VW Touareg is the Best car ever
Solid comfortable car that make me and my kids feel safe. No performance issues only ever take it on to get serviced when it's due. The r line offers many features that make the car look great on the outside and easy, fun, and comfortable on the inside. I have no complaints about this car and wish it will last me forever

I love my 2014 VW Touareg even though I can't spell it, lol.
Bought it used, it was a rental car. I LOVE it! The seats are very comfortable. The view from front and rear is large. I find some SUVs have a poor rear view window, small or narrow window. I love the pickup the V8 has! I've had very few issues. A leaking fluid container which they repaired, not expensive. I really can't think of anything else except general maintenance which is also great with the 10,000 mile oil changes! I wish I had keyless entry and driving and updated electronics hookups but still not bad it does have Bluetooth and 1 USB port. I still love it and I'm not looking to replace it even at 5 years old.

Very spacious and extremely affordable
When we bought the VW minivan we knew that we needed it for the space with us having children and loving to travel. It's great on gas mileage. Extremely comfortable ride especially on long distance trips. We are able to fit all of our luggage comfortably and still have room to move

Thinking about a touareg? Do it! You will not be sorry!
Have had no problems with this vehicle, extremely reliable, luxuriously comfortable with all the bells and whistles. Thoughtful features built in. This is a great around town or long trip car. Volkswagens are notoriously reliable, especially the diesel models. I wouldn't drive anything else. I love it!

Reliable and classic, the 2014 Volkswagen Touareg.
My Touareg has a beautiful tan interior with a really nice wheel. I love the set up of the radio and dashboard. It is not too big or small. I love how it is raised off the ground. The inside is incredibly classy and not hard to keep clean at all. I haven't had too many problems with my Volkswagen. It is comfortable and just the right size. I am completely obsessed with the amount of sunlight it lets in. The sun roof is for sure one of my favorite features. Also the trunk is very roomy. Big enough to store plenty of items. I usually put my yoga mat back there. The Tuareg is a great car for someone who likes to be on the go.

An amazing vehicles that anyone can handle. The amenities, details wonderful.
My vehicle is amazing. Mileage is phenomenal and it glides through the city and in the highways. Reliability is right on point. Driving during the winter is truly safe and no worry free. I must admit, initially I was concern this vehicle would not be female friendly, instead it drives like a luxurious car.

It is held up against time!
It is loud and there have been some issues with the automatic features. For example, the sensor for the automatic lift gate opening is broke. The seats are very comfortable for long trips and the adjustability of the seats makes it a comfortable ride for everyone.

There’s an option for 4 wheel drive.
Minor issues with the electronic system that runs the controls for unlocking and locking the doors along with rolling up/down the window. There has been some rare issue with mine in specific as the Bluetooth for my phone has not been working and in order to fix it I must replace the entire electronic system so it is a bummer, but otherwise it is great.

The little bull in disguise.
The 2014 touareg is an all wheel drive, strong, great, reliable car, and is fun to drive, however it lacks lane departure alert, and heated steering wheel for cold northeast winters. There is a high cost for routine maintenance too. People call this vehicle the 'little bull in disguise'.

No problems that I have run into. It is reliable and only ever have to get it serviced for oil changes. One thing is I wish it had automatic start feature

Is The 2014 Volkswagen Touareg A Good Value?

Right now it's around $20,000. It's a bit more expensive than some in the same class but well worth it.
Maggie R.
It cost about $58,000 in 2014. It is a bit expensive and I probably wouldn't pay that again now that I have other kid related expenses but wouldn't trade it for the world
