3. VW Touareg

The VW Touareg looks both big enough and nimble enough to replace the minivan. The sticker price may shock rich entrepreneurs, and the mileage figures may be a little shady, but who cares? Look at the sunroof! It’s so big, it’s like they designed the Touareg to tour Jurassic World. Where are the kids? Let’s go!

Despite all the luxury items in the new Touareg, it’s hard to miss the manly fun in this crossover. The powerful V6 engine comes in all trim levels. The alloy wheels turn heads, and when you drive by, people think “performance,” not “family.” It also luxuriously seats five adults. With double wishbone front suspension and independent four-link rear suspension, the nimble handling of the Touareg wins virile guys over pretty quickly.
