Cayenne and Touareg share the same three major components, as both vehicles are built on Volkswagen Group's latest MLB Evo platform, featuring identical engines, transmissions, and chassis. In terms of power, both models are equipped with a 3.0T turbocharged engine delivering a maximum power of 250kW and peak torque of 450Nm. The transmission system pairs an 8-speed automatic manual gearbox with the engine. Regarding the chassis, both adopt a front-four-wheel-drive layout with permanent all-wheel drive. They feature multi-link independent suspensions at both front and rear. The Touareg utilizes a Torsen differential for its central differential structure, while the Cayenne employs a multi-plate clutch. The Touareg is positioned as a balanced offering, with Volkswagen intending it to lead as the brand's premium SUV flagship.
