There are some differences in configuration and wheel hubs. The specific differences between the Touareg 4WD Comfort Edition and Luxury Edition are as follows: Differences in configuration: The Luxury Edition includes features such as knee airbags, front parking sensors, automatic parking, electric panoramic sunroof, leather seats, electric front seat adjustment, front seat heating, and electric folding mirrors, which are not available in the Comfort Edition. The Touareg 4WD Comfort Edition has rear parking sensors, while the Luxury Edition has both front and rear parking sensors. Differences in wheel hubs: The Luxury Edition is equipped with larger-inch wheel hubs, while the Comfort Edition has smaller-inch wheel hubs.
I recently purchased the four-wheel-drive version of the Touareg. As a family user with two kids, I experienced the differences between the Comfort and Luxury trims. The focus is on practical features: the Luxury trim comes with a panoramic sunroof, providing better interior lighting; heated second-row seats, keeping the kids warm in winter; and a power tailgate, making it easier to load the stroller—none of which are available in the Comfort trim. Safety-wise, the Luxury trim adds blind-spot monitoring and automatic emergency braking, offering more peace of mind when traveling on highways with the whole family. For the interior, the Luxury trim features leather seats that are easy to clean, while the Comfort trim has fabric seats, which my kids often dirty and are harder to maintain. The infotainment system in the Luxury trim includes a larger screen with navigation, whereas the Comfort trim has a smaller screen and relies on smartphones. The price difference is tens of thousands, but if, like me, you use the car daily for school runs and family trips, the extra cost for improved comfort and safety is worth it.
