VW continues in an authentic race to evolve its automobile fleet, almost always with a strong focus on electrification, and of course, the new Volkswagen T-Roc follows this path.
In the end, this renowned SUV will receive a new profound update and is already in the final stages of development, but it brings with it something new.
Volkswagen T-Roc could even be the last model with a pure combustion engine from the company!
Well, the almost finished prototype has already been caught by the most attentive cameras and we have many changes. From a new front end very similar to that of the Tiguan, with a new design on the front grille and new full LED headlights. Still, we have a new, cleaner side profile and some chrome details that go from the hood to the rear window.
Even the rear of the new T-Roc received lights almost identical to those found on the Golf.
The platform used must be the MQB Evo, which is already shared between the new Passar, Tiguan and Golf!
Therefore, this brings a wide range of particularities that range from the implementation of an electrified system. In other words, the new T-Roc could have a plug-in hybrid variant. In this variant, the car must have a 19.7 kWh battery capable of 100 km of autonomy and charging up to 50 kW.
So what about pure combustion engines?
Well, at the moment everything indicates that the T-Roc will indeed receive the traditional combustion engines that VW still uses in its wide range of models. With offers ranging from the 1.0L three-cylinder engine to the 1.5 and 2.0L four-cylinder engines that equip the Golf.

Volkswagen T-Roc was the third best-selling car in Europe in 2023!
In a nutshell, its sales number surpassed the famous VW Golf and also many direct competitors due to the success and popularity of this type of offers.
According to a company spokesperson, the arrival of a 100% electric T-Roc model is not in the company's current plans. After all, according to him:
“The current T-Roc with internal combustion engine is one of our best-selling models, so we will not abandon this segment.”
In short, a team that wins doesn't move and Volkswagen is trying to do just that, with an updated version of the T-Roc. However, without forgetting what led to the enormous success of this model.
