Doha: Volkswagen Qatar announced the new Touareg will arrive in the showroom this December, the company said in a statement yesterday. 
Unveiled at the SUV world premiere in Beijing earlier this year, the new Touareg, has been redesigned to offer customers new front and rear designs, new technical features and a wide range of colours and interiors. 
The Touareg is one of the world‘s most successful premium-class SUVs. Within a decade, Volkswagen has sold around 720,000 units of the high-class sport utility vehicle; last year alone over 70,000 drivers chose a new Touareg, which combines the best of passenger car comforts and off-road worlds in one model.
The 2015-generation can be identified by the new front and rear designs and by its new colours. In terms of technology, all V6 and V8 models now come equipped with an automatic post-collision braking system (helps prevent a secondary collision in case of an accident), bi-xenon headlights and a coasting function.
Yan Lassade, Managing Director of Volkswagen Qatar said, “The new Touareg enjoys a refreshed exterior in addition to exciting new technical additions such as the Start-Stop 1.6 with neutral when rolling.” 
The front-end design of the Touareg was completely re-developed. Especially distinctive are the headlights which are now larger; moreover, bi-xenon headlights as standard and the newly designed LED daytime running lights, available from the SEL package onwards.
