What is it?

The performance world is changing, and so is Volkswagen R, as evidenced by the arrival of the Touareg R, the hot sub-brand’s first-ever plug-in hybrid model.

The new range-topping Touareg indirectly replaces the short-lived Touareg V8 TDI – a car that was never officially offered for sale in the UK – becoming the first model in Volkswagen’s flagship SUV line-up to wear the R badge since the memorable 345bhp twin-turbocharged 5.0-litre V8 diesel-powered Touareg R50 was launched in 2007. What's it like?

The Touareg R is differentiated from other standard third-generation Touareg models by a series of uniqiue styling touches, including a new-look front bumper, a blackened grille with R logo, blackened front air ducts, black exterior mirror housings, blackened sills, darkened tail-lamp lenses and trapezoidal-shaped chromed tailpipes.   Twenty-inch wheels with 285/45 profile tyres are standard.
