VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262

The VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262 reaches 60 mph in 6.53 s (100 km/h in 6.95 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.00 s, tripping the lights at 90.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.11 s and the eighth mile in 9.52 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262

The 2014 VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262 is an all-wheel-drive turbodiesel SUV of 2,185 kg with 257 bhp, which works out at 118 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.11 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,927th quickest to 60 mph, and the 109th quickest of the 1124 VWs here. It leaves better than it pulls: 90.4 mph at the lights is only the 5,013th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262 0-60 time?
The VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262 reaches 60 mph in 6.53 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,927th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262 quarter mile time?
15.00 s at 90.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.52 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.11 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262 have?
257 bhp and 2,185 kg, which is 118 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbodiesel, with 8 gears and a quoted top speed of 225 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262?
Closest here on pace: Mercedes-Benz GLA 220d 4MATIC 190 (6.52 s), Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe (C253) 250 4MATIC 211 (6.53 s), Audi Q5 40 TFSI MHEV quattro S tronic 204 (6.53 s). Each one can be raced against the VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion 262 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
