After more than 1.2 million sales in 39 countries across three generations, the Volkswagen Touareg, as a combustion model, will cease production following the release of a Final Edition.

The five-door K4 will take the place of the outgoing Ceed in Kia’s lineup, which recently exited the range after nearly 20 years in production.

After 2.5 million Golfs produced and in time for its 50th birthday next year, the Golf GTI Edition 50 is a celebration of one of the most popular hot hatches of all time.

The famous historic motoring event is set to begin in a Woodstock-esque style.

Sitting between the big selling Tiguan and flagship Touareg SUV in the Volkswagen range, the new Tayron is available as a five or seven-seater.

The new 282bhp seven-seater is 250mm longer than the standard model and benefits from an 86kWh battery with a range of around 291 miles.

Volkswagen is set to release some of its most powerful production cars as four new trims of Golf hit the market.
