What Kind of Engines Does it Have?

The Volkswagen Touareg has been offered with different types of engines. These include both petrol (gasoline) and diesel engines.

Petrol Engines: Some Touareg models have petrol engines with 6, 8, or even 12 cylinders. A cylinder is a part of the engine where fuel is burned to create power. More cylinders usually mean more power.
Diesel Engines: Other Touareg models use diesel engines. These have come with 5, 6, or 10 cylinders. Diesel engines are often known for being fuel-efficient and having a lot of pulling power.
