Just why is the Volkswagen T-Roc so popular?!

Since first unveiling the T-Roc just 6 years ago VW has sold more than 112,000 T-Rocs in just the UK alone! In fact, in just 2023 alone, more T-Rocs were sold in the UK than the combined number of Polestar, Genesis, Bentley, Alfa Romeo, Jeep & Subarus sold in the same year!

Well, Mat’s about to take a closer look to see just what makes the T-Roc so popular. Some things are fairly obvious, such as the design. It may be a pretty standard crossover SUV, but it comes with a good few design cues to help it stand out. It’s also pretty well built, so even just opening and closing the doors helps the car feel solid.

What’s more, its small size means it’s pretty easy to drive around town, and helps even the more cautious driver squeeze through smaller gaps and into small parking spaces.

However, it’s not all rosy. For example, while the entry-level T-Roc isn’t too expensive, costing around £28,000, the price can easily rise up into the mid-£40,000! The car we have here, for example, isn’t even the top-spec car, but with a couple of options added it costs north of £41,000! When you consider what other family-friendly cars you can pick up for that price, we’re not sure if they offer the best value for money!

And while it’s ok to drive in town, once you hit a dual carriageway or country road, the pick-up and responsiveness of the gearbox and engine leaves a little bit to be desired. There’s also a lack of hybrid engine options, too!

So will Mat think it’s good value for money? Or will he choose an alternative instead? Stick around and see for yourself!
