Volkswagen Concern in store for Geneva's new Touareg. If previously SUV reminded pumped with steroids wagon Passat, now it looks like a pumped up with steroids Golf R sixth generation - a characteristic squint headlamps recognizable grille, large slatted air intakes. Nevertheless, the new Touareg looks less heavily primarily due to the slope of the rear rack and a higher parapet line. New 41 mm longer and 12 mm wider than its predecessor, but the 116 mm lower due to less ground clearance. Wheelbase grew from 2,855 to 2,893 mm. In this case, the car managed to throw 208 kg. A body become more rigid in torsion. The increased size of the benefit went back fares - they have become more legroom, the chair can be tilted, and the seats themselves are moving to 160 mm. Trunk volume has increased from 555 to 580 liters, and its maximum capacity when folded, the second number has increased from 1570 to 1642 liters. Design panel slightly adjusted by redistributing the buttons and around the ducts. The standard equipment of 6.5-inch display, but as an option available 8-inch navigation system, hard drive, 40 GB, DVD-player, and voice control. In addition to the two-band is available Four-zone climate control and seat ventilation. Steering wheel - in the style of VW Golf, and a selector gearbox "hammer" replaced by more familiar. The parking brake is now electric. The guys from Wolfsburg have sought to prove that their Touareg - a real SUV, and even organized a special program Touareg Experience to demonstrate skills car. But now the situation has changed. The database of Touareg transmission with permanent four-wheel drive and differential Torsen. As the younger brother Tiguan, has a button Off-Road, when clicked, activate off-setting ABS, ESP and ASR, enabled by an assistant while running and changing the algorithm shifting. And for those who crave more, there is an additional Terrain Tech Packet - low range, locking center and rear differentials. These vehicles are equipped with switch modes of transmission. They are just five: On-Road (Road), Off-Road (off-road with automatic locking differentials), Low (a lower number with a later switch gears and "honest" manual mode), manual locking center and rear differentials. Touareg, complete with off-road package, is able to overcome the 45-degree slopes. In addition to a spring suspension will be available modernized air, with an adaptive compensation rolls. For the new Volkswagen Touareg until there are three engines: V6 FSI, V6 TDI and V8 TDI. Modified petrol engine volume 3.6 liters now consumes just 9.9 l/100 km and 2.5 liters less than the previous version. Power and torque have not changed: 280 liters. with. and 360 Nm. Upgraded turbo V6 TDI (240 hp.. And 550 nm) also lost his appetite. It consumes only 7.4 liters of diesel per 100 km, almost 2 liters less than its predecessor. The gain in acceleration to 100 km / h - half a second (7,8 s). Motor V8 TDI - for the new Touareg. Volume of 4,2 liter turbodiesel produces 340 hp. with. and the fantastic torque of 800 Nm, but consumes just 9.1 liters per 100 kilometers. All engines will be paired with a new 8-speed automatic transmission, which has a positive effect on the dynamic performance and costs. Will also offer a hybrid version based on the so-called parallel scheme. Between the supercharged petrol V6 capacity of 333 liters. with. and 8-speed transmission installed electric capacity of 34 kW (47 hp..) with an additional clutch. At speeds up to 50 km / h electric car moves on. A gasoline engine plugged and unplugged from the transmission. In the dispersal of both motors are working together they give out 380 hp. with. and 580 Nm. When braking the electric motor acts as a generator, replenishing charge nickel metal hydride batteries. In addition, the motor has a system of "start / stop" and is able to disconnect from the transmission when the driver releases the accelerator pedal - so Touareg can travel a greater distance coasting. All these tricks are created in order to reduce fuel consumption. According to preliminary data, the hybrid saves up to 25% less fuel in urban and 17% - in mixed mode. Average consumption - just 8.2 liters per 100 kilometers. In this case, the hardest version of Touareg (2240 ??kg) is able to accelerate to 6.5 per hundred with a top speed - 240 km / h. So far known only to the price and configuration for the German market. New prices will start at 50,700 euros - so ask for a car with a turbo V6. It is even slightly less than the cost now a similar car the previous generation. Basic equipment machines have improved. The new Touareg in the "base" is equipped with adjustable and folding mirrors, rain sensor, audio system with touch screen and built-in CD-changer for six discs, the system "start / stop», ESP, a system for stabilizing the body, assistant to the ascent and descent from the mountain, headlights with backlight turns, adaptive brake signals, flashing when braking. There will also be offered an extensive list of additional equipment. For example, this system Omnidirection Area View from the four cameras, the control system of dead zones Side Assist, adaptive cruise control, capable of self-braking, bi-xenon headlights, which recognize other vehicles in front and adjust the beam of light. Here and there was a Land Rover Discovery 4, and the updated BMW X5 is a very serious competitor.
