After 12 years of absence in the Malaysian market, Volkswagen Malaysia recently reintroduced the Touareg nameplate back here. Available in the R-Line trim, the all new Touareg will be locally assembled here in Malaysia, and it will be priced at RM469,990 with the inclusion of the Volkswagen Assurance Package (VAP).

Now in its third iteration, the all new Touareg will be powered by a 3.0-litre V6 TSI engine, delivering an output of 340 PS and up to 450 Nm of torque. Coupled with an 8-speed automatic transmission and an 4MOTION system, it offers unparalleled control and performance across various driving conditions.

A striking redesign enhances the Touareg’s commanding presence on the road. With refreshed front and rear elements, including a redesigned radiator grille, headlights, and taillight clusters adorned with a continuous horizontal LED strip, the Touareg exudes a newfound allure. Notably, the illuminated rear Volkswagen logo adds a touch of exclusivity previously seen only in select markets.

The R-Line variant embodies a harmonious blend of elegance and sportiness, accentuated by 20-inch Braga alloy wheels, enhanced chrome detailing, and distinctive ‘R’ insignias adorning the exterior.

Setting new standards in lighting technology, the Touareg features the innovative IQ LIGHT HD MATRIX headlights, offering unparalleled precision in illumination. Additionally, the inclusion of Night Vision technology, a first for Volkswagen in Malaysia, enhances nighttime visibility by detecting thermal signatures of potential hazards up to 130 meters ahead.

Step inside the spacious cabin, and you’re greeted by the luxurious Innovision Cockpit, seamlessly integrating digital display panels for enhanced functionality. Complemented by the immersive 730W Dynaudio Consequence sound system and advanced climate control features, the Touareg ensures a premium driving experience for all occupants.

Safety remains paramount with Volkswagen’s IQ.DRIVE suite of advanced safety technologies, offering intelligent support to enhance driving safety and comfort. From Adaptive Cruise Control to Front Cross Traffic Assist, the Touareg is equipped with an array of features to simplify driving and mitigate potential risks.

Available in five captivating exterior finishes, the Touareg R-Line comes bundled with the Volkswagen Assurance Package, offering peace of mind with 5 years of free maintenance, unlimited mileage warranty, and complimentary roadside assistance.
