The Volkswagen Touareg has always been a favorite for drivers who want something smooth, smart, and easy to live with. In the UAE, it stands out as a quiet leader in the world of premium SUVs. It doesn’t try to show off, but it has everything you need for city drives, long trips, and weekend getaways. Let’s take a closer look at what makes the Touareg a great option for UAE roads.
Yes, and that’s one of its best features. The Touareg has soft seats, smooth air suspension, and a very quiet cabin. Even on long drives from Dubai to Abu Dhabi or up to Ras Al Khaimah, you’ll feel relaxed. The back seats have plenty of space, and the boot is big enough for luggage or shopping trips. Whether you’re going with family or just driving solo, the comfort stays top level.
It can, thanks to two engine options: a 2.0L turbo with 250 hp and a stronger 3.0L V6 with 340 hp. Both come with 4Motion all-wheel drive, which means better grip in tricky road conditions. It’s smooth in the city and strong on the highway. You can also take it off-road for light desert trips, and it won’t let you down. The power is there when you need it, but it still feels easy to drive.
Absolutely. The large 15-inch touchscreen controls most functions, and there’s also a full digital driver display. You get wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a head-up display, and even massage seats in higher trims. It also has a 360° camera, adaptive cruise control, and smart headlights that adjust to your surroundings. Everything feels simple to use and made to make your drive easier.
For what it offers, yes. The starting price for the Base 2.0L TSI (Trend) is AED 199,900, and it can go up depending on the trim and engine. But you get a 5-year unlimited kilometer warranty, strong build quality, and many features found in more expensive SUVs. If you’re looking for value without giving up comfort or tech, the Touareg gives you a solid deal.
