2008-2009 Volkswagen Touareg 2
Mid-size SUV
Volkswagen's first SUV came standard with enough luxury features to be a standout in the midsize five-passenger luxury crowd. It was available with a V6, V8 and diesel motors. All trim levels on this generation of the Touareg came standard with all-wheel drive (including low-range gearing.) Current pricing levels can make for some good values on the pre-owned maket.
