I remember studying the data of the Volkswagen Touran before. The official ground clearance of this car is about 100mm when fully loaded. To be honest, this height isn't particularly outstanding among MPVs. I always have to be extra careful not to scrape the chassis when driving over bumpy village roads. Last time I went camping in a friend's car, the bottom got scraped when going over a small dirt slope with the trunk fully loaded with camping gear. If you frequently drive on rough roads, it's advisable to opt for the factory-installed underbody protection or switch to thicker tires to improve clearance, but it still can't be used like an SUV. It's completely sufficient for ordinary city driving, but you still need to slow down when encountering high speed bumps or steep slopes.
