The 2024 Volkswagen Touareg is a plug-in hybrid SUV with AWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the CR LCI generation. The R eHybrid is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured R eHybrid version develops 462 hp and 700 Nm (516 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 5.1 seconds, which is decisively quick for everyday road use. Top speed is listed at 250 km/h (155 mph). Its power output is about 30% above the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 20% quicker than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Battery, range and charging
Battery capacity is listed at 14.3 kWh. The recorded electric range is 47 km (29 miles). Listed energy or fuel consumption is 1.8 L/100km. Its listed range is about 35% below the peer average. Real-world range and charging speed still depend on temperature, speed, wheel choice, battery state and the conditions of the test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,878 mm (192.0 in) in length, 1,984 mm (78.1 in) in width, and 1,717 mm (67.6 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,904 mm (114.3 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 810 litres (28.6 cu ft), expanding to 1,800 litres (63.6 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 2,455 kg (5,412 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 3,500 kg (7,716 lb). That cargo volume is about 49% above the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
In perspective
Compared with nearby plug-in hybrid SUV models from the same period, the 2024 Volkswagen Touareg is strongest on towing capacity and cargo capacity, while range and price stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
