The Touareg eHybrid^⁠¹ is a plug-in hybrid that combines an electric motor and a TSI petrol engine. When the battery is sufficiently charged, you start in virtually silent electric mode, producing zero local carbon emissions. If you activate hybrid mode, you combine both drives for maximum system output of 280 kW (381 PS). A special highlight in this mode is the interplay between the navigation system and drive management. When you enter your destination into the navigation system and start route navigation whilst in hybrid mode, the combustion engine and electric motor work in perfect harmony with each other for the entire duration of your journey.

The optional Travel Assist function provides you with extremely useful driving assistance on board. It can keep you in your lane, maintain a minimum distance to the vehicle in front and the maximum speed you have set.²^⁠

One of the features it uses to do this is adaptive lane guidance. This actively keeps the vehicle in the middle of the lane. Travel Assist adapts to your driving style and can also drive further to the left or right in its own lane instead of exactly in the middle.²

In combination with a navigation system, Travel Assist is extended by predictive cruise control and cornering assistance. Travel Assist can therefore adapt the vehicle’s speed to the relevant speed limits and road layouts (bends, roundabouts etc.)²

In combination with the automatic gearbox, you can remain relaxed while driving through traffic jams and stop-and-go traffic.
