The Volkswagen Touran is a compact MPV based on a vertically stretched 5th generation of the Volkswagen Golf and sold in Europe. It was launched in 2003 to fill a perceived gap in Volkswagen's model lineup below their large MPV, the Sharan. The car is delivered in a 2 (area-dependent), 5 or 7 seat version. It can be considered as an extended version of the Golf Plus, since their front-end are similar in size, and the Touran is 20cm longer (and therefore a seven-seater, while the Golf Plus is a five-seater).
