With the 2014 Volkswagen Touareg TDI you are getting something surprisingly special. This Crossover SUV looks surprisingly simple on the outside but under the hood, the Touareg is hiding a weapon. With a highway range of over 600 miles you can cruise comfortably. The Touareg is near Porsche Cayenne in terms of performance and luxury without the badges. The 2014 Touareg Diesel has a base price of $51,610 and the R-Line model reviewed here costs $58,190.

It should come as no surprise that Volkswagen is serious when it comes to bringing as many diesel powered vehicles to the U.S. as possible. And the biggest diesel of the lot is the 2014 Touareg TDI crossover SUV. When we are dealing with the Touareg we are looking at a vehicle that is handsome yet subtly so. With the R-Line model tested here, there are a few parts that kick things up a notch. Up front there is a more aggressive under spoiler, big 20-inch wheels, a sporty suspension, LED taillights, and revised rear bumper.

Under the hood lives the heart of this diesel SUV. The 3.0 liter turbo diesel V-6 engine is good for 240 horsepower and 406 lb-ft. of torque. This same engine is featured in the Audi Q5 diesel and the Porsche Cayenne Diesel so you can expect the same kind of performance figures. The transmission is an 8-speed automatic. Fuel economy is 20 MPG in the city and 29 MPG on the highway.
