CGI: 2011 Volkswagen Touareg
- First CGIs showing the 2011 Touareg
- The car is expected to be lighter than the current model
- It will also be cheaper

Anyway, there are still a lot of unclear things when talking about the future Touareg, with all kind of reports pointing to tens of modifications that might find a place on the upcoming SUV. That's why we're still waiting for an official press release issued by the German manufacturer that will surely put things straight in this matter.
