The interior layout, fit and finish
Driving position and dashboard
All versions of the Volkswagen Touran have a front centre armrest, a height-adjustable driver's seat and a steering wheel that has a good amount of in-and-out and up-and-down adjustment.
From entry-level SE trim you also get manually adjustable lumbar support. Electric lumbar adjustment is available as an option on SEL models. The seat is reasonably firm, but it’s supportive and comfortable enough for long journeys.
Heated, electrically adjustable door mirrors are standard across the range and a heated windscreen is a well-priced option to help you see clearly on frosty mornings.

Sat nav and infotainment
All Tourans have an 8.0-inch colour touchscreen as standard, with a DAB radio, Bluetooth and a USB socket. If you upgrade to SE Family trim, you'll get the Volkswagen Discover Navigation system, which adds sat-nav and a three-year subscription to the brand’s Car-Net service. Car-Net provides information such as traffic and fuel prices.
SEL and R-line add Wireless App Connect. That allows you to integrate your smartphone with the Touran infotainment system using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto without the need for the USB cable.
