I may be wrong, but I think the Stemme V10 is legally not a TMG.

The type category "Touring Motor Glider" does not exist in the US. The
Stemme, Dimona, G109, DG-800, ASK-14, ASW-24E, etc., are all gliders
with self-launch capability. An FAA Glider rating allows you to fly any
of them as PIC. A self-launch endorsement from a CFIG is required if
(and only if) you make use of the self-launch capability.

I thought so. But the original poster lives in Germany, at least his
name and email address point in this direction. And as he wrote that he
would like to have the TMG rating, I think this question is of interest
to him.

The Stemme is a TMG under German rules.

I know nothing about Gliders but I went and looked at the PDF document
above. CS prop, retractable gear, 170 knots. That is impressive.

My question. Can it be flown by a PP-SEL or do you have to have a glider
rating?

In the USA, you need a glider rating with a self-launch enddorsement.
Other countries treat it quite differently.
