Sporty looks and dynamic performance with the highest comfort. With an extensive equipment package, the new Touareg W12 sport Edition is immediately available in Germany.

The centre piece of the new Touareg Special Edition is the powerful twelve cylinder engine: the 6.0 liter engine achieves 450 HP / 331 kW and a torque of 600 Nm. With that the Touareg accelerates in 5.9 seconds to 100 km/h and reaches an electronically limited maximum speed of 250 km/h. The power is transferred to the wheels with a six speed automatic Tiptronic transmission.

As the name already promises, the new Touareg Sport Edition displays its sporting character with the roof spoiler as well as the widened wheel arches and flares. In combination with the 20“ custom light metal wheel set “Casablanca“, the muscular character of the Touareg W12 Sport Edition is clearly set.

A silver colored roof luggage carrier, darkened rear and side windows and the bumpers in the vehicle color complete the sovereign impression of this car with standard sport spirit. The double exhaust pipes with sound designed exhaust system clarify the power both optically and acoustically.

The interior corresponds with the Touareg’s sporty feeling but at the same time has high-value accents. The gracious leather Individual sport seats and the “Micropoint“ aluminum decoration shape the full optics of the interior. Standard on board are 2 zone climate control, radio-DVD-navigation system with colored multi functional display plus speaker system and CD changer as well as a mobile phone hands free kit.

Bi-xenon headlights with curve headlight and bending light function belong to the equipment package, as well as the steering column mounted Tiptronic shifting levers for manual control of the automatic transmission.

Like the predecessor Touareg W12 Sport, this special edition was developed by Volkswagen Individual GmbH. Besides the Sport Edition, Volkswagen Individual also offers the six-liter W12 engine for the Touareg W12 Executive, the discrete and elegant alternative to the new Sport Edition.

The new Touareg W12 Sport Edition is priced at €96,300 Euros and can be ordered in Germany immediately.
