Vehicle Tests > Strategic re-alignment

As attractive as the pricing may be, a facelifted model is as close as six months away so many buyers may wish to wait for the latest version and could hold off on a Touareg purchase. The facelifted model was launched in Europe with a new 4.2litre FSI petrol V8 and VW Australia says it hasn't ruled our reintroducing a petrol V8 to the Touareg range if the market demands it. There's also a turbodiesel V8 within the VW group that could be slated for Touareg possibly as a replacement for the V10 a few years down the track.

So while these latest revisions should see Touareg sales tick along nicely, any significant rise in sales may not be apparent until next year.
