The Touareg V8 TDI will be great for.................towing unwanted A380 airplanes. Both will have similar depreciation curves.

At this point, I'd say 737-8 Maxes

Volkswagen's R performance skunkworks has been making noise in recent years about its future being electrified, and now it's gone and launched its first hybrid in the form of the Touareg R.

The Touareg R joins the Golf R and T-Roc R in an expanding lineup at the R division and comes powered by a plug-in hybrid powertrain good for 455 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque.

The powertrain consists of a 3.0-liter turbocharged V-6 paired with a single electric motor, with drive routed to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. The electric motor is rated at 134 hp and can power the vehicle on its own thanks to a sizeable 14.1-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery. The top speed in electric mode is 87 mph, and with both power sources running it moves up to 155 mph.

Touareg R debuts as first electrified model from VW's go-fast division

Could this drivetrain fit in an RS4 or would a 2.0TSI + electric motors be a more suitable pairing?

Is the ICE gasoline or diesel?

Is the ICE gasoline or diesel?

Powering the Touareg R is a 335-horsepower turbocharged 3.0-liter gasoline V-6 that pairs with a 134-horsepower electric motor. An eight-speed automatic transmission is on hand, as is all-wheel drive, and VW claims that the car can go up to 87 mph in electric mode. There's no estimate for all-electric driving range available yet, but the battery pack measures 14.1 kWh.

HI . Why it is not for sale in the USA?

It is too expensive to compete with the mainstream brand. Volkswagen's perception is very different in the States than Europe etc.
