Meet the new Volkswagen T‑Roc: a bold second-generation crossover that brings together expressive design, responsive performance and everyday versatility. Its spacious five-seat interior, advanced digital technology and confident 1.4 TSI engine make it equally at home on the daily commute or a weekend escape, while unmistakable T‑Roc character ensures it always stands out.
Longer proportions, sculpted surfaces and a distinctive coupé-like profile give the new T‑Roc a confident presence, complemented by striking Volkswagen lighting signatures and expressive alloy-wheel designs.
A refined five-seat cabin offers increased passenger room and a generous 475-litre luggage compartment, expanding to as much as 1,350 litres with the rear seatbacks folded.
A Digital Cockpit, 10.3-inch infotainment system, Wireless App-Connect and four fast-charging USB-C connections bring information, entertainment and everyday convenience within easy reach.
The new T‑Roc introduces a longer, more dynamic silhouette shaped by clean surfaces, muscular rear shoulders and its signature “hockey stick” design line. A wider-looking stance and carefully sculpted proportions give this compact crossover a confident and athletic road presence.
LED headlights and newly designed LED rear lights create a distinctive appearance after dark, while selected derivatives add IQ.LIGHT LED Matrix headlamps, illuminated Volkswagen logos and continuous front and rear light strips. Alloy-wheel designs range from the 16-inch Bilbao wheels on the Life to the striking 19-inch York Aero wheels of the R‑Line Black Style.
Step inside a completely redesigned five-seat cabin that combines increased space with a clean, driver-focused layout. Premium soft-touch materials and supportive seating create an inviting environment, while the longer body and wheelbase provide additional room for passengers.
The 475-litre luggage compartment makes light work of shopping, luggage and everyday family needs, expanding to as much as 1,350 litres when the rear seatbacks are folded. Depending on the derivative, interior features include sports comfort seats, electrically adjustable front seats with memory, multi-colour ambient lighting and three-zone Air Care Climatronic.
The new T‑Roc is powered by a turbocharged 1.4 TSI petrol engine that produces 110 kW and 250 Nm of torque. Paired with an eight-speed Tiptronic transmission, it delivers smooth, responsive performance through the front wheels and accelerates from 0–100 km/h in 8.4 seconds.
A combined fuel-consumption figure of 6.6 litres per 100 km helps balance enjoyable performance with everyday efficiency. Hill Start Assist, an electromechanical parking brake with Auto Hold and speed-sensitive power steering further support confident, comfortable driving in town and on the open road.
A Digital Cockpit and 10.3-inch infotainment system create a modern, intuitive command centre for driving information, media and vehicle functions. Wireless App-Connect integrates compatible smartphones without cable clutter, while four USB-C connections with charging capacity of up to 45 W help keep everyone powered.
The optional Discover infotainment package introduces a larger 12.9-inch display, navigation, voice control, Digital Cockpit Pro and a windscreen head-up display. Available features such as the Driving Experience Dial and six-speaker audio system add another layer of control, convenience and enjoyment to every journey.

A rear-view camera is standard on the R‑Line derivatives and available for the Life, helping make parking and manoeuvring easier.
