Between patent offices, surreptitious shipping company videos, and Marussias
being left uncovered on the back of a truck in a traffic jam, lately we've been coming across all manner of ways for new cars to be accidentally revealed ahead-of-schedule. Here's another: a German model car company has let slip images of what looks like the next
Volkswagen Touareg, which is actually meant to be revealed at the
Geneva Motor Show.
The box is labeled "VW Touareg 2010," but the supplementary text mentions the fourth quarter of this year, and a quick look at the front of the SUV makes it plain that this isn't the current off-roader. In fact, it looks just like the
naked spy shots of the 2011 model taken not too long ago.
The model makes the front end look dramatically reduced in a way we hadn't picked up from Touareg spy shots, but saw clearly in the spy shots of its sister, the Porsche Cayenne. We're hoping for plenty of weight loss there to compensate for the
loss of those diesel V10 and W12 engines. We'll see the final thing and take its measure from Geneva in about six weeks.
