they have combined both of these effects 4 meters 88 or 192 inches is the length here of the Touareg 19 to 22 inch wheels These ones here are black 20 inch wheels with winter tires So they look in comparison a little bit smaller New here with the facelift is a roof sensor So it detects if you have roof weight or not And then the suspension is tuned accordingly And that is giving you actually a better ride also When you do not have some weight on the roof Because before they had to calculate or set up the suspension That it would work with or without roof weight in both cases So a better setup now for the suspension Base versions of the Touareg will not get HD matrix lamps And also have the standard suspension Most Touaregs being sold will now have the HD matrix lamps And the air suspension This one here in the elegance trim However, then for the plug-in hybrid The usually available rear axle steering And the anti-tilt control not available for the plug-in model And rear here with the very nice cascading turning indicators And new signature at the sides Also in the middle part And also illuminated VW logo here in red That looks pretty striking Big Touareg lettering So I think the rear is the thing that has changed most visually here with the facelift Do you like it? And for example here in the IQ light settings Then you can also change the animations for the You know, that's the welcome and goodbye light Key fob, slim, nice, good Then door closing sound Very solid, I like that You can also get a soft closing here Like that, nice Then inside of the doors Really wrapped tightly Looks like good build quality Here we have matte wood decor element for example And the inside door pockets Let's check that out Also have some felt covering at the lower part for example Then interior here with some capacitive BS touch buttons at the steering wheel Yeah, they're not that good to use At least we have the heated steering wheel command directly at the steering wheel as well Then we have contour stitches here on the soft touch dashboard Seats sadly only animal skin available So there are no alternatives there on the horizon They will also not change that But of course different with the new ID models for example The seating comfort in general on these Ergo comfort seats however is really good Then you have this upright seating position Command driving position And the headroom here with 189, 602 Still left And you also have this panoramic roof And the cool thing is This is actually one you can still really open And there's also a shade available if there is a really really hot day But like that You can leave a lot of fresh air Then here the middle console You have adaptive cupholders and it works for large bottles as well Very good build quality here Still a turning jog here for the volume Also interesting sound Also this real shifting lever for the automatic gearbox That's cool However what I don't favor that much is here this front cubby hole You slide this one open And then you see already like your hand is almost like you know getting stuck in there And then when you want to push it back again Like you have to really push it hardly in So yeah that's not ideal The front inductive charging pad and USB-C charging And then here this really large armrest Very well attached and USB-C chargers underneath And what they have updated here with the facelift is here this knee pad At the inside middle console on the driver's side This one here is softer However not on the passenger side Interior cockpit overview Here the steering wheel goes electrically in and out up and down And you have this innovation cockpit that has this one unit But consists of two different screens 15 inch here So overall a really nice and likable design here Once again with these matte wood inlets And you can also get this head-up display The infotainment has been updated Is it super quick now? Not really However this main menu looks better now And that one also works faster Most of the time you use Apple CarPlay And with auto integration It looks like this goes all the way here That's pretty cool And one thing you actually have to know is Where are the options here? So you go to vehicle And then you ask yourself OK what else is there? And then there it is There are the settings And then you can go through all the stuff So you just have to know that it's there Climate control by the way here Plus and minus And here for the seat heating or the seat cooling And the Dynaudio sound system is really nice Like that And this is your drive control center You can go sport mode But also to the off-road modes and so on And you can also individually Pump up the air suspension But it also goes according to the driving modes When it's dark and the headlamps are on You can see the ambient lighting Pretty cool here And it's also split You can change the lower part Like this line here And the cup holders Or you can also just change the upper part there With the integrated Touareg logo It looks really spectacular And of course you can also sync that if you like Pretty cool, isn't it? And here at the side you have a nice puddle light To show you the way to the door Now Leah is showing you a very interesting feature With the sun lines right there Because there is a double one Not many cars have that anymore So here for the side sun for example Then when you have like special light situations Where it kind of comes from both sides You can protect yourself Definitely have enough space here as a tall adult Here knee room wise Even if a tall driver is driving like this And also as for the headroom With 189 or 6 for 2 Is fine with this panoramic roof Very nice and upright seating position You can also vary here the back angle of the seat More sleeping position or more upright This middle seat here has this huge middle tunnel But an own climate unit as well And even cooler in this lower unit there Look at that when you put this one open USB-C charging now And a real powered socket here 230 volt that's nice And actually also the middle seat is fairly comfortable And that is not that you know That often with the vehicles You can put down this here for couples They are not adaptive though Oh and I like this manual rear shade here Very nicely cut out And also this top part here is soft touch at the rear Look at these touch lights here in the rear They are nice aren't they The trunk or the boot 810 liters or 655 Little bit reduced for the plug-in hybrid However, good width here More than a meter or 40 inches The length is about 90 centimeters or 36 inches And here the height a little bit less than 80 centimeters Or 30 inches Overall quite good result You can fold the seats right here Left and right easily done You can then put the seats really flat From the passenger cabin if you like And the overall length to the seats We are having here a little bit more than 170 meters Or 67 inches The charging cable needs to be stored right here You can also put that one flat here Or battery vacuum cleaner Just so everything always clean for you And what's also interesting is that We can lower the vehicle If you have the air suspension To load in and out things easier And also the towing hook can be folded out Electrically right here at the bottom Takes some seconds There we go, nice Touareg is now all about the 3.0 liter V6 TDI The diesel or the TSI the turbo petrol engine There's also the basis for the plug-in hybrid version Here the V6 TSI And usually the acceleration figure here Is around 6 seconds Classic all-wheel drive with some rear wheel bias And in the plug-in hybrid version Then you also have an integrated electric motor So it doesn't change the all-wheel drive distribution However, with the update here now Still at 14 kilowatt hours net With the plug-in hybrid battery They did not go for the battery upgrade Like with the Porsche Cayenne So definitely a reason less to go for the plug-in hybrid And also the consumption Which is still super super high Around 13 liters here for the plug-in hybrid When the battery is depleted Which is very interesting or important Because usually when For some reason we had the Toyota Prius The plug-in hybrid version And when the battery was depleted there The hybrid system was working Like it would be an inbuilt hybrid system Here it does not work at all When the battery is depleted You have actually even higher consumption Than you would have with a pure petrol engine Just of the, you know, the increased weight and so on And in general I have used this very engine here In several other models of the corporation And here it's the highest in the consumption Even comparing to the Audi Q8 and the Porsche Cayenne Welcome to Thomas' driving lounge VW Touareg Sport mode 70 kilometers an hour to 120 That was quick Really nice Acceleration figure for the V6 TSI Usually around 6 seconds And when you have the plug-in hybrid version here Due to the increased weight The normal PF is a little bit slower And the R PF which has the same tech It's just a little bit tuned higher That one is a second quicker Than the pure petrol engine actually But all than more or less in the same region And here on the motorway German Autobahn Is a very good vehicle for that Because it's super comfortable With its upright seating position It's also decently silent Even at higher speeds here Although it's pushing the wind most obviously And suspension Here the air suspension is doing a good job In the sport mode by the way It goes a little bit stiffer than And when you would close your eyes now Theoretically obviously I won't do it now Yeah Leo is also He's not gonna do that is he I feel that This is very similar to the other siblings So yes of course They're trying to sell you Especially the Cayenne and the Bentayga For double the money Or maybe even more Are they worth it technology wise Well plug-in hybrid sense In a plug-in hybrid sense The Cayenne gets a bigger battery now That is a significant technology difference Yes And also this one here Doesn't get the rear axle steering As a plug-in hybrid But generally speaking They are all more or less the same vehicle And of course Audi Porsche and Bentley doesn't don't want to hear that Because they charge you much more money Than here for the Touareg But it's just the case They are built in the very same factory Yes the Bentley is then shipped over And then finished with all the details But all the tech that is installed They're built in the same factory And it's more or less the same vehicle Not in the way of that It's like pure batch engineering There are differences But the base feeling of that platform here Is more or less the same And it's a good one you know Also with this even entry You know like the door sill to the floor mat and so on And it just works It's a very good product overall No matter which one you pick up those Here let's go back Yeah we are still in sport mode Acceleration Because we have freeway And now actually to unlimited speed Also shows me that sign in the instruments And let's see also This car pass here Right over here When I use the turning indicators This blind spot monitor is also giving me Another flash symbol So an additional warning Now from 100 kilometers an hour We're already at speed Let's check the acceleration Let's go 140 160 170 180 And now we cancel Just for security reasons Now we have some recuperation Finally from the plug-in hybrid So good acceleration Also still I mean Considering it's a large SUV Very silent here Good noise isolation Lia always has a very good sense for the noise Certainly Yeah OK I mean she has better ears than I do So or maybe Probably I went too often clubbing When I was younger But I always wear earplugs You know but still Maybe that's the case Or I don't know She can hear much better than I do And that's always a good sign So it's very calm and relaxing Especially on long motorway trips And of course then usually We would go back to the normal mode You also can charge by the way The battery while driving But that's not efficient at all Doesn't make any sense And then there are also these off-road modes For example This is an off-road capable vehicle We also have special off-road episodes Of the Touareg from this generation They are super interesting to watch You can check them all out It's easy by the way to find it Also when you use the YouTube search And just put in Autogefühl So our channel name You don't have to use the German umlauts With you it will work as well Just Autogefühl Touareg And then you'll find all of these episodes For example We've been driving this off-road in Morocco Which was a very epic ride definitely So you know again on the gas Very good performance And also steering input It's very precise Good reactions Even the lane changes It's very good Let's do one at 150 kilometers an hour Go here Really nice Doesn't shake up too much The setup is actually quite sporty I feel that the setup is a little bit sportier Than the previous You know it's pre-facelift version Maybe has to do with this new roof sensor also Because now it's feeling Hey there's no roof float on it So I can put the suspension in a way That it's better for the handling Without weight on the roof That might be something about that Do I miss the rear axle steering On the motorway obviously not But in the city yes definitely So especially on tight European roads Or parking in and out Basic garage The rear axle steering Definitely makes a lot of sense And it's not available For the plug-in hybrid version So in Europe probably It is wiser to still go with the diesel For this version here Yeah we have to say that For the lowest fuel consumption Kind of irritating by the way Here's the software version When you change the temperature Here in the car play mode Everything in the background gets dark What is this and why Or here when you use the heat heating or something Don't see a good reason for that Only if you use the car internal GPS And then go for the temperature It kind of gets like out But I mean still you can't see stuff In the background Yeah I mean when they did the software update now I don't know why they didn't consider this So this should be better Also you know let's see I'm in here and then I want to go back To the car play again Then I have to wait again Here for this overlay But at least you have this You know so this is actually good That you have these top symbols You know and then you can switch back To the car play for example right here So overall the other software updates Still make sense It's also a little bit quicker and more reactive Yeah how well this one is driving It's really just It's like really the specialty of this vehicle How good this platform here is driving That counts for the Q8 and the Cayenne And the Bentayga And realistically you really have to say The Touareg is the most clever choice of these ones Because you just pay the least amount of money For more or less the same experience Especially when you're in the sport mode It comes close to the Q8 or Cayenne experience Yes of course the Cayenne will be even sportier And there are sportier versions of that And you can also get an A-cylinder We're just talking about what is the most clever choice For the majority of customers Still they do not offer any Animal skin alternatives here So that's what I would expect When I want to personally pick that vehicle So that would be a deal breaker to me But in general of course Definitely a more clever choice In comparison to the more expensive models And some city driving So what I do criticize Especially about the plug-in hybrid version is Usually when I have plug-in hybrids Especially Toyota ones Then it doesn't really matter If it's hybrid or plug-in hybrid If the plug-in hybrid battery is depleted It works like a hybrid still And here when I lift my foot on the throttle Doesn't now you know like Sometimes in very rare occasions It goes to there back again So it's like just for a split second It goes in the electric mode And that's it So there's hardly any recuperation into the battery And that is then used as the significant buffer To move the vehicle When you're just slightly on the throttle and so on You hardly have any electric moments So this here only makes sense If you still get a governmental subsidy In your country for a plug-in hybrid for example Other than that The plug-in hybrid version of the Touareg Makes no sense at all And also the Cayenne battery is not in here So this one is still at 14 kilowatt hours net Maybe for rare occasions Where someone has like a driver profile 10 kilometers every day to work and back again You can charge it work at home Drive electric And then on the weekend You drive with the petrol That would make sense in a way But all other cases Rather go for the pure petrol Or in this case The pure diesel would also make sense Yeah as I said earlier The fuel consumption is really really high And I had a lower fuel consumption With the pure petrol engine actually Pure electric driving by the way Would work up to a speed of 140 kilometers an hour What is very good however Is the noise insulation So it's really silent here For example around 1 kilometer an hour Around 60 miles an hour Super easy Super comfortable as well 20 inch wheels with winter tires here Have this upright seating position Good visibility roundabout So there's relaxed driving and traveling feeling That is what makes this Touareg here So special actually And you should check out the competition Like the Porsche Cayenne Or the Audi Q8
