Overview

• Motor1’s first look verifies a clear materials step-up with a padded fabric upper dashboard, added soft-touch surfaces, ambient lighting and aluminium-look trim, plus the return of physical steering‑wheel buttons and a new volume knob.
• The digital setup pairs a 10‑inch driver display with an optional head‑up unit and an infotainment screen up to 12.9 inches running MIB4, which adds simplified menus, a top quick‑access bar and an AI‑enhanced voice assistant.
• Cabin practicality improves with a 122‑mm length increase that boosts rear legroom, and the boot now holds 465 liters, about 20 liters more than the previous model.
• VW says roughly 20% of the T‑Roc’s approximately 200 kg of on‑board plastics are recycled, though first-seat impressions note hard plastics remain in lower, less visible areas.
• Autozeitung lists the German base price at €30,845 with a 1.5‑liter mild‑hybrid (116 hp) and DSG; a 150‑hp variant launches alongside, with features like standard lane‑change assist and available Remote Park and Travel Assist with automated lane change.
