Although Volkswagen isn’t exactly synonymous with sailing, the German automaker has teamed with North Sails – the world’s leading maker of sails – to create the Touareg North Sails design study. The Touareg concept will be unveiled at the Travemünder Woche sailing race in Germany.
Based on the current Touareg SUV, the North Sails treatment gives the SUV plenty of nautical styling cues. The exterior of the Touareg has been spruced up with 19 inch wheels, new fog lights and special blue reflectors.
On the inside, the nautical theme continues with teak wood flooring, LED lighting and white Nappa leather seats finished with aquamarine stitching. A set of binoculars, compass and plenty of North Sails badging rounds out the package.
And just in case the path becomes a little too narrow for the Touareg, a North Sails bicycle is stowed aboard.
