The decision ends a 24-year run for Volkswagen’s first SUV.

Overview

  • Volkswagen confirmed production of the petrol and diesel Touareg will cease in 2026.
  • The Touareg Final Edition is on sale now with orders accepted until the end of March 2026, starting at €75,025 in Germany.
  • Final Edition touches include laser-engraved ‘FINAL EDITION’ lettering and an embossed gear selector, with multicolor ambient lighting added to Elegance trim and above.
  • The Final Edition is offered as a package across existing Touareg variants rather than limited to the R grade.
  • Industry reports suggest the nameplate could return as an electric model on the SSP platform around 2029, though Volkswagen has not announced a successor or timeline.
