I've had the opportunity to use a VW T-roc as a temporary replacement for my family's Touareg during some warranty work, and I must say, it's been quite a pleasant surprise. Initially, I had reservations about its size, worried that my family of four wouldn't have enough room, especially with two growing boys. However, to my surprise, the backseat has proven to be quite roomy, and there haven't been any complaints about legroom.
The boot space also exceeded my expectations for a smaller car, providing ample room for our needs. As for the driving experience, I was pleasantly surprised once again. The T-roc feels confident around town, offering a smooth and nippy ride. With its automatic DSG auto gearbox, gear transitions are seamless.
I'm also really impressed with the mileage we achieved on our long journey with the T-roc. Despite it being a petrol engine, we managed to average an impressive 49.5 MPG. I believe the way it switches to operate on two cylinders in eco mode contributes significantly to this efficiency. It's yet another aspect of this car that has positively surprised me during our time using it.
Cornering is positive, making it feel like a mature and composed car to drive. Even on the motorway, it doesn't disappoint. While it is easily capable of exceeding the speed limit, it seems more at home maintaining a steady pace just under 70 mph not having to worry about getting a speeding ticket.
In terms of tech and features, I'm not entirely sure about the specific trim level (I think it the the T-Roc Life 1.5 TSI) we're using, but it seems to have all the necessary sensors and technology. It strikes a good balance between having what you need without overwhelming you with endless screens and menus. Overall, I've come to appreciate the T-roc more as I've driven it, and it's proven to be a practical and enjoyable choice during our Touareg's warranty work.
If this sounds like the car for you, may I recommend giving the wonderful team at the #Letchworth branch of #vw Marshall Motor Group, they have been totally fantastic and have helped to renew our confidence in the brand.
