The Touareg 1.4T model is equipped with a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission, while the 2.0T model comes with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. The dual-clutch transmission, or DCT, differs from conventional automatic transmission systems as it combines features of both manual and automatic transmissions. In addition to offering the flexibility of a manual transmission and the comfort of an automatic transmission, it also provides uninterrupted power output. The Touareg's body dimensions are 4453mm in length, 1841mm in width, and 1632mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2680mm. The Touareg features front-wheel drive, with a front suspension type of MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear suspension type of multi-link independent suspension.
