Volkswagen Touareg Brand Reputation: Cons

2011 4dr SUV turbocharged 225hp 3.0L V6 Diesel
8-speed shiftable automatic AWD
Given the current Dieselgate situation and how it is being handled both by VW and CARB/EPA, not likely to buy another VW. Most likely switch to another brand as long as they sell diesel vehicles. see full Volkswagen Touareg review
