2007 Volkswagen Touareg Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2006 | 4dr SUV 310-horsepower 4.2L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
The front seats in a Touareg are on par with the best seats from Mercedes and BMW. My back hates driving long distances, but you can drive this car till your eyes are crossed. Your butt and back never tire from these seats. see full Volkswagen Touareg review |

Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2006 | 2dr Convertible 115-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
The rear seat is usable only as a package tray, though it does serve to hold a second carry-on bag. see full Mini Convertible review |
