Under the bonnet, the Royal GT 470 package brings an upgrade for the 3.0-liter TDI V6 which offers 240 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque in standard. Due to some tweaks such as a remapped ECU unit and a high performance exhaust system, the V6 diesel is able to produce 275 horsepower and 580 Nm of torque, resources which make the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h possible in 6,9 seconds.

According to the German tuners, thanks to the engine upgrades, the top speed of the new Volkswagen Touareg raises to 229 km/h. On the other hand, the exterior appearance is improved by a body kit which includes extended wheel arches for more aggressivity, a revised bonnet, a new front apron with LED lights, side skirts and a rear apron with an air diffuser. The styling tweaks at the exterior are completed by a new set of alloy wheels with sizes betwen 20 to 22 inches but also a variety of exhaust tail pipe choices and a revised front grille.

At the interior, Hofele-Design prepared a two-color leather upholstery in black and white, a leather treatment prepared mainly for the seats and door panels. A plus of style is brought at the interior by aluminum trim and other minor styling tweaks. Besides the appearance improvements and power upgrades, the Germans tuners at Hofele-Design offer an air suspension and an electronic lowering module which is able to reduce the ground clearance by 40 mm.
