Car Buyer's Guide

Overview

The Volkswagen Touareg is Volkswagen’s executive SUV in Malaysia, offered here as the CR facelift R-Line. It suits buyers who want a five-seat, petrol-powered large SUV with a 3.0-litre V6 rather than an electric SUV. The sole variant costs from RM384,972 and sits above the Mazda CX-80 and Audi Q8 e-tron on price.

Touareg in 2026 — what's new

For 2026, the Touareg in Malaysia carries on as the CR facelift R-Line launched in 2024, with no 2026-specific Malaysian specification change announced. The current range is simple: one CKD R-Line with a 3.0-litre TSI V6 petrol engine. The nameplate’s future remains fluid: it has been linked to discontinuation and Tayron replacement, and then to a next-generation EV.

Volkswagen Touareg buyer's guides & reviews

Verdict

The Touareg is a straightforward executive SUV: one petrol V6 R-Line, five seats and a price that places it above the Mazda CX-80 and Audi Q8 e-tron, but below the Volvo XC90 and BMW iX. Its 2025 price revision makes the current Malaysian car much cheaper than the 2024 launch positioning with VAP, though it is not the cheapest choice in class. Buy it for the Volkswagen badge and V6 format, not for range breadth.
