Volkswagen TOURAN – the compact van as a commercial vehicle: Touran Van and Cross Van with blanked rear windows, 1.6 and 2.0-litre TDI engines, N1 registration as a light commercial
This page covers the Volkswagen Touran in the versions registered as a commercial vehicle – the Touran Van and the Cross Van Tdi. The Touran, built on the Golf platform in Wolfsburg since 2003, is a compact MPV; the Van versions omit the rear seat bench and have blanked rear side windows, so the vehicle is registered by licensing authorities as a light commercial (N1) instead of a passenger car – a practice common in several European markets among tradespeople and businesses that benefit from the different tax classification.

The register lists here 23 versions with 1,598 to 1,986 cm³ displacement from four-cylinders, a power figure of 77 kW, unladen weights from 1,445 to 1,670 kg, gross weights from 2,000 to 2,350 kg, a length of 4,530 mm and widths from 1,690 to 1,900 mm.
As the commercial variant of the best-selling compact van in its class, the Touran Van served a niche between classic panel vans and passenger-car estates: compact outer dimensions, passenger-car ride comfort and load volume for tools and materials without the overhead of a true van.
On used Touran commercial versions, the usual TDI issues count – dual-mass flywheel, turbocharger and particulate filter on the pump-injector and common-rail engines – along with the condition of the load-area trim, the DSG transmission on the relevant versions and rust on the lower door edges; spare parts run through the regular Volkswagen network.
