Is the Touran a 7-seater?
3 Answers
The Touran is available in 7-seater, 5-seater, and 6-seater configurations. It is an MPV model under SAIC Volkswagen. Taking the 2021 Touran as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4527mm, width 1829mm, height 1659mm, with a wheelbase of 2791mm and a curb weight of 1515kg. The 2021 Touran features a front MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear four-link independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 150PS, maximum torque of 250Nm, and maximum power of 110kW, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Yes, the Touran has a 7-seater version. I've driven it several times before, and the space layout is quite flexible. Although the third row is a bit narrow for adults, it's just right for kids. My family often travels with elderly and children, and the middle row can be adjusted back and forth, while the rear seats can also be folded down, making it no problem at all for luggage. The overall driving feel is stable, and the fuel consumption is not too high, making it quite practical for family outings.
From a design perspective, the Touran indeed offers a 7-seat configuration, typically arranged in a 2-3-2 layout, with convenient access to the third row. During my test drive, I noticed the seats can be fully flattened, creating an oversized luggage compartment that makes transporting large items effortless. Compared to other seven-seaters, it has light and agile steering, easy parking, and is well-suited for urban commuting.
