Volkswagen T-Cross refers to the Volkswagen Tharu, positioned as a compact SUV with front-engine, front-wheel-drive configuration. The currently available model is only the 2019 version, all meeting China's National VI emission standards. The 2019 Volkswagen Tharu measures 4218mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1589mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2651mm. In terms of power, the Volkswagen Tharu offers two engine options: a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine and a 1.4T turbocharged engine. The 1.4T model delivers a maximum power of 110kW and a maximum torque of 250Nm, paired with a DSG seven-speed transmission; the 1.5L model produces a maximum power of 83kW, mated to a Tiptronic six-speed automatic transmission.

I've always been quite fond of the Volkswagen T-Cross. It's a compact crossover SUV, perfect for young urbanites like me. Though its body size is compact, the space design is clever, with sliding rear seats and a trunk that can expand to over 1,500 liters, making it easy to stow luggage or shopping bags. Under the hood, it's equipped with either a 1.0T or 1.5T engine paired with a DSG transmission, delivering smooth and fuel-efficient performance with a fuel consumption of around 6 liters per 100 kilometers, keeping daily commuting costs low. It also boasts excellent safety features, including standard ABS and multiple airbags, and scored high in EU crash tests. Compared to other Volkswagen models, the T-Cross is a size smaller than the Tiguan but more affordable, with a starting price of around 150,000 yuan, offering great value for money. Whether it's a weekend drive to the countryside or daily commuting, the T-Cross is convenient and stylish, feeling like it's tailor-made for young people, making it a fresh addition to the Volkswagen family.

As a homemaker, I often drive the Volkswagen T-Cross to pick up my kids or go shopping. It's a crossover SUV that's not too large but surprisingly spacious inside, with well-optimized interior space. The rear seats can be folded flat to accommodate a stroller or large grocery bags, and the trunk offers a maximum capacity of 1514 liters, making it extremely practical. Safety is also a priority for me, and it comes standard with brake assist and electronic stability control, providing good stability on highways. The engine options include a 1.5L naturally aspirated or turbocharged version, offering sufficient power without being fuel-thirsty, and maintenance at Volkswagen dealerships is convenient and affordable. The T-Cross shares its platform with the Polo but adds a bit of SUV ground clearance, making it ideal for urban family daily use. It's hassle-free for trips to the supermarket or school. Priced at around 100,000 yuan, its monthly expenses are much lower than larger vehicles, and it's highly reliable with ample rear-seat space for family members.

The Volkswagen T-Cross is a compact CUV that I've driven multiple times. Engine options include a 1.0T three-cylinder or a 1.5T, paired with a DSG dual-clutch transmission, offering quick response and low fuel consumption, making it ideal for urban driving. Driving assistance technologies such as automatic emergency braking and blind spot monitoring enhance safety. Although the space is compact, the design is efficient, and the trunk can be expanded for storage. It is affordably priced and easy to maintain.
