The mid-size 2008 Volkswagen Touareg sport-utility vehicle looks like a car-based crossover vehicle, and even though it doesn’t have a ladder frame like some of the workhorse SUVs, it’s still capable of much more serious off-road situations and heavier towing tasks than other crossovers.
The 2008 Volkswagen Touareg keeps the same basic shape as last year’s model, but it incorporates a host of smaller changes inside and out and gains "Touareg2" badging. The headlights and front air intakes follow a new design, with more brightwork, and a new LED rear lamp design is introduced. Aerodynamics have been improved, roof rails are now standard, and a new rear spoiler fits much better with the Touareg’s silhouette.
