The Volkswagen Signature

The front and rear of the Touareg R has a completely new light signature. The rear lights retain the ‘click-clack’ light signature which now incorporates a light bar across the entire rear of the boot finished off with an illuminated VW roundel (a first for Volkswagen Australia). The side mirrors also feature puddle lights which project the R logo on the ground.

Make a statement

The Touareg R features high-performance brakes with 19” brake rotors in the front and 18” in the rear, to deliver superior stopping power in any driving situation. Signature ‘R’ blue brake callipers not only aid in delivering exceptional braking but also add a visually striking touch that perfectly complements the SUV’s 22” glossy black Estoril alloy rims.

Emergency Assist

Keeping people safe is all a part of the Touareg’s nature. With the ability to detect hazards, these safety systems can support you in critical situations, activate protective mechanisms to tighten seatbelts and roll the windows up, or even bring the vehicle to a stop.

Emergency Assist
Combines the functions of Lane Assist and Adaptive Cruise Control. The system is alerted when no steering, braking or acceleration activity is detected despite sensing traffic ahead. Initially, the system attempts to wake the driver by steering jerks and finally an emergency stop is initiated and hazard warning lights are activated.¹

Proactive Occupant Protection System
Automatically initiates protective mechanisms when a potential hazard is identified – seatbelts tighten, windows roll up leaving a slight crack.¹

Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP ®)
With the antilock braking system (ABS) and the traction control system support the driver in critical situations.¹

Oncoming vehicle braking when turning
To help prevent collisions, the Touareg comes equipped with oncoming vehicle braking that automatically kicks in when you’re turning if the car detects a vehicle in your path.¹

Multi-collision braking
If the worst happens and you are in an accident, the Multi Collision Brake system automatically slows the vehicle to help prevent a second collision.¹

Area View

Manoeuvring in the busy city centre, in a multi-storey car park or in rough terrain: There are many situations in which drivers could use a few extra eyes. With the "Area View" you get four cameras that capture the area around the car and transmit helpful insights to the screen of the infotainment system. For example, you can see curbs or parking markings better and can even look around the corner.¹
