Volkswagen Touareg North Sails ( 2009 )
At the 2008 Paris Motor Show, Volkswagen is presenting a special model of the Touareg whose design was customized for yachting enthusiasts: the Volkswagen Touareg North Sails. The special edition designed in cooperation with renowned sailing outfitter North Sails impresses with numerous exterior and interior elements that reflect the style of high-end yachts. The new special model is already being launched this fall of 2008 and will be available with all six, eight and ten cylinder engines (176 kW / 240 PS to 257 kW / 350 PS).
Interior design: high-end and nautical in style
The most remarkable features of the new Volkswagen Touareg North Sails are to be found in the passenger compartment. Stylistically, the interior is a rather perfect match to the standard exterior car color «Campanella white» or the optional «Shadow blue metallic». In addition, the following car colors also provide a harmonious match: «Arctic blue silver metallic», «Atacama gray metallic», Galapagos anthracite metallic», «Reflex silver metallic» and «Black magic pearl effect». Basic interior features include «Cricket» leather upholstery in «Anthracite» or «Latte Macchiato» color. When the customer chooses the optional comfort seats (standard starting with the V8 FSI), they may also be ordered in Nappa leather with the special «St. Tropez» pattern and its white hue.
In conjunction with the «Latte Macchiato» and «St. Tropez» color schemes, the seats and interior door trim also sport seams in Aquamarine blue. Providing an exciting contrast are the «Aluminium engine spin, dark» decorative inserts of the instrument panel, door trim panels and center console. As an alternative, the Volkswagen Touareg North Sails may also be ordered with «Piano paint, white» treatments in these areas, which also evokes the elegance of luxury yachts. Standard features on board include stainless steel door tread plates (with «North Sails» signature in front) and the «North Sails» logo embossed on the center panels of the front seats.
Body design: luxurious chrome accents dominate
The design of the Volkswagen Touareg North Sails fits in ideally at any marina. For one, this is attributable to the already mentioned car paint in nautical «Campanella white» and the 19-inch «Zaragoza» alloy wheels with their chrome accents (with size 275/45 tires). For another, the special model is also pleasing with the factory-installed «Chrome & Style» design package. Two oval tailpipes of the exhaust system, a roof railing in silver, bi-xenon headlights including dynamic curve lighting, a vent glass sunroof and 65 percent light absorbing tinted windows in the rear (from the B-pillars) round out the equipment package. «North Sails» decals on the B-pillars complete the modifications.
Perfect at the pier and on the way there
The Volkswagen Touareg is the first choice for every skipper, not only at marinas, but as a towing vehicle for a boat trailer. The reason: all versions of the successful luxury SUV can tow braked trailers weighting up to 3.5 metric tonnes. The allowable hitch load is up to 140 kilograms. A removable trailer hitch is therefore part of the standard equipment package.
