The Volkswagen T-Roc is a Stylish Entry-Level Crossover
Michael Hines — August 27, 2017 — Autos
The Volkswagen T-Roc is the latest model from the German automaker. The baby SUV is very important to VW as it is lacking in the crossover segment. Slotting in below the Tiguan, the T-Roc is a sporty looking CUV with an upscale interior. The production version of the car differs heavily from the concept shown three years ago. That being said, no one really thought VW would put an SUV with two doors and a removable roof into production. At least the two-tone paint scheme made production.
The Volkswagen T-Roc will come with six different engine choices, three turbocharged gas units and three turbo diesels. Unfortunately Americans will not be able to get their hands on the T-Roc. Despite the country's love for small crossovers the Volkswagen T-Roc will not be sold stateside.
