when Vauxhall launched the seven-seat Zafi- ra.
T Suddenly Volkswagen’s five-seat offering
looked a little inadequate and the designers went back to the drawing board. Fast forward four years later and Volkswagen at last has an entrant in the lucrative mini-MPV sector in the rather generic shape of the Touran. Why the wait? Surely it does not take four
years to bring a car from the design stage to production, even one as well thought out as the Touran? Those intervening years saw a huge growth in the mini-MPV sector, with Citroen, Vauxhall and Renault largely carving the spoils up between them, Volkswagen and, surprisingly, Ford having nothing to offer. There is, however, a sound technical reason why Volkswagen is so late to the party. With an entirely new platform designed for
the 2004 model year Volkswagen Golf, the top brass in Wolfsburg felt it was not cost effective to build a stopgap mini-MPV based on the old Golf chassis. Instead, they reasoned, it was better to bide their time until this superior set of running gear was available. And available it is, as we have seen in the new Audi A3. The Touran is the second car in the VW Group to adopt the chassis that adopts a sophisticated independent rear suspension system said to offer superior comfort and better handling, minimising the lurching body roll that can afflict some mini-MPVs. Priced from around £14,500, the Touran
campaigns in the upper sector of the mini- MPV market, unsurprising given its evidently superior fit and finish. When Vauxhall and Citroen are putting a lick on everyone sales- wise, there has to be a niche for something with a decently screwed together interior.
Slip inside and the Touran has the
same quiet feelgood factor of all con temporary Volkswagen products
Four engines are available. The first is the
100 b.h.p. 1.6-litre petrol unit that represents the entry-level option. A 115 b.h.p. direct- injection 1.6-litre FSI engine represents the rather modest pinnacle of the petrol-powered bunch although many buyers will be tempted by the broadly similarly priced TDi 100 diesel engine. Offering a decent slug of mid-range power, 159g/km CO2 emissions and fuel econo my that nudges 48 m.p.g., this is likely to be the favourite of private and corporate buyers alike. Should you be tempted by a little more
clout when you acquaint pedal with metal, Volkswagen can offer an all-new TDI 136 2.0- litre turbo-diesel. I t is certainly a good deal quicker than the 100 b.h.p. engine, reaching 60 m.p.h. in 10.4 seconds, but it retails at around £3,000 more which is a lot of money in this price-sensitive market sector. Slip inside and it has the same quiet feelgo
od factor of all contemporary Volkswagen products. The build quality is superb and the ergonomics first-rate. But what of the seats? You cannot bring a
mini-MPV to market these days without hav ing some sort of new seating stunt: The Touran has more than one up its sleeve, offer ing the most practical interior seen since the, launch of the groundbreaking Zafira.’ „/ . - Available in standard five-seat or seven-seat
guise (although you will need £500 for the extra pair of pews), the Touran’s seating sys tem is certainly flexible. The rearmost pair of seats; while only really suitable for kiddies, can fold flat into the floor which means that for most of the time you will have an easily acces sible and spacious luggage bay. You can even fold the middle seat of . the middle row, making a four-seater that can transport long items like skis with supreme ease. All three of the middle seats slide backwards and forwards on separ rate runners. With 39 separate storage areas around'the cabin, you may need
to.make a mental checklist of what you left where.,.....
