Background

Volkswagen confronts the legendary marathon from 1 to 15 January 2011 with four Race Touareg. Reliability, staying power and performance are the essentials on the 15 stages over almost 9,000 kilometres through Argentina and Chile. The 310 hp Race Touareg underwent detailed optimization to successfully master the greatest challenge by far that worldwide motorsport has to offer - and also the four driver pairings have prepared themselves for months for the two-week hunt through the Atacama Desert, the majestic Andes and the Pampa: Carlos Sainz/Lucas Cruz (E/E), Nasser Al-Attiyah/Timo Gottschalk (Q/D), Mark Miller/Ralph Pitchford (USA/ZA) and Giniel de Villiers/Dirk von Zitzewitz (ZA/D) aim to bring the coveted Dakar trophy to Wolfsburg for the third time in succession.

"A further developed and even stronger Race Touareg, four proven duos - our goal for the 2011 Dakar Rally is very clear, to add another victory to those from 2009 and 2010," says Volkswagen Motorsport Director Kris Nissen.
