VW Touareg 4.2 r-line

Large sport for 2.500,000 rubles
As can be seen from the name of the configuration, this VW Touareg goes with a 4.2-liter engine that is refueling gasoline. There are 8 cylinders inside. The traction point is entirely 440 units, and horsepower 350. This was reflected on the dynamics of only 7.5 seconds is required to achieve 100 km/h. Acceleration resembles a rumble of an airplane on take -off. Such great opportunities are reflected in fuel consumption. On average, trips around Moscow result in 20 liters per hundred kilometers. In the mode, a pensioner at the wheel can be seen 18 liters.
The enraged Touareg 4.2 on the snowy and ice road holds well. Huge 20-inch wheels go like rails. A big plus of the Tuareg (and not only 4.2-liter) in the presence of air suspension. With the help of a round hand, you can turn 3 modes: up, Auto level, down. All these procedures should occur in place, and not in motion. For a complete effect, the suspension has stiffness modes: Sport, Auto, Comfort. In the sports mode, Touareg 4.2 flies non -standard holes of our roads at all not noticeable. I am not saying that the suspension is cotton. It is just perfectly tuned to our roads, unlike other SUVs, on which it is better not to travel to the streets of Moscow in sport mode. Auto in Touareg 4.2 suspension mode. The last type of settings of Comfort shock absorbers.
The cabin Touareg 4.2 is made from the heart. The front panel is sewn with leather, like other elements. Single leather chairs. Gray-black marble panels merge with the dark color of torpedoes, which is decorated with a TV with a function of navigation, radio, television, MP3, DVD, and bluetooth. It is a pity that the card is not in Russian. And that the antenna for taking a TV signal works terribly (or is it not at all?). But the radio sounds like CD. Following the example of Nissan and Infiniti, a video camera is set in this Tuareg along with parking sensors.
