Volkswagen will have a strong focus on is SUV range at this year’s National Ploughing Championships, writes Trish Whelan.

The brand has been a strong supporter of the show for many years and this year will have their largest range of SUVs on display ever, including the new T-Cross, the T-Roc, the Tiguan and 7-seat Tiguan Allspace, as well as the top of the range Touareg.

The National Ploughing Championships attracts almost a quarter of a million visitors each year and this year, with such a focus on new technology including electric vehicles, visitors will see the fully-electric e-Golf. Making its Irish debut is the new VW Passat, available as a petrol, diesel and as a plug-in hybrid in the form of the new Passat GTE.

If the weather takes a turn for the worst, visitors to the Volkswagen stand can pop by and pick up a Volkswagen poncho.

Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles will also have a strong presence at this year’s show. Models on display will include the new Grand California and the brand is also promising more surprises to be revealed closer to the event.
