If you’re looking for a substantial midsize SUV that can deliver luxury, capability and power, the 2016 VW Touareg tops a very short list. Sure, its nearly $45,000 starting price puts it close to BMW and Lexus territory, but this is one VW worth the extra cost.
If you need seating for seven, ample cargo space or to tow more than 7,700 pounds, it sounds like a full-size Chevrolet Tahoe may be a better choice. The Jeep Grand Cherokee has a lower base price, but is equally adept in the areas of performance, comfort and off-road ability.
