“Innovision Cockpit” as the centre. The interior designers have completely redesigned the vehicle interior of the Touareg and consistently customised it for the digital age. Wherever it makes sense, digital surfaces replace conventional displays and controls. The dominant centre of the vehicle interior is formed by the wide, exquisite dash panel with the optional integrated “Innovision Cockpit” – an alliance of the digital instruments (12-inch “Digital Cockpit”) and the infotainment system “Discover Premium” (with a 15-inch TFT touchscreen). It is the control centre of a new era – an interactive interface for the Touareg where the information and settings of all essential comfort, assist and infotainment systems converge in one matrix. Thanks to a separate eSIM (initially in 13 European countries), the new SUV is also "always on". The “Innovision Cockpit” is a departure from the conventional – never before has a Volkswagen interior of this type been digitalised and extensively linked to the vehicle functions and outside world to such an extent.
The highest level of comfort, quality and exclusivity. Regardless of how rough and demanding the onroad and offroad terrain of the new Touareg may sometimes be, the vehicle interior of the Volkswagen SUV always remains a luxurious comfort zone. The screens of the “Innovision Cockpit” with their glass covered surfaces, exquisite wood applications (porous real wood), vegetable tanned leathers as well as the aluminium and chrome details allow the extraordinarily high quality to be seen and felt. A narrow wing made of “curved beam wood” extends over the entire width of the dash panel in conjunction with the new “Atmosphere” trim line – a wood application curved as one part and made of ash that follows the shape of the dash panel. The individualisation of the interior is achieved with three trim lines: “Atmosphere”, “Elegance” and “R-Line”. “Atmosphere” is a new lounge-type world where wood and natural tones prevail. “Elegance” stands for a new, technical world dominated by metal and matching colours. In contrast, the “R-Line” has a sporty design.
New massage seats and variable rear seat system. The optional electrically adjustable front seats offer a new, pneumatic massage function – it is the first time they have been used in a Touareg. Eight programs can be chosen here. They are implemented pneumatically and the intensity of the massage functions can be continuously adjusted via individual air cushions. The length of the rear seat system can also be shifted by 160 mm to create more space in the rear. The angle adjustment of the rear seat backrest is another comfort feature (three-stage up to 21 degrees). The term "long-distance vehicle" gets a completely new quality with the Touareg and its seating system. For five persons to have adequate space for their luggage on long trips or on a short trip to the nearest airport, the storage volume of the new Touareg was increased by 113 litres to 810 litres compared with its predecessor.
Largest Volkswagen panoramic sliding roof. Natural light comes in through the largest panoramic sliding roof that Volkswagen has ever realised in the vehicle interior. The transparent roof section is 1,270 mm long and 825 mm wide (inner dimension). The front half of the roof can be continuously opened and electrically moved back by 495 mm and raised. An electrically activated cloth roller blind reduces the sun rays.
Ambient light in 30 colours. Night rides are now more pleasant thanks to a newly developed LED ambient light. Using the ambient light, the atmosphere on board the Touareg can also be personalised. Here, t30 light colours whose brightness can be continuously adjusted are available as an option. An overview of the ambient light zones:
