If an on-road dynamic is more important than off-road capability, today’s Volkswagen Touareg is one of the better choices in the marketplace. A rigid structure and all-independent suspension provide the composure, while a trio of available drivetrains provides both fun and functionality.
If, in selecting an SUV or crossover, your emphasis is on cubic volume or the ability to clear fallen timber, this isn’t your cup of SUV. For you, there’s a Jeep Grand Cherokee or 4WD Chevy Tahoe. The Touareg takes proper care of passengers and cargo, but not excessive care.
