Freshened-up Volkswagen T-Roc officially priced
Line-up remains a three model affair exclusively powered by two TSI engines.

Having divulged full specification details of the refreshed T-Roc last month, Volkswagen has released pricing of the step-up model from the newly released Taigo ahead of its market debut this coming Tuesday (5 July).
Despite a late arrival two years ago as it made landfall in Europe in 2017, a total of 4 490 T-Rocs have been sold in South Africa so far, with sales often bettering those of the Tiguan.
As indicated last month, Volkswagen has stuck with a three model range comprising two Design derivatives and a single R-Line. For the time being, the flagship T-Roc R is again a no-no while a certain no-go is the soft-top Cabriolet.
Starting the range off, the entry-level Design is again motivated by the long-serving 1.4 TSI, whose 110kW/250Nm is delivered to the front wheels through an eight-speed Tiptronic gearbox.

Claimed fuel consumption is 6.3 L/100 km with Volkswagen reporting a top speed of 205 km/h and 0-100 km/h in 8.4 seconds.
In mid-spec Design and flagship R-Line guises, the T-Roc makes do with the 2.0 TSI rated at 140kW/320Nm.
A seven-speed DSG sends the amount of twist to all four wheels with Wolfsburg claiming a top speed of 216 km/h and 0-100 km/h in 7.2 seconds. Fuel consumption is pegged at 7.3 L/100 km.
As before, no TDI models, a manual gearbox or entry-level 1.0 TSI is available, with the same applying to the new 1.5 TSI Evo that replaced the 1.4 TSI on the Old Continent.
