Volkswagen Touran

Automobiles

The Volkswagen Touran is a compact multi-purpose vehicle that Volkswagen has made since 2003 and sold in Europe and other selected markets. The first generation, Typ 1T, arrived in 2003 and the second, Typ 5T, was introduced at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show; the Touran I can be seen as an extended Golf Plus and the Touran II as an extended Golf Sportsvan. Launch engines included a 1.6 FSI and two diesels, the 1.9 TDI and 2.0 TDI, and the later range offered a wide selection of petrol and diesel units, with a compressed natural gas version in certain countries. It introduced electro-mechanical steering, a first in its class and for Volkswagen, and the Wolfsburg plant stopped production at the end of April 2026.
