The VW of today is completely different from the VW you might know. We have
a wide range of models, including world-class sedans, SUVs, and a minivan, each
one more stylish and refined than ever before. And even though we’ve grown, rest
assured that every VW still provides the exhilarating driving experience that has always
been at the core of our reputation. Some things will never change.

Yes, that’s recycled paper you’re holding.

Volkswagen DVD navigation depends on the signals from the worldwide Global Positioning Satellite network. The vehicle’s electrical system, and existing wireless and satellite technologies, must be
available and operating properly for the system to function. The system is designed to provide you with suggested routes to location addresses, destinations, and other points of interest. Changes in street names, construction zones, traffic flow, points of interest, and other road system changes are beyond the control of Volkswagen of America, Inc. Complete
detailed mapping of lanes, roads, streets, toll roads, highways, etc., is not possible, therefore you may encounter discrepancies between the mapping and your actual location. Please rely on your individual judgment in determining whether or not to follow a suggested navigation route. Periodically, the mapping is updated and a new DVD will be required in order
to maintain the latest navigation information available to us. These will be available for purchase from time to time at additional cost. Summer performance tires are designed for optimum performance and handling in warm climates. They are not suitable for cold, snowy or icy weather conditions. If you drive under those circumstances, you should equip your
vehicle with all-season or winter tires, which offer better traction under those conditions. We suggest you use the recommended winter or all-season tires specified for your car or its equivalent. These high-performance tires also have a lower aspect ratio that aids performance and handling; however, in order to avoid tire, rim or vehicle damage, it is important
that the inflation pressure is regularly checked and maintained at recommended levels. Please also remember in making your selection that, while the tires deliver responsive handling, they may ride less comfortably and make more noise than other choices. Finally, these tires may wear more quickly than other choices. For further information on all these
topics, please consult the owner’s manual, your local dealer or call 1-800-DRIVE-VW. For further information regarding any Volkswagen model, please call 1-800-DRIVE-VW, or just look us up at vw.com. VW11TSBUS

Let’s talk Volkswagen.

What makes a Volkswagen a Volkswagen. See those little icons

over there? They represent the big ideas that every Volkswagen
must live up to in order to earn the VW badge. No matter how
large or small, all models are a combination of these essential
ideas. Find an icon and you’ll discover something special about
a Volkswagen. It’s really that simple.

Das Auto

A VW doesn’t just start off as sheet metal and engine
parts. It begins as an idea. A belief that getting the little
things right is a big thing. A viewpoint that asks why
dumb it down when you can smart it up. An attitude that
says to make things perfect, you have to make them
perfectly. Some would call these just a bunch of good ideas.
We call them Das Auto.

The all-new 2011 Touareg

Maybe you want a premium driving experience with
top-of-the-line amenities. It could be that you’re in the market
for a distinctive ride that sets you apart from the rest. Or
perhaps you’re looking for a true SUV. Enter the all-new
Touareg. Completely redesigned from the ground up, it
combines the best of German engineering with the ultimate
refinements, such as a state-of the-art 3D navigation
system and dual climate control, all within a sophisticated
and assertive SUV design. With a range of powerful
models, including the world’s first supercharged hybrid,
a TDI® Clean Diesel, and a VR6, the Touareg is more than
just an SUV. It’s the only SUV that’s designed to deliver
a truly first-class ride, with the unique soul of a Volkswagen.

But sometimes you’re too cold and your passenger is too warm. Or vice
versa. Which is precisely why we include dual-zone climate control
on every 2011 Touareg. And heated seats in the front and optionally in
back. Because having it your way is so much easier than compromising.

Make yourself comfortable.

If you’re wondering which features are available in the all-new Touareg,
the answer is: every premium feature we offer. From the optional Vienna leather
seating surfaces in Black Anthracite, Cornsilk Beige, or the brand-new Saddle
Brown to the Burr Walnut wood interior accents, every detail has been fussed
over. To make cold days more comfortable, we gave the hybrid model a heated
steering wheel wrapped in leather and then made it power-adjustable so you
can position it exactly where it fits you best. For those days when a little
customization is in order, we also included rear reclining seats that slide forward
and back so your passengers can stretch out, or you can put a little extra
cargo in back. And when you climb in the cockpit, you and your front passenger
can fine-tune the available 12-way power front seats exactly the way you like
them, and then have the option of letting Touareg remember the settings for
you. Automatically. So you can concentrate on the joys of driving a premium
SUV and leave the rest to us.

included a rearview camera built into the navigation system in the all-new
Touareg. Which means the screen displays a real-time image of what’s behind
you to help keep you from backing up into anything unexpected. Such as fire
hydrants. And recycling bins. And the garage door.

Real life. In real-time.

The all-new Touareg comes with our top-of-the-line navigation system complete with 3D
landmarks. So the world that you see ahead of you is replicated right in the full-color display
in the dash, making it even easier to navigate your way to your next destination. In fact,
turn-by-turn directions are also displayed in color in the trip computer, right in your line of sight
behind the steering wheel, so you don’t have to take your eyes off the road to find your way.
On the all-new, supercharged hybrid Touareg, the navigation system also comes with an onscreen
display of hybrid system information that allows you to monitor your energy usage, driving
range, and battery percentage. So you can help maximize your power and minimize your
trips to the gas station.

The second you feel the doors thunk solidly into place, you’ll know that the all-new Touareg was designed for
sound. Thanks to the available 620-watt Dynaudio® sound system with 10 premium speakers and DSP® (Digital Signal
Processing) technology, road noise will disappear as you spend mile after mile listening to music loaded on your
iPod or on the internal 60GB hard drive. Not to mention the more than 130 channels available on your SIRIUS
Satellite Radio, which comes with a three-month trial subscription. If the phone rings, the music will automatically
pause as you answer the call using the built-in Bluetooth with voice command and phonebook download, which you
can access right from the multi-function steering wheel. And if you get caught up in the music, just look down at the
trip computer, stashed between the tach and the speedometer, to see how long you can go until your next fill up. It’ll
even tell you the temperature outside, so you can make sure to grab your coat from the backseat on your way out.
