JE Design's new tuning program for the updated
2007 VW Touareg offers considerable power boost for the
SUV's diesel engine, as well as a new body kit. The latter consists of a new front spoiler with cartridges for double headlights consisting of fog lamps and upper beam headlights, a pair of side sills with an air inlet and a rear apron attachment, also available with
Park Distance Control system.
The engine upgrade increases
Touareg's 2.5 I TDI oil-burner's maximum power output from 174 bhp to more impressive 206 bhp, boosting its peak torque to mighty 460 Nm. More powerful
VW Touareg V10 5.0 TDI's maximum available power has also been increased from 313 bhp to 352 bhp, while its peak torque skyrocketed to from 750 Nm to 855 Nm. The mid-range 3.0 V6 TDI has also received its dose of JE Design's steroids, growing from 225 bhp to 285 bhp and from 500 Nm to 550 Nm.
The new
Volkswagen Touareg may also be equipped with a new set of 84 mm stainless steel twin tailpipes,
AZEV alloys in the size 10 x 22" ET 50 fitted with 295/30 R 22 tires, and either a height-adjustable
Variant 3 KW coilover suspension from stainless steel with adjustable rebound and pressure damping, or an electronic suspension lowering module, the former capable of lowering the SUV by some 30 to 75 mm and the latter -- by about 35 mm.
There is still no info on price and availability of the kits.
