Drove the T-ROC 1.5L 150ps and found it a marvellous car to drive . It is a pity VW did not make the extra effort to "soft touch" the dash . The 1.0L , 115ps I think should be more than adequate and what one saves on the engine could go into the spec , panoramic roof etc . I suppose for the plusher interior the Audi Q2 would be the default buy though more expensive . Rebecca would look great extolling the virtues of a Lada Neva !!
Just had my Golf serviced at my local VW dealer and while there had a look at the T ROC.The price and the interior killed any thoughts of having a test drive.He said if specced with a DSG box it was as expensive as a Tiguan.
Nice honest review about a VW! Refreshing!
It’s a good size, nice curves, easy to get in the rear, not too big up front, probably goes quite fast if you really go for it, a head turner to, others will look at you go past and think how lucky you are to have it......the cars not bad either.
Lol
Sorry is NAX stuck in 1977...embarrassing
Looks decent, but can’t understand the low quality interior
I got my (2018) T-Roc last week and I really like it. Decent motor and fuel economy is excellent.
robicenco Hows it holding up any problems or is it worth a shout cos I'm after one.
Another Great Video Review
Wow Rebecca👍😊 long time...
Nice review 😊👍👍
Which cars do you recommend when you say "if you move up the engine scale or add 4WD, we reccon you'll be paying a price which you would get a MUCH better car"? Thank you! (Great review btw!)
I went for the top f the range 1,5 DSG SEL wit Panoramic/sunroof.
After coming up to 3 yars ownership I have been very pleased with it.. Ride is good, DSG Auto performs faultlessly & am still looking for the jerky problem people say it has.
Overall it gets good mpg, the average overall has been 44mpg. Highest ever on the BlueTrainer thingy was 57 lowest 29 on short winter runs. N
The good, economical, good selection of electronic aids, auto hold brake, semi autonomous driving if you can trust it(I found the mpg was lower using it so didn’t bother much) Lane assist on all time, Rear camera good & stays clear & clean as it pops away in rear badge when not in use. Ride quality very god & handling I found very acceptable.
The bad points aren’t that many but there are a few. The interior is a bit plasticy as many have said, even on the top model. Hardish plastic dash too. Front seats are the biggest moan for me, in fact I nearly didn’t buy it because there was no electric seat option at all on any model. That’s my biggest complaint really, if VW made she top model anyway, a bit less hard shiny plastic & an electric seat option I would have been tempted again, maybe
Alas I’m waiting for my Lexus350h. It’s got everything the TRoc has and much more, .The good thing is it has electric searing, with heated, cooled, & Massage seating👍 the bad news it’s another £20,000. I mulled it over & decided let’s go for it , while we are still allowed to drive.
My grandad has the 1.5 SEL and he loves it! His previous car was a golf but wanted the higher driving position. The build quality is the only thing that really lets it down.
T roc moose test
Josh I am surprised by the poor quality interior
Grandad should get a Mercedes
Rebecca is polished and on point. The VW sux.
Good review but, is it so difficult to clean the car's inside before making this vid?
Wow nice Volkswagen car,Thanks for good review!!!
Just don’t understand the low rent interior trim. It’s bizarre for a VW. I was at the dealer recently waiting for my Passat to be serviced and sat in one of these, and a mid-spec Polo which blew theT-Roc’s interior away. It’s a shame as it’s an otherwise good car. I asked the dealer about the interior and he suggested this sort of hard plastic was going to see a resurgence in an effort to keep costs down.
Jonathan Harrison VW reliability questionable these days too
David Holden I used to own a Passat, and it was the most unreliable car I have ever owned so far. Engine failed at only 18,000 miles due to oil pump failure. Electronic handbrake failed, and the car rolled into my house, numerous recalls and injector problems, also the car at the time was under 5 years old.
Tom, I bet you'll never forget to leave it/any future car parked in gear now, eh?
they do this to avoid to cannibalize the Audi
I had the T-Roc SEL with 1.5 evo but swap it after three months for a new VW Tiguan SE Nav. The 1.5 evo engine was awful. At low speeds (under 20 mph) and at around 1500 revs I experienced engine juddering similar to engine misfire. Despite several attempts the VW retailer couldn't cure the problem. Hence the VW retailer agreed to a car swap at no extra cost to me. Cylinder deactivation, although meant to improve fuel economy, is not a good idea for a low capacity turbo engine. A turbo is added in low capacity engines to increase power output but de-activating two cylinders would reduce power output by half. So having two contrary technologies on a low capacity cylinder engine does not make sense particularly when running at low urban speeds. Cylinder de-activation techology was originally conceived in the 1980s to improve fuel economy for 8 cylinder 4 litre engines cruising at motorway speeds. So my advice based on experience is avoid the 1.5 evo engine model. I also found this engine rough and unrefined.
My sincere condolences for buying a Tiguan. Read my short rant-review a few lines up.
My sister gave me a hand
Good points sounds rather silly of VW, am no fan of Turbos to start with.
Buy a french car : they have far better engines!
4:12 yeahhhhh, at last !!! AND the BANANA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this bigger inside and outside than Seat Arona?
It would be really practical if it was not for the sloping bottom.
The rear is almost smaller usable size than a golf. And this is a problem on almost all of this class.
The boot is just too small for the size of this car.
Great Car Excellent Presentation
was considering purchasing one of these but the interior has put me off soo much, cheap plastic looked horrible in the video and it was a 18 plate imagine it after a few years, the interior going to have war scars. despite the interior i think it has alot of potential. very attractive car.
Rebecca-Rocks
Need some close ups on the pedals.
Halogen headlights as standards. Well there’s the height of technology right there!
Embarrassing, but then I wouldn’t expect anything else from VW.
One liter motor size is practically like a lawn mower engine. Other than that I wish VW sells this in the States, it looks good.
rabit818 It is not coming to US.
rabit818 Only a few years ago, 1 litre engines were slow. These days, most are turbo charged and are the equivalent of much larger engines
So nice to see and hear Rebecca again. I would ask you to test the Jetta, but the US version is completely different from the version you get in Europe.
Lovely review. Though the car isn't much of a head turner, well presented !!
Lovely looking,cars not bad as well😛
My mum drives a full spec 1.5 it's fab
Stunning. The car seems nice.
An 18 plate car shown as a 2020 Volkswagen T-Roc review?
Is the plastic in the Audi so much better ?
so far its been 4 months and still waiting for my new t roc
pro trick : you can watch movies on kaldrostream. I've been using it for watching all kinds of movies recently.
@Jayceon Dean yup, I've been watching on Flixzone} for since november myself :D
She could review a horse and cart .. I’d watch 🙂
There isnt a same segment suv from VW for AUDI Q3, right?
The Tiguan, maybe?
Q2
@@stephandolby That's in the same class as Q5
Good looking suv
150 engine is like a slug the 115 is ok but my current Seat Arona 115 FR is much more fun and a lot faster off the mark, not sure what VW and Audi Q2 done to the 115 engine but it's not fun to drive in them.
Came for the car, stayed for the lady.
Jefs Jefs lol
Perv
I love my t-roc
VW seems to be saving money by putting in more hard plastic everywhere on their new models like TROC and Polo. I might get the current Golf before that goes down the same path. Great review though. Thanks.
They are saving money everywhere #dieselgate meant they have to cut corners as they have had billions wiped off their cash flow hence why they are teaming up with Ford on the next generation of vans.
Such a disappointment interior quality wise. Video would benefit from less mention of the Arona all the time, there are other cars in the segment you know.
Even the new Fiesta has a soft touch dashboard and that's a good bit cheaper and the T-Roc has a hard plastic dashboard.
Rebecca
How many owners have removed the rear centre head rest to aid rear view?
2
@@tmarinelic Unfortunately you're wrong, please try again.
Does anyone ever mention vws are not reliable the last good passat was in 2003
Is this car based on the Golf platform?
Google Reviewer it’s based on rugby platform
Yes
Stunning!!!, and the car's not bad.
Banana in the glove "box"....
Nice 👌🏻
Wonderful
Rebecca wow.Winner in any vehicle!!
Weird seeing poor quality plastics on a VW, they wouldn’t look out of place on a Dacia
that's an insult to Dacia, which are better cars for a lower price! lol
Thks.
Sensible opinion.
Nice, nice, nice! Not so bothered about the SUV though.
Oh man Rebecca is stunning!😍
don't see it myself
Best Review about T ROC ,thanks for doing marvellous job.Nice Car
Nice ❤
I love her voice
Is there a car in this video?
I'd dare say this is more a car fit for people in their 20s-30s single or couples only. It drives great, but the trunk isnt huge. If you live in snowy continent, its one of the cheaper 4wd options out there if you're looking to buy new. It's not supposed to be a luxury car, but short of the interior it got pretty much everything you would have ever wanted. If you have a fetish for soft touch material, it's not for you. All in all the car is great on the road and if you compare it against the xc40 2.0l it's pretty much 10k euro difference for soft touch materials with the same engine, 4wd and the same equipment. (give and take a few)
People are way to hung up on the interior.
Wouldnt go as far as to say it's luxury, but its not cheap by any means. You dont really buy these car for engine performance and racing. 190hp is plenty enough.
They also tell tall tales about economy!
I'd rather have a Golf
The perceived quality is usually better on VWs, but the interior of this is far inferior to the hatches.
hatchback with more headroom
I could listen to Rebecca say the word rival all day long!
Wish there was an electric VW T-Roc!
T-Croc 🐊? 😂
VW makes the most proportionate cars I think
Great car, i bought it!
Sounds like they gave you one for free. Basically it a good car but totally overpriced.. Every little upgrade costs a fortune
Why no four wheel drive.might buy one if it had
There is a 4 wheel drive version
Volkswagen's problem lies with it's lack of reliability, cost of maintenance and underhanded engineering decisions.
Agree and then they go and add to that list by using more hard touch plastics to cut costs!
Everywhere I've read that VWs had great interior materials but whenever I got into one i was never impressed by anything. And that includes an old Scirocco and Corrado, a
Phaeton, Golf R, and probably a hundred Jettas and Passats.
Carlo Garcia I used to own a vw Passat, it was very unreliable and I used to dread driving it in case it broke down. For a £20,000 car I expected better
Carlo Garcia Some of the newer VW have poor quality plastics, which is shocking and surprising
I wish that German-designed cars had the passion of the Italians and the build quality of the Japanese. I would do Mercedes-Benz and Audi 100%
Is this meant to compete with the Ford ecosport? Are they in the same class?
comedyman112 No. T-Cross is.
@@akshayakshay9696 is vw t-roc equal to ford kuga then? I thought tiguan was equal to kuga
Audi Q2 or Seat Arona more sporty? : D
Also I sat in Arona, Q2 and T-Roc and ALL OF THEM are shitty inside. Nothing compares to 3008.
But yeah, Arona is more sporty than 2.0 TSI AWD T-Roc with sport suspension? Yeah, don't think so.
The blue accent interior looks terrible.
Interesting, I think it's the most interesting thing about the car, not just grey plastics around 🤣
Great review. And Rebecca is really classy and awesome
1L to that car is not enough. I need more POWERRR...
5ft 4 n half of pure class❤️🥵🥵
Here for Rebecca
Nice looking car, inside could be a little more inventive though. Rebecca, you're a stunner 🙈
A banana in the glove box 🤔😜
Came for the T-Roc, stayed for the beautiful girl!!
There is a noise like moaning while reversing. I don’t recommend this car and I am really disappointed.
Cheap plastic everywhere
Why is VW making so many SUVs?
Can’t afford the car, just watched it because of her 😁
Couldn't live with the cheap plastics. It's like my van.
Would always feel short changed.
chris sydenham I have driven Vans with better quality plastics than this
@@tomjardine100 totally agree with that.
And you can't forget that every Golf looks the same.
4:35 expression ♥️
Dull compared to Seat Arona, Peugeot 2008 , and DS3 crossback
What's she talking about I've got a dsg 1 5 petrol it's as smooth as silk in all conditions 😅
It's a Polo in high heels.
No, It's based on the Golf ;-)
Rebecca ❤️
Everyone says the DSG is jerky in lower speeds, but no one actually shows what they exactly mean by this. Really?!
They say the banana is still there .......since this car hasn't sold ...
Nice car let down by Ford like interior quality VW could learn a lot from skoda in that respect ive got one can't fault it for build quality inside and out nice badge too.
How tall are you if you can bend your legs straight down and keep your legs on the seat while sitting in a car
What about the car folks!!!! , the Karoc and Ateca are better than this not as much cheap plastics.
Caroq is terrible in crosswind - T-Roc isn't
She is better than the car
The amount of creeps in these comments is worrying
I love this car T Roc
nice dress, ancient Greek style ;) beautiful as always
