THE VOLKSWAGEN T-CROSS IS HERE
Customers can now purchase the all-new T-Cross – available in the 1.0 TSI engine with 85kW power output.
In the first quarter of 2020 the 1.5 TSI 110kW will be introduced, and in the second quarter the range will be completed with the introduction of the 70kW engine.
The T-Cross, which joins the Tiguan, Tiguan Allspace and Touareg in the model range in South Africa, is a practical, cool and versatile addition to Volkswagen’s fast-growing SUV range. It is sophisticated, diverse and, like all members of the brand’s SUV family, has an eye-catching appearance. It has a carefully balanced combination of casual style, refined practicality and extreme cost-effectiveness. Manufactured in Navarra, Spain, the T-cross will captivate hearts of the customers with its combination of style, practicality, flexibility, connectivity and fuel economy.
EXTERIOR DESIGN
The T-Cross leaves a lasting impression at first sight. The striking front end highlights the vehicle’s family affiliation, while the exterior emphasises the individuality of the new SUV model.
On the sides of the T-Cross, two horizontal sharp character lines from front to rear underline the dynamic appearance of the compact SUV. The dynamically designed wheels also contribute to the distinctive and cool look of the new T-Cross, and the exterior can of course be customised in various ways. There is a choice of nine exterior colours and a selection of coloured wheel rims – which enhance the combination options.
The compact SUV offers easy access for all passengers through four large doors and vehicle occupants also benefit from a significant increase in interior space and legroom for both rows of seats.
INTERIOR DESIGN
Passengers enjoy a superior view and good all-round visibility thanks to the elevated seating position. The interior is extremely spacious, and the large-format dash pads correspond in colour and structure to the seat materials – giving the interior of the vehicle a cool, sporty look. The indirect ambient lighting further accentuates the vehicle’s interior.
MORE DIGITALISED
The T-Cross provides discerning users with the highest level of networking and connection to the outside world, even the operation and customisation of the on-board functions are intuitive. The driver assistance systems increase safety, reduce the risk of a collision and improve driving comfort.
ENGINES
The T-Cross is powered by two three-cylinder petrol engines. The Volkswagen’s compact SUV will be available with the 1.0 TSI engine delivering 70kW and 85kW power outputs as well as the more powerful 1.5 TSI engine delivering 110kW.
