    The Volkswagen Touran minivan is a stable and pleasant to drive; their reactions are not the car of a high and heavy. TheVolkswagen Touran has a speed similar to that of a SEAT Altea XL and the Ford Focus S-Max, which are the best carriers from this point of view. Have the engine as gasoline and diesel with 140 hp, very good relationship between performance and consumption, noise and a somewhat higher in certain circumstances.

    Volkswagen is the first that can have an automatic parking system in line that is functionally different from that which has the Toyota Prius today. This device is standard equipment with the "Traveler" and "Highline". The range of engines for the Volkswagen Touran has two petrol and three diesel. The petrol is a 1.6 liter 102 hp and a 1.4 l TSI 140 hp.

    Volkswagen Touran

    In Diesel 1.9 liter TDI is a 90 or 105 hp and two variants of the 2.0 liter TDI, a 140 hp and 170 hp, which already carry other models of the Volkswagen group. It differs from the 140 hp variant that has a different turbocharger, a system of pump-injector with piezoelectric valves and maintenance-free particulate filter.

    Volkswagen Touran

    Except the two less powerful engines, all versions have six-speed manual transmission and can change gears dual clutch automatic (DSG). Since the spring of 2007 is the engine that debuted with the Golf GT, 1.4 l TSI 170 hp. Like the 1.4 TSI 140 hp, is because it has a turbocharger and a volumetric compressor. In theVolkswagen Touran 1.4 TSI 170 CV may only be chosen with automatic DSG. The only minivan similar power is the Renault Grand Scenic Turbo 165 hp. The Volkswagen Touran is faster and consumes less.

    Volkswagen Touran

    There is also a version CrossTouran. As the CrossPolo and the CrossGolf, has some ability to move off the road. In other markets, it also sells a version of the tour that can run on natural gas. It carries a 2.0 liter engine 109 hp that can run on petrol. It has two tanks; one can hold 18 kg of natural gas and another for 13 liters of gasoline. Total autonomy is 440 km.

    The 2007 Volkswagen Touran has some changes in the interior: there are a variety of different upholstery and dashboard trim can finish metal. The buttons to operate the browser and functions of the sound system are different.

    Volkswagen Touran

    It is not as comprehensive as other seven-seat people carriers. Front is no problem of space, even for tall occupants, because the seat can go very low and a good distance from the pedals.

    Volkswagen Touran

    In the second row of seats is a normal space: although many similar models are better in this regard can accommodate three adults of normal build. In the third row of seats can travel with a certain comfort children who do not need to carry child-seat and adults up to 1.70m tall. These seats are very close to the floor for more headroom to the roof - so that the occupants take knees high over the body.

    Volkswagen Touran

    Termination inside the Volkswagen Touran looks good. There are quality materials, beautiful and great touch, as the soft plastic that covers the top of the dashboard metaphor and decorative metal trim on the dashboard and doors.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The top of the doors is a hard plastic that mimics the dashboard, but that is of inferior quality. The bottom of the doors and dashboard, and the transmission tunnel is a hard plastic that is not showy and not a particularly nice touch.

    Volkswagen Touran

    In general, the adjustment of different parts is good, although not as careful as in Golf and a Passat. Have some quality details such as upholstery or slip bottom holes of some slides, the door panels upholstered, reading lights front and rear mirrors and courtesy lighting.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The front seats of the versions Traveler Edition and are comfortable. Good grip back and legs, but is missing something more lateral. The seats of the versions Highline-type sports are better, better and holding the body.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The driver's seat may be too low for what is normal for a car of this nature, in this way, the driving position is very similar to a car. It is not recommended for people often take the seat in this position, and that remains visible and although the steering wheel is adjustable for height and depth, is slightly high. The passenger seat can be converted into table.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The second-row seats are individual. The center seat is narrower, so it is not valid for a placed child seat. This seat can be converted into table.
    Volkswagen Touran

    The three seats in the second row are longitudinal adjustment of 15 cm and the inclination of the backrest. Can be drawn individually is an uncomfortable because the seats are very heavy (that happens to a greater or lesser extent on other carriers where the seats can be extract, in a Renault Scenic). If you remove the center seat, the two sides can come outside (which increases security, go to the occupants of the gates further apart).

    Volkswagen Touran

    There are lots of places to store objects: triple compartment in the ceiling, two drawers under the front seat, compartment with lid on top of the center console, door pockets with bottle in pockets on the back of the front seats, chilled glove box. Most of them are fund-slip plastic or upholstered. Compartments of the roof closed and the center console lid is opened with shock.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The trunk is very large (695 l) in five-seat configuration. With seven seats was practically annulled, measured only 125 l. There is a compartment under the floor, where they kept the third row head restraints, when not in use. At the gate there is a hole to place an emergency triangle, there is a specific site for the second (in the luggage compartment can not be, when the restraints are being saved).

    Volkswagen Touran

    Traveler and Highline versions have the standard trip computer 'FIS' Edition in versions is an option tied to the browser. Through this device you can program various functions of the vehicle, such as total or selective opening of the doors, automatic closing doors and moving programming while maintaining the lights turned on when you close or open the vehicle ( low light and outside).

    Volkswagen Touran

    The Volkswagen Touran is a car that has an excellent stability; it is very smooth and pleasant to drive. For those who greatly appreciates the stability and reactions resemble those of a more normal than to the tourism of a minivan, the Volkswagen Touran seems more advisable for the Renault Scenic or Citroen C4 Picasso.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The Volkswagen Touran has two types of suspension, for versions Edition and Traveler, and other sports for the Highline version (which is also available optionally for all other versions). With the suspension of series, which is pulling a paperback, theVolkswagen Touran is a comfortable car to travel (although not as much as a Citroen C4 Picasso) because it absorbs bumps well. This suspension has a flexibility that allows the body has an ample swinging motion (not much). The Volkswagen Touransports suspension is harder. Gives a great stability, greatly reduces the movements of the body, but it is slightly uncomfortable and dry (especially for rear occupants).

    Volkswagen Touran

    The diesel engine 140 hp Volkswagen Touran moves very quickly, is sufficient in almost all circumstances. It has a strong response from 1900 rpm and up to speed very quickly. Under this scheme, it lacks some strength to get out quickly from standing without slipping the clutch a lot.

    Volkswagen Touran

    In a normal driving consumes almost 1 l/100 km over a Golf on the same engine. Driving in a smooth manner that does not mean going slow, can consume less than 7.0 l/100 km. In city traffic, or being abrupt with the throttle, it's hard to fall from 9.0 l/100 km.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The engine noise is heard clearly in the interior, especially when accelerating in depth. You hear over the engine in a Golf and a lot more than the equivalent in a Skoda Scout. From a high speed, wind noise has seemed more annoying than the engine.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The diesel version of 105 hp is a little noisier, vibrates a little more and does not rise as fast laps of the 140 hp version. On the other hand, it is something slightly more strength to go from a standstill.

    Volkswagen Touran

    Regarding the diesel version of 140 hp to 170 hp engine has a much stronger response from 1900 rpm and a high acceleration capacity, and it is slightly less noisy. Similar between models, has good performance and a slightly higher consumption.

    Volkswagen Touran

    TSI petrol engine of 140 hp delivers results from the viewpoint of the response, the capacity of acceleration and smoothness. Its consumption is normal.

    Volkswagen Touran

    It is nice to use one engine as it often does not require using the gearstick. In town you can move with the engine revolution and gain little need to reduce speed without a gear.

    Volkswagen Touran

    Consumption can be reduced but if it does, it must be driving to be very mild. In and around town, it is difficult to make you spend less than 9.0 l/100 km, even if there is little traffic. Driving in the normal way (without accelerating or looking for a minimum consumption) consumption is around 10 l/100 km (more than that below this value).

    Volkswagen Touran

    With this engine, is a quiet car, more for the isolation of the motor itself. The noise it makes to implement it is more like a diesel engine than a gasoline (only during the time of starting). Once in place, and with the window down, stands out perfectly when the compressor goes into operation, when it stops and makes the sound while acting. He who gives the turbo is not as obvious.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The 1.4 liter TSI engine has dual compressor, one volume and type of turbo, arranged in series. The idea is to use a large turbocharger, which can give a very high pressure, volume and a compressor that generates the pressure required when the supercharger can not give. The size of the turbocharger has to be a compromise: not too big not to slow response, not too small for you to generate the proper pressure.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The engine of the Volkswagen is a system similar to the Lancia Delta S4 1985. A large turbocharger generates a very high pressure (which is why a 1.4 l engine achieves 170 hp) and a volumetric compressor gives the necessary pressure when the turbo still does not reach the appropriate regime.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The compressors are driven by the crankshaft via a pulley and a clutch electromagnetic tour five times faster than the engine. It can generate up to maximum pressure of 2.8 bar absolute from a little higher than idle.

    Volkswagen Touran

    It operates continuously up to 2,400 rpm from a level of charge. From there, it is disengaged from the pulley, if engine load is high. In that case, you can add to the pressure given by the turbocharger, where the engine does not reach 3500 rpm. From that system until it can reach 7000 rpm the engine, the compressor volume is always off. When the compressor is disconnected, the air passes through an alternative driver to dodge.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The maximum feed pressure is achieved at 1,500 rpm, when the two compressors work together and have approximately the same compression ratio (1.53 to 1). Under these conditions, the absolute maximum supply pressure is 2.5 bar.

    Volkswagen Touran

    One of the most interesting facets of this engine is that its compression ratio is high, which is beneficial to engine operation at part load (one of the drawbacks of the engines with a lot of overfeeding). In part due to the direct injection (gasoline cools the camera because it evaporates within it), the compression ratio is 10 to 1.

    Volkswagen Touran

    Volkswagen believes that the 1.4 liter engine is equivalent to a 2.3 liter naturally aspirated engine displacement. Their values of maximum power and maximum torque (170 hp and 240 Nm, respectively) are similar to those of Audi's V6 engine of 2.4 liter (170 hp and 230 Nm).

    Volkswagen Touran

    It is notable that the maximum torque is maintained almost constant between 1750 and 4500 rpm. I.e. the engine can give the maximum torque for 39 percent of the operating range of the engine.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The average effective pressure is extremely high: 21.7 bar, at the same level as that of diesel engines as the BMW 2.0-liter 163 hp (the 320D), which reaches 21.4.

    Volkswagen Touran

    The block party has is a Volkswagen EA 111, which gives it 90 hp 1.4 liter 115 with 1.6 Is a block of iron with 82 mm distance between centers of cylinders, with measures 76.5 x 75.6, giving 1390 cm ³. According to Volkswagen, this block allows maximum pressure in the chamber up to 120 bar.
