The VW Touareg R is supposed to bring two worlds together that at first glance don't seem to fit together: sportiness and efficiency.

In order for this to work, the Wolfsburg-based car manufacturer VW is expanding its range of Touareg SUVs in a few months with the new top model R. It will be presented next week at the Geneva Motor Show, which opens its doors to visitors on March 5th.

Then the Touareg R will not only stand out with its sporty accentuation, but also with its drive variant: the SUV from the Wolfsburg-based company should be characterized by a high level of performance thanks to plug-in hybrid drive, which also allows purely electric driving.

System output of 462 hp

Specifically, VW relies on the combination of a 3.0-liter V6 petrol engine with 340 hp and an electric motor with 136 hp integrated in the transmission tunnel of the eight-speed automatic. The system output is specified with 462 hp and 700 Newton meters of torque.

The 2.5-ton four-wheel drive should complete the sprint to 100 km / h in around five seconds and reach a maximum of 250 km / h. A 14.1 kWh battery is located in the rear of the Touareg R, which allows purely electric driving up to 48 kilometers and up to 140 km / h. The driver can choose between locally emission-free, hybrid and a driving style that maintains the battery charge level. When the navigation device is switched on, the battery manager also takes the road and topography data into account in advance in order to adapt the battery usage and thus optimize the electric range as best as possible.

Towing capacity of up to 3.5 tons

Due to its all-wheel drive, the VW Touareg is able to pull trailer loads with a weight of up to 3.5 tons. The SUV from VW is also the first plug-in hybrid to be offered with Trailer Assist, which is intended to make maneuvering with a trailer much easier.

The Touareg R can be recognized by a few black accents, darkened LED taillights, wheel arch extensions, 20-inch wheels and R logos. Standard equipment includes 4-zone automatic air conditioning, model-specific leather upholstery, the panoramic glass sliding roof and Travel Assist, which enables assisted driving up to 250 km / h. VW wants to reveal further details in Geneva. (SP-X)
