The Touareg R plug-in hybrid combines an electric motor and a TSI petrol engine. When the battery is sufficiently charged, you start in virtually silent electric mode, producing zero local carbon emissions. If you activate hybrid mode, you combine both drives for maximum system output of 340 kW.
With 3.5 tonne braked towing capacity the Touareg is tailor-made for your Kiwi summer adventures. Whether towing a boat or pulling a campervan to scenic spots, The Touareg ensures a seamless and stress-free towing experience.
Enhance the qualities of the new Touareg R PHEV with the off-road package. Alongside seven standard driving modes, OFF-ROAD and SNOW can also be used to adapt the engine and gear settings to the conditions.
Using the 4MOTION Active Control menu in the updated Innovision Cockpit the driver has direct access to the hybrid functions “E mode” and “Hybrid”. By touching “E mode”, the Touareg R plug-in hybrid switches to all-electric drive, and by selecting “Hybrid” mode, the driver unlocks the power of the V6 engine and Boost.
With a sufficiently charged battery the Touareg R always starts in the all-electric “E mode”. It works the other way round in “Hybrid” mode: If required, the driver uses the kick-down function to additionally demand the all-electric power as a “boost”.
The V6 turbo engine always works per kick-down and with sufficiently charged battery is also supported by the all-electric power as a “boost”. Maximum system power of 340 kW plus maximum system torque of 700 Nm – equals maximum dynamics.
The updated front of the Touareg R plug-in hybrid gets its iconic look from the new HD matrix LED headlights with six lenses each and new signature light. A new front grille with horizontal light strip rounds off the look from the front.
The rear end impresses with a 100% electric boot lid and an electric luggage compartment cover. It also radiates thanks to a new horizontal light strip and an illuminated logo. The side mirrors of the Touareg R project the new R-logo onto the ground.
The high-performance brake system with blue brake callipers and the R-logo as well as the individual front air intakes do not just look good, they also increase performance.
The new Touareg R plug-in hybrid has numerous details to delight performance design lovers. The standard Black Style design package affords the SUV a stylish presence in a premium understated look.
Sustainably tanned with olive leaf extract, the Puglia leather package conveys an exceptionally elegant look and feel in the interior. Piping in ceramique and quilted contrast stitching in the shoulder area and on the insides of the doors lend the seats a special charm.
- R exclusive Puglia leather appointed upholstery
- High gloss black centre console
- Decorative inserts in dark brushed for dashboard and door trim panels.

The new Touareg is transformed into a mobile concert hall with the optionally available DYNAUDIO Consequence sound system:
- 7.1 Dolby Surround Sound from 14 loudspeakers installed in the interior
- Four treble loudspeakers, two mid-range loudspeakers, four bass loudspeakers and two effect loudspeakers in the rear
- One centre loudspeaker in the front and a subwoofer in the luggage compartment
- 730-watt power amplifier
Huge dimensions for big impressions. The optional tilting and sliding panoramic sunroof covers almost the entire roof and also offers passengers in the rear a virtually unrestricted view of the sky. A little extra fresh air? The front half of the roof opens at the press of a button or extends fully over the rear part.
The Touareg R PHEV is equipped with a Power Adjustable Steering Column, which allows you to easily adjust the position of the steering wheel and find the most comfortable driving position for yourself. The memory function allows you to save your preferred steering wheel position to your separate driving profiles, so you can always have it set up perfectly for you and any other drivers.
The digital instrument cluster and the 38.1 cm (15 inch) screen of the infotainment system form one curved glass surface: the Innovision Cockpit.
- Operated by touch, gestures or voice control
- Displays functions in graphics and animations
- Home screen content can be customised
- Buttons can be programmed freely for favourites and shortcuts
- Selected displays can be enlarged
The new Touareg V6S R-Line has 30-colour ambient lighting as standard. The lower and upper area of the interior can thus be illuminated in different colours independently of each other. If two different colours are selected, the main colour is adopted additionally for the displays. You can therefore create completely different lighting scenarios depending on your mood.
With the App-Connect, you can connect your smartphone to the ‘Discover Pro’ navigation system. This gives you:
- Operation of selected smartphone apps via the touchscreen
- Interfaces to Apple CarPlay™, Android Auto™
The HD matrix headlight not only ensures better visibility at night but also supports you while driving. Over 19,000 individually controllable LEDs are used for each headlight.
This means that your Volkswagen is able to project markings onto the road when the high beam is switched on. These make it easier for you to drive through narrow construction zones on the highway or to stay in your lane. The HD matrix headlight also improves the function of Dynamic Light Assist. This means that other road users and traffic signs can be blocked out even more precisely from your own high beam. When you start or park your vehicle, the HD matrix headlight provides a special light animation for you.
Adaptive Cruise Control ACC helps you to maintain a previously set maximum speed and preset distance to the vehicle in front. ACC also supports you with predictive cruise control and cornering assistance.
With Traffic sign recognition, the Adaptive Cruise Control can read road signs and adapt the vehicles speed to the relevant speed limits.

The Worldwide Harmonized Light-Duty Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) is designed to provide a standardised measurement and enables the consumer to make reliable comparisons between vehicles in terms of energy (fuel and/or electricity) consumption, emissions, and electric vehicle range. However, it should be noted that the results of this test may not accurately reflect the actual fuel consumption, emissions, or range that a driver might experience in the real world. Actual results may vary depending on various factors such as driving style, road conditions, temperature, weather, vehicle load, and maintenance. Therefore, the WLTP results should be considered as an indicator of the vehicle's performance and not as a guarantee of the actual energy consumption, emissions, or range that a driver will experience in real-world driving conditions, or for making a vehicle-to-vehicle comparison. All WLTP test values are provided in accordance with New Zealand Land transport Rule: Vehicle Efficiency and Emissions Data 2022.
