The SUV is making a slow decline in the automotive industry, with gas-guzzler critics pushing a return to the smaller, more eco-friendly vehicles of the next generation. But even the slowing production of a car style once popularized by American consumers can't stop the momentum of a rolling truck. A simple solution to many of the SUV's problems is to take the new fuel-efficient technology the industry is now regularly spitting out and implement it as part of up-and-coming SUV models.
Thanks to Volkswagen, a German manufacturer traditionally enthralled with smaller vehicles, we won't have to witness the phasing-out of the SUV just yet – much to the excitement of Downers Grove Volkswagen drivers across the suburb. According to Volkswagen, the new Touareg is "the most technically innovative ‘VW' since the brand has been in existence. Capping off some of the best features of the Volkswagen Touareg are new assistance and safety systems – as well as a variety of engines that are 20 percent more fuel efficient than in the past. VW Downers Grove drivers can finally uncross their fingers; the future is here.
The new Touareg gains a lot of agility from the fact that it was designed to ride closer to the ground than past models, and aerodynamic refinements also contribute to the spectacular functionality that savvy consumers can try out at Downers Grove Volkswagen Touareg dealers in the coming months. On top of that, Touareg's are now offered with a standard 8-speed automatic transmission, breaking the industry mold on the segment and revolutionizing fuel economy in comparison to previous models. If you enjoy a tight ride in an SUV, it's almost high time to meet me at a Downers Grove Volkswagen dealer for a test-drive. Whether you show up or not, I'll be there with bells on.
Standard all-wheel drive in the Touareg has been modified in lieu of better fuel economy, with base versions getting standard all-wheel drive with Torsen limited-slip differential. While you won't be able to check it out when you visit Downers Grove Volkswagen Touareg dealers, this car also handles beautifully in off-road activities. The new model Touareg is lighter and more fuel efficient with cat-like reflexes, also adding a more functional, beautiful and spacious interior to its long list of advantages. Surely Downers Grove VW dealers are preparing themselves for a taste of the future.
According to the VW press release on the new Touareg, the car's past incarnations have already made waves across the industry. "About 500,000 car drivers chose to buy the first generation of the SUV. It is a luxury sport utility vehicle that offers a high level of comfort, sporty driving properties, avant-garde styling, excellent quality and unlimited expedition capabilities – essentially the best of the passenger car and off-road worlds unified in one concept. This is now being followed up by the new Touareg – a high-end and versatile all-round vehicle that brings these two worlds together even more perfectly. The Touareg will already be available at dealers in April."
