DIVA Drives

olkswagen is a brand that holds a worldwide reputation for producing outstanding motor vehicles. The VW Beatle, the VW Polo, the VW Golf and the VW Tiguan are all proud creations of this massively successful automobile manufacturer. This month, thanks to the amazing team at Volkswagen Qatar, OHLALA got the opportunity to test drive the new and improved VW Teramont, a vehicle that has recently received a stylish facelift. Available in seven different colours, the 2021 VW Teramont exudes an air of confidence with its large frame and classy finishes. With a length of over five metres, a width of almost two metres and a height of more than 1.7m, the VW Teramont is the largest SUV in the Volkswagen family. Although this updated model maintains the same foundation as the previous generation, there are many new features that elevate it above its predecessor. The newly designed grille sits smartly at the front end of the Teramont, housing the globally recognised VW badge. The front diffuser now sits slightly lower on the vehicle and sports a fashionable silver lip. The front bumper has also been redesigned and, along with new IQ.Light, full-LED headlamps and fog lights, gives the car a contemporary feel. The neat lines of the flanks draw the eye effortlessly from front to rear, with the silver roof rails and striking design of the 20-inch alloy wheels adding to the modern look of the vehicle. At the back end, an updated rear bumper, with IQ.Light and full-LED taillamps, finishes off the Teramont in style. We were fortunate enough to test drive a model with the coveted Highline trim. Inside this version you will find a clean and functional environment that has a premium feel to it. The driver’s 10-way adjustable and front passenger’s eight-way adjustable, ventilated power seats, in leather, offer an abundance of both comfort and support. The next generation steering wheel, also in leather, is well designed and feels great in hand. The driver’s controls have been positioned for optimal ergonomics, providing the most efficient driving environment possible. An eight-inch Touch Adaptable Infotainment System along with a Volkswagen Digital Cockpit 10-inch display, both offer easy accessibility to the vehicle’s various functions and information. A three-zone Climatronic AC and a panoramic sunroof will ensure you and your family are always kept cool and comfy. Customers can opt for either Highline or the prestigious R-Line trim, which can be ordered accordingly.
