Meet the new Touareg Hybrid.

The new Touareg Hybrid is the first production hybrid vehicle from

Volkswagen. It has an innovative EURO 5 compliant 3.0 litre V6 TSI engine with 333 PS and a parallel hybrid drivetrain. A 34.3 kW electric motor is positioned between the petrol engine and the 8 speed auto tiptronic gearbox, which allows you to drive on the electric motor alone with no emissions, up to a speed of about 31 mph. Alternatively, it can provide a noticeable power boost to the petrol engine when required in situations such as overtaking manoeuvres. It can even help accelerate the new Touareg Hybrid from 0 to 62 mph in just

6.5 seconds, faster than many hot hatches.

However, none of these benefits come with a compromise, as the off-road and towing credentials of the new Touareg are unaffected by the hybrid system. In fact, it is the first hybrid off-road vehicle with a trailer load limit of 3.5 tonnes. Its Combined fuel consumption* is an impressive 34.4 mpg and it emits just 193 g/km of CO

2Zone electronic climate control enables the driver and front passenger to each select their preferred temperature setting. The system recognises the intensity of the sunlight as well as the outside temperature and adjusts accordingly. Automatic air recirculation prevents unpleasant outside odours, such as exhaust fumes when reversing, from entering the cabin.

Standard on all models.

4Zone electronic climate control with automatic air recirculation is optionally available enabling individuals in both rows of seats to select their preferred temperature setting. Ventilation speed and distribution can also be individually adjusted. Rear passengers are able to set their required temperature using their own control panel and there are also adjustable vents in the rear centre console. The system also uses residual heat from the already running engine to provide additional warmth in the passenger compartment. Optional on all models except Hybrid.

The auxiliary parking heater can be activated via remote control from up to 600 metres away, ensuring warm seats, clear vision and no steamed-up windows before you get in the car, providing greater comfort and safety on cold winter days. The auxiliary heater and ventilation system can also be controlled or pre-programmed via remote control or via the navigation/radio system. Optional on all models except Hybrid.

NOTES

01) The maximum power output figures are quoted in PS (or Pferdestärke, which is the metric equivalent of horsepower). To convert from metric to imperial horsepower, divide the PS figure by 1.0139.

02) Figures are calculated in accordance with manufacturer’s criteria. The individual unladen weight depends on the specification of the vehicle, this then reduces the possible payload accordingly. The unladen weight and payload both include the fuel tank 90% full, driver (68 kg) and luggage (7 kg) in line with EU directive 95/48.

03) With increasing altitude the engine performance diminishes. From 1,000 m above sea level and for every 1,000 m thereafter 10% of the vehicle/trailer weight (trailer weight + gross vehicle weight) must be deducted.

04) Fully compatible with 5% bio diesel in accordance with EN590 Standard.

05) Thanks to the knock control, unleaded four star (at least 95 RON) can be used instead of unleaded Super plus. In order to achieve maximum fuel consumption benefits on the TSI engine, Ultra Low Sulphur Petrol

(ULSP) must be used.

06) Official fuel consumption according to EU Directive 99/94. The consumption calculation according to

1999/100/EC is based on the actual unladen weight of the vehicle. Additional specifications can lead to a higher weight class and hence to consumption figures of this higher weight class. The driving style, road and traffic conditions, environmental influences and vehicle condition can in practice lead to consumption figures, which may differ from those calculated with this standard.

07) The weight of a vehicle will influence the level of CO

2

emission it produces; as a result, vehicles with higher levels of specification and factory-fitted options may emit higher levels of CO

VOlKSWAGEN SERVICE.

fOR yOUR PEACE Of MINd.

The Volkswagen Warranty. Three-year Warranty. All Volkswagen new Touaregs come with a three-year/60,000 miles warranty, which protects your car against the failure of most mechanical and electrical components due to manufacturing defects. This comprises a two-year manufacturer’s warranty with unlimited mileage plus a further one-year/60,000 miles (whichever is soonest) Retailer Warranty. Should the mileage exceed 60,000 miles within the first two years, the manufacturer’s two-year warranty will still be valid. If an additional warranty for subsequent years or higher mileage is desired, it may be purchased from any authorised Volkswagen luxury car specialist retailer; however, this additional warranty must be purchased before the mileage reaches 60,000*. full details of the three-year warranty are available from your authorised

Volkswagen luxury car specialist retailer. This three-year warranty is only available on vehicles purchased in the UK through an authorised Volkswagen luxury car specialist retailer.

* All warranty work must be completed by an authorised Volkswagen luxury car specialist retailer or repairer.

Three-year Paint Warranty. The paintwork of the new Touareg is covered against manufacturing defects for a period of three years. Naturally, the new Touareg must be cared for in compliance with the operating instructions which will be found in your vehicle handbook. Please consult your authorised Volkswagen luxury car specialist retailer or repairer for full warranty details.

12-year Body Protection Warranty. The internal body sections and panels of the new Touareg are covered against rusting through from the inside for a period of 12 years. Naturally, the new Touareg must be cared for in compliance with the operating instructions. Please consult your authorised Volkswagen luxury car specialist retailer or repairer for full warranty details.

Service Intervals. Volkswagen are pleased to offer you a choice on how your new Touareg is serviced. The appropriate selection is entirely dependent on how the car is likely to be driven and its general use. To help you identify which type of service would be most suitable, please refer to the following guide.

The Time and distance Service is recommended for vehicles that will cover less than 10,000 miles in 12 months and if the vehicle is likely to be used in the following way:

• Predominantly urban driving, short journeys with frequent cold starts.

• Activities regularly producing high engine loading, e.g. frequent hill climbs, driving with vehicle fully loaded and towing.

• Uneconomical driving style using high rpms with heavy acceleration and heavy braking.

74

The service intervals for the Time and distance Service are as follows:

• Oil change service – Every 10,000 miles/1 year (whichever is soonest).

• Interval service – Every 20,000 miles/2 years (whichever is soonest).

• Inspection service – Every 40,000 miles/3 years (whichever is soonest).

The longlife Service is recommended for vehicles with a daily mileage of more than 25 miles where the vehicle is driven regularly mainly on longer distance journeys. The vehicle is driven mainly at a constant speed with minimum vehicle and engine loading, minimal towing and driven in an economical manner.

With the longlife Service the vehicle can cover anywhere between 10,000 † and a maximum of 18,000 † miles or 24 months (whichever is soonest) between oil changes. Inspection service is typically in the third year of ownership and thereafter every second year, for vehicles with an approximate annual mileage of 10,000 miles.

† Please note that mileages are approximate as the service indicator system uses kilometres as the distance measurement.

Please consult your authorised Volkswagen luxury car specialist retailer or repairer for full details.
