What is the wheelbase of the Volkswagen Touran?
2 Answers
The wheelbase of the Volkswagen Touran is 2791 millimeters, and the interior space of this car is relatively large. Wheelbase refers to the distance from the center of the front axle to the center of the rear axle of a vehicle, measured between two vertical lines passing through the centers of adjacent wheels on the same side of the vehicle and perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane. For locomotives or other carriages, wheelbase is further divided into fixed wheelbase, bogie wheelbase, and total wheelbase, with the total wheelbase being a key parameter affecting the turntable length of a train. The Touran is a new car born in 2003 on the Volkswagen PQ35 platform. Upon its entry into the domestic market, Shanghai Volkswagen introduced a new concept for it as an MPS (Multi-Purpose-Sports) vehicle.
The wheelbase of the Volkswagen Touran is 2791mm, and I remember this number because I've driven this car as a family daily driver. The space is quite spacious, and three people can sit in the back without feeling cramped, especially when taking kids out—they have plenty of room to move around comfortably. However, you need to be careful when turning because the longer wheelbase makes the rear end more prone to scraping against the curb. You also need to leave more space when parking. Overall, it feels stable at high speeds and doesn't tend to drift. I think the wheelbase has a significant impact, especially since MPV designs prioritize practicality.
