Exclusive images reveal more premium look for VW’s next SUV. Debut at Frankfurt in September.

Higher-Tech Touareg Pushes Upmarket

THE third-generation Volkswagen Touareg will take a marked leaped forward in terms of technology, design and connectivity and aim to give the brand a further push into a more premium market to help it rival the likes of Audi and BMW.

Our exclusive images reveal how the all new Touareg could look when it makes its global debut at September’s Frankfurt Motor Show. Luxurious range-topping models could hit £70,000 as they aim to steal sales from the Range Rover, Auto Express understands.

Volkswagen is positioning itself as the more mainstream premium brand within the VW Group, and closer to the likes of Audi in terms of prestige than Skoda or SEAT. The first real push into that market comes with the Arteon (driven on Page 26) – a rival for BMW’s 4 Series Gran Coupé – but VW will dial up its premium image with the next Touareg.

MIKE RUTHERFORD

DEMOCRACY. Overrated, I reckon. Making a mockery of it are self-serving politicians of the local, national and international variety, occupying the left, right or centre ground. And because they go about their business almost unchallenged by the 42 million drivers in Britain and the circa 1.5 billion globally, they're getting away with dumping their own iffy brands of democracy on us.
