Volkswagen Touran 1.5 TSI EVO R-Line 5dr DSG Review

The model
Read full Volkswagen Touran reviewThe Volkswagen Touran might not seem as desirable as a seven-seat SUV, but it remains roomy, practical and very well built. It’s more refined than its van-based rivals and better to drive than a bulkier SUV. The 1.5 TSI 150 petrol provides good performance balanced with reasonable running costs.
The trim
See full equipmentThe most expensive and least recommendable trim; you pay a lot of money over the SEL for mainly sportier looks and bigger 18in alloy wheels.
The engine
See full engine specsThis 148bhp 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine is the pick of the range, offering plenty of performance for a lower price than the 2.0 TDI 150 diesel. It'll revs freely and hits 0-62mph in 8.9sec and officially returns over 40mpg.
