Class Compact MPV

Body style 5-door MPV

Layout Front-engine, front-wheel-drive

The Volkswagen Touran (Typ 1T) is a compact MPV based on a vertically stretched fifth
generation Volkswagen Golf Mk5, and sold in Europe and other select markets. It was
launched in 2003 to fill a gap in Volkswagen's model lineup, below the Sharanlarge MPV. The
vehicle is delivered in five- or seven-seat versions. It can be considered an extended version of
the Golf Plus, since their front ends are similar in size, while the Touran's rear overhang is
200 mm (7.87 in) longer (and therefore a seven-seater, while the Golf Plus is a five-seater). In
some regions, such as Japan, the car is called Golf Touran.
The name 'Touran' derives from the combination of 'Tour' and 'Sharan', the bigger MPV by VW.
Despite the similarity of their names, the Touran is not related to the North American-
market Volkswagen Routan.

Pre-facelift Volkswagen Touran

The Touran, launched in 2003, is the first Volkswagen MPV based on a Golf platform. It joined
Volkswagen's existing MPV line-up that included the Sharan and Caravelle (VW Bus). [7]
The Touran introduced electro-mechanical steering, a first in its class and for Volkswagen. It is
able to vary the weight of the steering depending on the road speed. Due to the lack of energy
consumption in idle it also improves the overall efficiency of the vehicle. The Touran was the
first vehicle to use Volkswagen's 2.0 TDI engine.
The engines available at the launch included a 1.6 FSI and two diesel engines, the 1.9 TDI with
74 kW (101 PS; 99 hp) and the 2.0 TDI 103 kW (140 PS; 138 hp). The engines are EURO 4
compliant, except the 1.9 TDi when paired with the DSG (direct shift gearbox). The Touran
launched with a six-speed manual gearbox as standard and a DSG for the 1.9 TDI Engines.
[citation needed]

Safety[edit]
The initial test of the Touran in 2003 resulted in a four-star rating for adult protection.
[8]
Volkswagen made slight changes to the Touran from November 2003, adding "an intelligent
reminder for the driver and front passenger to buckle their seat belts." This allowed the Touran
to be retested the same year, scoring a single extra point and so giving the car a five-star
rating for adult protection:

Facelift (2006)[edit]

2006 facelift

2006 facelift

The Touran received a facelift for the October 2006 Paris Motor Show.
Park Assist[edit]
The 2007 model year Touran was the first production vehicle in the Volkswagen Group to be
released with the new Park Assist technology. Park Assist helps the driver parallel park the
vehicle. Firstly, after having activated the feature and whilst travelling up to 30 km/h Park Assist
uses sensors to attempt to identify a suitable parking spot (defined as 0.8 metres longer than
the length of the vehicle). The driver then stops ahead of the parking spot, releases the
steering wheel, but continues working the gears, accelerator and brake pedal as advised by
the display panels, as the Park Assist controls the steering to park the vehicle.
CrossTouran[edit]
At the December 2006 Bologna Motor Show, Volkswagen released the third Cross vehicle
designed by Volkswagen Individual GmbH.
The CrossTouran is distinguished from a standard Touran by its 17-inch alloy wheels,
redesigned plastic guards which ape a crossover vehicle, and a 15 mm (0.59 in) higher
suspension/chassis setup that is optional for standard Tourans in Europe.
All CrossTouran engines are EU4 compliant.

Second facelift (20102015)[edit]

2010 facelift

2010 facelift

In August 2010 the Touran was updated to the newer Golf VI platform (PQ35). This included as
new features compared to the previous facelift the option for DCC (Volkswagen's adaptive
suspension system), Light-Assist for Xenon Headlights, an improved Park-Assist System that
can also handle perpendicular park positions and updated infotainment systems. The
aerodynamics of the car were also improved, the Cw improved from 0,31-0,32 to 0,29.
At the end of 2010 Shanghai Volkswagen Automotive released the new Touran in China.
[10]
Though its front was updated to the German style, the tail keeps the design of the phase II
model. The electronic systems of this domestically produced car were upgraded as its relative
in Europe. A 1.4 TSI which can output 93 kW was added to the new model.
New engines were available following the downsizing trend, a 1.2 with 77 kW (105 PS; 103 hp)
and a new 1.6 Common Rail TDI with 66 kW (90 PS; 89 hp) or 77 kW (105 PS; 103 hp).[11] They
replaced the 1.6 and 1.9 TDI from the previous model. The 1.2, 77 kW (105 PS; 103 hp) and
1.6 TDI 77 kW (105 PS; 103 hp) were also available as BlueMotion, Volkswagen's low fuel
consumption vehicle program.
In 2012, the 125 kW (170 PS; 168 hp) engine was replaced with the 130 kW (177 PS; 174 hp).
Engines[edit]
The Touran is available with petrol, diesel and compressed natural gas (CNG) engines.

The diesel models of the Touran offer better fuel economy. Given the proper conditions, it is
possible to achieve over 60 mpg-imp (4.7 L/100 km; 50 mpg-US) in a diesel Touran.[12]The car is
delivered with a five- (1.6 only) and six-speed manual transmissions, Tiptronic six-speed
automatic transmission (in 1.6, 1.6 FSI and 2.0 FSI (2003-2006 only)) or the DSG twin-clutch
automatic transmission; the 1.4 TSI, the 1.6 FSI from 2003 to 2006, the 1.9 TDI from 2003 to
2008 and the 2.0 TDI uses the six-speed version, and the 1.9 TDI since the middle of 2008 use
the seven-speed dry-clutch version.
As for the 2010 model, an updated version of the 2.0 TDI engine was launched with common
rail technology. The engine was introduced in the Volkswagen Passat in the 2008-models.
Touran Hy Motion and Hybrid[edit]

Touran HY MOTION Hydrogen Study

The Touran Hy Motion is Volkswagen's Hydrogen Development concept. It has a nickel-metal

hydride battery which produces 80 kW (107 hp), it does the 0100 km/h (0-62 mph) sprint in 14
seconds and has a top speed of 140 km/h (87.0 mph).
In 2008, Shanghai-Volkswagen with Tongji University had released a Touran Hybrid as part of
the lead up to the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.
A prototype of the Touran Hybrid was shown with a 20 kW (27 hp) electric motor in conjunction
with a 110 kW (148 hp) petrol engine, the transmission will most likely be Volkswagen's Direct-
Shift Gearbox (DSG).
Awards and safety[edit]

The Touran won What Car?'s 2005 Compact Van of the Year award.

The Touran scored a maximum 5-star EuroNCAP crash safety rating.
