New Touareg receives five-star top rating in Euro NCAP

The Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme) has awarded the new luxury Volkswagen Touareg the maximum rating possible of five stars. In the eyes of the independent crash test experts, the SUV performed perfectly in all the categories.

  • The Touareg is one of Europe's safest cars

    The new Touareg is considered to be a particularly safe choice within its vehicle category, which is the main reason as to its five-star rating which was received during the demanding tests from the European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP).
    One of the most impressive features that the new Touareg has to offer is its comprehensive safety package consisting of an optimised body structure, a belt, seat, and airbag network, and innovative assist systems.
    The SUV scored extremely good results in all four individual Euro NCAP categories. In the 'Adult Occupant Safety' category, the vehicle scores 89% of the maximum mark. The new Touareg also scores 86% for 'Child Occupant Safety', 81% in the 'Safety Assist' category and 72% in the 'Vulnerable Road Users'.

  • Important Benchmark for Vehicle Safety in Europe

    For the last 20 years, Euro NCAP has always been the benchmark for the safety level of new vehicles in Europe. Over the past few years, the test programme's criteria have become increasingly strict and currently includes elements, such a different collisions scenarios (including front - end collisions with an aluminium barrier at 64 km/h and a 40% overlap, side impact at 50 km/h into the vehicles side structure, bollard side impact at 32 km/h) and more demands in terms of standard driver assist systems. 

  • Touareg Continues on SUV's path to sucess

    Following the Touareg's launch in Spring 2018, it has become the new flagship of the Volkswagen brand, characterised by not just its safety features, but also by the fusion of assist, comfort, lighting and infotainment systems. Consequently, the Touareg launches with its widest range of assist, driving dynamics and comfort systems that has ever been integrated in a Volkswagen.

    This includes technology such as Night Vision (detects people and animals in the dark using a thermal imaging camera), Traffic Jam and Roadwork Lane Assist (assisted steering and lane departure warning up to 60 km/h, acceleration and braking) Front Cross Traffic Assist (responds to traffic crossing in front of the Touareg) a new roll stabilisation system with electromechanically controlled anti-roll bars, I.Q. Light - LED Matrix headlights (interactive dipped beams and main beams controlled by a camera) and a head-up display projected directly onto the windscreen (windshield head-up display).
