volkswagen touareg r
The Touareg's flagship is the R version, which also becomes the most powerful plug-in hybrid in Volkswagen's range. The combined output is 462 hp, obtained from a combination of a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 and a 100 kW electric motor. The combined torque is 700 Nm (516 lb ft). A 14.1 kWh lithium-ion battery stores the energy needed for the electric motor and it is mounted under the luggage compartment. Transmission is via an 8-speed gearbox and a transfer box that transmits power to the front and rear axle through a Torsen differential. Maximum 70% of the torque can be sent to the front axle and up to 80% to the rear.
