Volkswagen has launched the new T‑Roc in the UK, offering 1.5‑litre eTSI mild‑hybrid engines in two tunes, R‑Line trim levels and a starting price of £31,635, with a full‑hybrid variant due later in the year.
Ride quality will depend on specification, as the MQB Evo‑based T‑Roc is available with passive dampers or optional adjustable dampers priced at £765, and many R‑Line buyers may choose 19in wheels.
The 1.5‑litre eTSI is offered in 114bhp and 148bhp versions, while full‑hybrid 134bhp and 168bhp models are expected later; the T‑Roc’s wheelbase is 30mm longer, boot capacity is 475 litres and well‑spec R‑Line cars can top £40,000.
The cabin gains improved seat comfort and perceived quality versus the previous T‑Roc, and key rivals include the Toyota C‑HR, Renault Symbioz, Skoda Karoq and Nissan Qashqai.
