What drives the cost of insuring a Volkswagen Touareg
HLDI does not publish loss results for the Volkswagen Touareg, so our estimate uses the typical losses of its segment (Midsize SUV): 0.95× average for liability, 1.00× for collision and 0.95× for comprehensive.
- Repair and parts costs: Midsize SUV — mainstream parts availability keeps repairs moderate.
- Recalls & complaints: 5 NHTSA recall campaigns and 92 owner complaints across its latest three model years. Recalls don't change premiums directly, but open recalls should be fixed.
Volkswagen Touareg trims and configurations (2017)

How we estimate this
We start from the state's average liability, collision and comprehensive premiums published by the NAIC, then apply a location factor (population density and commute time from the Census ACS, weather hazard scores from FEMA's National Risk Index), a vehicle factor (HLDI insurance-loss data where available, otherwise vehicle segment), and a driver-profile multiplier. Results are rounded ranges for comparison, not quotes. Read the full methodology.
