There is an understated elegance to the Touareg that Volkswagen hopes
Indian buyers will appreciate. The sober cousin of the Porsche Cayenne,
the Touareg will be launched at the Auto Expo 2012 and prices are likely
to start at Rs 55 lakh. You can identify the Touareg as a VW from a
mile away and the styling on the whole is quite handsome. There is an
abundance of space inside and quality should conform to VW’s global
standards. India is likely to receive a 3-litre diesel engine.
Additionally, VW could bring a 3-litre petrol-electric hybrid to promote
its green credentials. Question is, will you pay so much for a VW?
