The Touareg is the first of the current line of VW's sold in South Africa to be offered with the optional package, which includes R-Design features and a sport suspension.

FOR GOOD SPORTS


The R-Line line, intended to give the Touareg a more dynamic exterior look, includes a new front spoiler, a matte black rear diffuser and oval tailpipes piercing the redesigned rear bumper. A roof spoiler completes the look from the rear and body-coloured sills and chromed door bump strips distinguish the R-Line model in profile.

The exterior look is finished off with 20” alloy rims.

Leather sport seats are provided for the front occupants, there are shift paddles on the leather-trimmed steering wheel (with gloss black inserts), and pedals and door  sills in stainless steel.

The R-Line package costs R35 000 and is available on all Touareg derivatives except the Terrain Tech.
